Tool

Trading Fee Estimator

Enter your monthly trading volume and the exchange's maker/taker rate. The tool shows the real cost — applied on both sides of every trade — so you can see what a headline bonus actually has to beat.

How we make money: we earn a commission when you sign up with an exchange through our links. That never changes what we recommend or how we rank — rankings follow our published review criteria and are re-checked on a fixed schedule. Read the full disclosure. Crypto risk: crypto assets are volatile and can lose value, are not FDIC-insured, and are not a bank deposit. This is not financial advice — do your own research before trading.

Why both sides matter

Every round-trip trade (buy then sell) pays the fee twice. A 0.25% rate on $1,000 of volume is $2.50 one-way, but $5.00 for a full buy-and-sell cycle. That is the real cost the signup bonus has to beat.

Estimator only

Actual cost depends on your order types, volume tier, and the exchange's current schedule. This is educational, not financial advice.
