How to calculate MEXC trading commissions? (Fee Schedule)

Fee Structure Overview

1. MEXC applies a maker-taker model for spot trading, where makers (limit orders that add liquidity) are charged 0% fee, while takers (market orders or limit orders that immediately match) incur a base fee of 0.05%.

2. Futures trading follows the same principle: makers pay 0%, takers are charged 0.02% on perpetual and inverse contracts.

3. Users who complete KYC verification receive an immediate rate reduction from the unverified baseline of 0.2% (bid + ask) down to 0.1% (bid + ask) for spot pairs.

4. Fee tiers escalate based on 30-day cumulative USDT-denominated trading volume, with higher volumes unlocking progressively lower rates across both spot and futures markets.

5. The MXC utility token functions as a discount instrument — enabling up to 50% reduction on applicable fees when enabled in account settings and sufficient MXC balance is held.

Spot Trading Fee Calculation

1. A user places a market buy order for 5,000 USDT worth of BTC/USDT at a current price of $62,000 per BTC. With a verified account at Level 2 (0.09% taker fee), the raw fee equals 5,000 × 0.0009 = 4.5 USDT.

2. If MXC fee deduction is activated and the real-time MXC/USDT exchange rate is 0.0012, the system deducts 3,750 MXC tokens (4.5 ÷ 0.0012) instead of charging USDT directly.

3. Unverified accounts face a flat 2% bid-ask aggregate fee — meaning a 5,000 USDT trade incurs 100 USDT in total commission before any token offset.

4. Currency conversion between stablecoins (e.g., USDC to USDT) carries zero commission, provided both assets are listed in MEXC’s supported conversion matrix.

5. Spot margin trading introduces no additional fee layer beyond standard taker/maker rates; interest accrual operates separately under isolated or cross-margin parameters.

Futures Commission Mechanics

1. For a 10 BTC long position opened via market order on BTC/USDT perpetuals, with a leverage of 20x and entry price at $61,800, the taker fee applied is 0.02% of notional value: (10 × 61,800) × 0.0002 = 123.6 USDT.

2. Funding payments occur every 8 hours and are independent of commission calculation; they reflect the difference between mark and index price, not transaction cost.

3. Liquidation events trigger no extra fee beyond the standard taker charge incurred at entry — however, forced closures may result in negative equity absorption depending on insurance fund coverage.

4. Multi-asset collateral mode does not alter fee percentages but affects margin efficiency and thus indirectly influences effective cost per unit of exposure.

5. API-based algorithmic orders follow identical fee logic as web interface executions — no surcharge applies solely due to automation channel usage.

Withdrawal and Conversion Fees

1. ETH withdrawals on Ethereum mainnet carry a fixed fee of 0.005 ETH, irrespective of withdrawal amount or user tier status.

2. USDT transfers across TRON, ERC-20, and BEP-20 networks differ: TRON charges 1 USDT, ERC-20 demands 25 USDT gas equivalent, BEP-20 requires 0.1 BNB converted at real-time rate.

3. Cross-chain bridging services (e.g., BTC → WBTC) involve two separate fee layers: source chain withdrawal + destination chain minting, each subject to native network congestion pricing.

4. Off-chain internal transfers between MEXC accounts are processed instantly with zero commission and no blockchain confirmation delay.

5. Stablecoin swaps executed via MEXC’s integrated aggregator engine apply dynamic slippage tolerance but retain the underlying zero-fee conversion policy for eligible pairs.
