Crypto exchange fees, compared side by side
Every maker, taker and withdrawal fee below is taken from the exchange's own published schedule and stamped with the date we last checked it. When a fee moves, we keep the old value.
Affiliate disclosure. Some links on this page are referral links. If you open an account through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Referral arrangements never affect the fees we publish or the order exchanges appear in — see our methodology.
