How to Reduce Trading Fees on Binance
Reducing fees on Binance can save you a considerable amount of money in the long run, especially if you trade frequently. Here are the most effective methods:
* Using BNB to pay trading fees: This is the simplest and most common method.
* How to do it:
* Make sure you have BNB in your Binance Spot Wallet.
* Go to your dashboard (profile) on Binance. * Look for the "Use BNB to pay fees" or "Trading Fees" option (this is often found in the "User Center" or "Dashboard" section).
* Enable this option.
* Benefit: You automatically receive a 25% discount on your spot and margin trading fees, and a 10% discount on futures fees.
* Become a Binance VIP user: The higher your trading volume and/or the more BNB you hold, the higher your VIP level will be, and the lower your fees will be.
* How to do it: It's automatic. Binance calculates your VIP level based on:
* Your 30-day trading volume (spot or futures)
* Your 30-day average BNB balance
* Benefit: VIP levels offer significant fee discounts, which increase with each level. You can view the fee schedules on the Binance official website in the "Fees" section.
* Use Limit Orders Instead of Market Orders:
* Explanation :
* A Market order is executed immediately at the best available price, and you are generally considered a "taker," which incurs higher fees.
* A Limit order is placed in the order book and is only executed when the price reaches the level you specify. If your order is executed, you are generally considered a "maker," which incurs lower fees.
* How to: When creating your trading order, select "Limit" instead of "Market."
