    Margin and P&L: USDT. Prices and notional: USDT.

    Changing the contract or margin coin clears amounts and prices. Enter values in the new units.

    The worked examples and formula walkthroughs on this page use linear USDT/USDC contracts unless stated otherwise.

    Fees use equal quote notional on entry and exit. Coin-margined fees use the entered price for both executions. Account, region and product exceptions may apply.

    Products without a verified applicable rate are excluded from fee rankings.

    Calculate Your Trading Fees

    Trade Type

    Fee basis

    An execution is one fill of the volume below. A round trip counts the entry and the exit as two executions of equal size.

    Calculate with your own fee rates

    Use the product, notional, execution basis and monthly count selected above. Enter the maker or taker rate that applies to each fill. These manual rates do not change the reference exchange table.

    Enter 0.06 for a 0.06% fee. Zero is a confirmed zero rate; leave unknown rates blank. A negative rate represents a rebate. Rates must be between −100% and 100%.

    Enter valid rates for the selected execution basis and a positive notional to see an estimate.

    Per-execution fee = notional × rate ÷ 100. Monthly totals multiply by the selected count; annual totals use 12 identical months. Negative totals are net rebates. Funding, borrowing, spread, slippage and transfer charges are excluded. Confirm the applicable product, tier, pair and eligibility with your venue.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How are crypto exchange fees calculated?+
    Trading commission is generally executed notional × the applicable rate. At 0.10%, a 10,000-unit execution costs 10 units. If entry and exit have equal notionals and the same rate, a round-trip trade costs double: 20 units. When prices, quantities or rates differ, calculate each fill separately. The table uses displayed default taker schedules, not your personal quote.
    What's the difference between maker and taker fees?+
    A maker fill adds liquidity by resting on the order book; a taker fill matches existing liquidity. A limit order can cross the book and be a taker, or have fills with different roles. Maker rates are not universally lower or rebates: use the exact product and account schedule. This comparison models taker fees; the fee guide explains both roles. Use the custom-rate inputs for your actual maker or taker execution rates; entry and exit can have different rates.
    Why do fees matter so much?+
    Commissions accumulate with executed volume. For 20 executions a month of $10,000 each, a constant 0.10% rate gives $2,400 a year and 0.80% gives $19,200, a modeled $16,800 difference. Counting entry and exit as a round trip doubles both totals when sizes and rates match. This is simple fee multiplication, not compounded investment return. Spread, slippage, funding, transfer costs and eligibility can change the overall comparison.
    Are futures trading fees lower than spot fees?+
    Compare the exact products and account tiers. Some futures execution rates are lower than spot rates, but this is not universal and a lower rate does not imply lower overall cost or risk. Commission applies to executed notional, not just margin. Funding, borrowing where applicable, spread, slippage and liquidation charges are separate from this trading-fee table.
    Do any exchanges offer zero-fee trading?+
    A zero-fee offer may apply only to specified pairs, order roles, users or dates. Check its current conditions and remaining spread, funding or transfer costs. The reference table excludes token-payment discounts and promotions. Zero trading commission does not establish zero total cost. An eligible 25% discount on 0.10% gives 0.075%; you can enter 0.075 in the custom-rate field. The tool does not determine eligibility or apply discounts automatically.

    Trading, transfers and wallet costs

    This table compares the listed exchange products and dated default taker rates. It does not quote every ETH broker, CFD, wallet, conversion or account tier. Commission = executed notional × fee rate. At an assumed 0.06%, a 10,000-unit fill costs 6 units; equal entry and exit fills at that same rate cost 12. Use each fill’s actual rate and notional when they differ.

    A withdrawal charge can be fixed, percentage-based or specific to the asset, network and payment route. Check the current fee, minimum, any receiving charge and the net amount received. It need not equal the network fee paid by the exchange. A deposit, wallet transfer, fiat withdrawal and crypto trade are different operations.

    An ordinary centralized order-book fill is recorded on the exchange’s ledger and does not itself require an on-chain gas payment. An on-chain wallet transaction can require a network fee; on Ethereum this depends on gas used and the base fee plus priority fee. An exchange may also charge for moving funds. A gas estimate does not quote its withdrawal charge.

    Before choosing a route, confirm that both sender and receiver support the exact asset and network, including any memo or tag. A cheaper incompatible chain is not a substitute. Compare the full quote, including spread, conversion and payment charges. Combining withdrawals only reduces repeated fixed charges when the route actually uses them and the transfer remains suitable.
