    Bybit Fees Explained (2026): Spot, Perpetuals & Withdrawals

    Bybit trading, transfer and card fees: filled-order examples, account limits, funding, withdrawals, refunds and temporary holds.

    Bybit Fees at a Glance

    The reference rates below cover the Bybit global platform's general VIP0 crypto-to-crypto spot and USDT perpetual products, checked 2026-09-07. They do not establish access to a product or apply to every regional entity, special trading zone or account. Your account's displayed rate and product terms take precedence.

    Crypto spot trading

    General VIP0 reference: maker 0.10% and taker 0.10%. Fiat pairs and special trading zones can have different schedules.

    USDT perpetual contracts

    General VIP0 reference: maker 0.02% and taker 0.055%, charged on executed notional. Funding and other applicable costs are separate.

    VIP conditions

    Qualifying balances and trading activity can affect your tier. The regular perpetual schedule reaches a zero maker fee at its highest tier; separate institutional programs do not establish a retail VIP rebate.

    Crypto withdrawals

    On-chain withdrawal charges depend on the coin and network and are not a percentage of the amount. Check the current fee and minimum in the withdrawal preview; fiat withdrawals and internal transfers follow different rules.

    Reference rates for general VIP0 products

    Reference checked 2026-09-07: general global VIP0 rates, per execution. A maker adds resting liquidity; a taker executes against existing liquidity. A limit order can be either. See the official fee schedule and your account's actual rate. Special products, regions and promotions may differ.

    Understand crypto withdrawal charges

    Bybit's on-chain crypto withdrawal charge is set by coin and network and is fixed with respect to the withdrawal amount. It can be revised, so use the current preview for the charge and minimum. This exchange charge is distinct from the miner fee on a batched blockchain transfer; the latter can be adjusted with network conditions. See the official withdrawal FAQ.

    Check that the recipient supports the exact token and network, and verify the address and any required memo or tag. A cheaper network is useful only when compatible. Consolidating withdrawals may reduce repeated charges but also changes transfer timing and custody exposure. Internal Bybit transfers have no withdrawal fee; fiat and payment-method charges have separate schedules. The official fee overview also covers costs beyond this page's two trading rows.

    Four checks when comparing your costs

    1

    Check execution role, not just order type

    A limit order that executes immediately can pay taker fees. A post-only order is cancelled if it would execute immediately, but does not guarantee a fill. Compare fees on actual executed notional together with spread, slippage and the risk of not executing. See Bybit's maker/taker explanation.

    2

    Use your actual VIP rate

    Check the qualifying criteria and fee shown in your account. The standard VIP schedule does not promise maker rebates. Extra trades, borrowing or deposits made only to obtain status add costs and risks that can exceed the fee reduction.

    3

    Verify withdrawal compatibility and the preview

    Confirm the destination token, network, address and required memo or tag, then compare the displayed charge and minimum. Check fiat or internal-transfer rules separately. Price alone does not determine whether a transfer is suitable.

    4

    Include funding over the holding period

    Perpetual funding passes between holders of opposite positions. The payment depends on position notional, the applicable rate and whether the position is held at settlement; intervals vary by instrument. Rates can change sign or be zero. Funding may be smaller or larger than trading fees, and receiving it does not guarantee a positive total return.

    Choose the product and account first

    These two reference rows are not the complete VIP schedule. Check My Fee Rate and the official full schedule for your product and tier. An Austrian or other Bybit EU account follows its own entity’s terms; global USDT perpetual rates do not establish EU derivatives access or pricing. XAUUSDT, fiat pairs and special zones need their exact contract or product schedule.

    Commission for a linear fill = executed quantity × execution price × fee rate. For a hypothetical 10,000 USDT fill at 0.055%, the fee is 5.50 USDT. Equal entry and exit fills at that rate cost 11 USDT together, before funding, spread and slippage. If 200 USDT consisted solely of fees at 0.055%, it represents about 363,636.36 USDT of cumulative executed value; actual mixed rates or other charges require the transaction history. Margin is not the fee base. Inverse contracts use their settlement currency and contract specification.

    Converting USDT to USD is not a guaranteed one-for-one cash redemption. A crypto-to-crypto order book, a fiat pair and One-Click Sell can quote different total proceeds. The checked global VIP0 initial fiat-pair reference is 0.15% maker and 0.20% taker, subject to volume and account terms. For BRL/USDC, first confirm the exact pair is available; use its actual maker rate and execution price. In a conversion preview, compare the cash received, quoted exchange rate, spread and any service charge.

    Deposits, transfers and bank withdrawals

    Bybit’s fee overview lists no charge for receiving an on-chain crypto deposit. The sending exchange or wallet can still charge a withdrawal or network fee. For a transfer from another venue, check both sides: the same token and network, recipient address, memo or tag, deposit minimum and confirmations. A quote for 19 BTC cannot be inferred from one for a 19 USD equivalent. Bank withdrawals, including BRL, have currency and payment-method fees, limits and minimums shown in the fiat withdrawal preview; crypto withdrawal rules are different.

    Card fees, temporary holds and refunds

    Use the schedule for the country and entity that issued your card. The listed global card programs currently show no annual fee, but issuance, replacement, FX or international fees, crypto conversion and ATM charges are separate. The September 2026 Brazil schedule lists 1.5% FX and 0.9% crypto conversion where applicable; its 1% FX padding is a temporary authorization buffer, not automatically a final charge. The unused portion is released after settlement. ATM and merchant charges can add costs; a spending limit is not a fee.

    The card transaction FAQ separately addresses IOF on Brazilian foreign-card transactions; it does not establish the tax treatment of a BRL bank withdrawal or every crypto transfer. Check the transaction breakdown and applicable card terms. A merchant refund and release of an authorization hold are different processes. Follow the refund status in transaction history and contact official support if review is needed; do not assume all fees, FX differences or rewards are automatically reversed.

    Do I pay a trading fee if my order is not filled?

    An order with no execution has no trading commission. A partial fill is charged only on the executed part; cancelling the unfilled remainder does not refund fees already incurred. An existing position can still incur funding or borrowing costs even while another order is waiting.

    How is the Bybit VIP level decided?
    Bybit applies its published qualification criteria, including eligible balances and trading activity, to determine the account's tier. Check the current account assessment rather than assuming every asset or transaction qualifies. The ordinary VIP perpetual schedule reaches a zero maker fee, while institutional arrangements are separate.
    How do I lower my Bybit fees?
    Compare the actual account rate and execution role, as well as spread, slippage, funding and withdrawal charges. Limit orders can execute as takers; post-only orders may not fill. Extra activity just to reach VIP status can cost more than the fee saving. For withdrawals, verify destination compatibility and the current preview.

    Derivatives & Leveraged Products — Important Risk Warning

    Derivatives and leveraged products are complex and carry a high risk of rapid, substantial losses. Depending on the product and account rules, losses can exceed the initial margin or money committed. A stand-alone purchased option can lose its entire premium plus transaction costs; writing options, exercising into another position, or combining positions can create additional obligations. An uncovered call writer can face unlimited loss. Applicable legal protections can affect the loss boundary.

    You should carefully consider whether you understand how derivatives work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. This content is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to trade derivatives.

    Legal availability and regulatory protections depend on the product, service, provider and jurisdiction. In the EU, check the applicable investment-services rules, including MiFID II where relevant, and any product restrictions. Before trading, verify with the relevant regulator whether the provider has the permissions required for the service and whether the product may be offered to you. A website being accessible, or a product appearing on this website, does not establish authorization or eligibility.
