#CryptoFees101 Here the commissions on Binance are well explained
Attention to everyone using Binance! If you don't understand how they charge you commissions, it's very likely that you are losing money without realizing it.
Here I explain it to you simply, with data that applies for June 2025:
1. The basic commission: 0.1% per transaction
Each time you make a transaction on Binance, they charge you a commission of 0.1%. This may seem small, but if you make many transactions, the cost adds up. For example, if you make 50 transactions of $100 a month, you are already paying $5 in commissions without realizing it.
2. Save by paying with BNB
You can reduce this commission to 0.075% if you choose to pay your fees with BNB (the cryptocurrency of Binance). The difference is small with small amounts, but it becomes significant when moving large sums of money. Activate this option in your settings to save automatically!
3. Maker vs. Taker: Patience or hurry?
Binance differentiates between two types of transactions, and this affects your commissions:
* Maker: If you place an order that does not execute immediately, like a limit order waiting for a specific price, you are adding liquidity to the market. For this, Binance rewards you with a lower commission (starting from 0.1%).
* Taker: If your order executes instantly, like a market order that buys or sells at the current price, you are "taking" liquidity from the market. Here, the commission is higher (up to 0.2%).
If you usually only use market orders, you are paying more than necessary with each transaction.
4. VIP benefits for large volumes
If you trade large amounts (over $1 million a month) or have more than 25 BNB, you can access VIP levels that lower your commissions by up to 80%. You don't need to be a total "big fish"; if you trade frequently, leveling up can mean significant savings.
