##How Much Are BTSE Fees?

One of the stand-out features of BTSE is its highly competitive trading fees. For general users, trading fees for futures are 0.01% for maker orders and 0.05% for taker orders, while spot trading fees start at 0.20% for both maker and taker orders.

However, for traders looking to take advantage of even lower fees, BTSE has implemented a 10-tier VIP program. This program rewards users with fee reductions based on their trading volume and BTSE token holdings. For example, the VIP program can reduce futures fees down to as low as -0.02% for maker orders and 0.036% for taker orders, while spot trading fees can be reduced to 0.02% for maker orders and 0.06% for taker orders.

In addition to the VIP program, all users can enjoy 0% maker fees on all markets by simply staking 100 BTSE tokens. The staking program has 8 tiers, and by staking the maximum of 20,000 BTSE tokens, maker fees become a rebate at -0.003%, which applies to both futures and spot trading. There are no volume requirements attached to the BTSE staking program.

To reward new sign-ups, BTSE also offers a 25% discount on trading fees for the first 30 days for users who have been referred.
