USDPT trading fees — FAQ
Which exchange has the lowest USDPT trading fee?
Kraken, at 0.01–0.8% taker and 0–0.4% maker on the base tier. Trading fees are charged per order as a percentage of the trade value, so a lower rate matters most if you trade often.
What is the difference between maker and taker fees?
A maker order adds liquidity — it sits on the order book until someone trades against it. A taker order removes liquidity by matching an existing order immediately. Exchanges charge takers more, and some pay makers a rebate. Trading USDPT with limit orders that rest on the book gets you the maker rate.
Can I pay lower fees on USDPT trades?
Yes — 1 of these exchanges cut fees when you pay in their own token (for example Gate: −10% paying fees in GT). 2 exchanges also run VIP ladders where 30-day volume or token holdings lower your rate.
Do futures fees differ from spot fees on USDPT?
Yes. Perpetual futures are usually cheaper per trade than spot — the lowest base futures taker fee here is 0.05% on Kraken — but futures also carry a funding rate paid between longs and shorts every few hours, which is not a fee the exchange keeps.
