Fees are only part of execution cost. Funding, spreads, slippage and liquidation charges are excluded. Venue availability and your actual account rates may differ.

02 / READ THE FINE PRINT

Published rates.
Clear conditions.

Trading fees are one part of choosing a venue.

01

Start with standard rates

The main table compares each venue's standard entry-tier maker and taker rates. VIP, staking and token discounts are not applied. Open a venue's schedule to see its published tiers and qualification rules.

02

Lowest means this table

Lowest-fee labels include ties among the venues shown, at their base tiers. They do not account for execution quality, liquidity, venue access or other costs.

03

Check the source

Rates are dated snapshots from official documentation, not live quotes. Product and regional conditions differ. Confirm the rate that applies to your account at the venue.

04

Know what's excluded

Funding, spreads, slippage and liquidation charges are excluded. Negative maker rates in a VIP schedule are rebates; they are not the base rate unless explicitly shown.
