Bitget’s Futures Fee Calculations

Futures trading fees futures fee on Bitget is calculated based on your trading pair and whether you are a Maker or a Taker.

What are Makers and Takers?

Put simply:

- Makers provide liquidity by creating a market for a token on the exchange.

- Takers remove liquidity by fulfilling open orders.

 

You are a Maker if you create buying or selling orders that aren’t carried out immediately, you wait for orders to be filled (e.g., “sell BTC when the price hits $100k”). Hence, by playing the Maker role, you create liquidity for the exchange - meaning it’s easier for others to buy or sell when the condition meets. For this reason, the exchange will reward makers with lower transaction fees.

 

On the other hand, you are a Taker if you fill someone else’s orders. You make use of the liquidity (that created by the Makers) to easily buy or sell assets instantly. By playing the Taker role and using the liquidity, you would often have to pay a higher transaction fee.

Futures transaction fee formula on Bitget

 

Transaction fee = Order value x Fee rate

 

Order value = (Number of contracts x Price)

 

For example: 

Trader A establishes a long position for 1 BTCUSDT futures contract at market price. Trader B closes a long position for 1 BTCUSDT futures contract with a limit order at 40,000 USDT. When these orders are both executed at 40,000 USDT:

 

Taker fee of Trader A = 1 × 40,000 × 0.06% = 24 USDT

Maker fee of Trader B = 1 × 40,000 × 0.02% = 8 USDT
