How this is calculated
$1,000,000.00 × (70% × 0.055% + 30% × 0.020%) = $445.00 per month
$445.00 × 12 = $5,340.00 per year

* No published rate covers this combination directly — this is inferred from the exchange's own promotion terms, not read off a page that states it.
The table above shows the exchange's own published maker and taker fees for spot and futures markets. We re-check these against the exchange's fee page on a schedule and show the date they were last verified — if a number here doesn't match what your account shows, your account tier or a promotional rate may have moved you to a different level within the exchange.
Maker and taker: what's the difference
A maker order adds liquidity — it rests on the order book until someone else trades against it, which is why exchanges charge it a lower fee. A taker order removes liquidity by matching an order that's already resting, and pays more for the immediacy. The distinction trips people up on limit orders specifically: a limit order that crosses the spread and fills immediately executes as taker, not maker, even though it was placed as a limit order.
Why volume discounts don't solve this
Exchanges advertise lower fees at higher VIP tiers, but the thresholds are set for market makers and funds, not active retail traders. Reaching Bybit's VIP 1 tier requires either a $250,000 account balance or $10,000,000 in 30-day futures volume — a trader doing $1–3M a month pays the exact same base rate as someone who trades once a week.
Where the rebate comes from
Exchanges pay affiliates a share of the trading fees generated by the traders they refer. A rebate program passes part of that affiliate payment back to the trader who generated it. Your fee rate on the exchange itself does not change — the rebate is paid separately, out of what the exchange already pays the affiliate.
What this calculator doesn't account for
This calculator covers maker/taker trading fees and the rebate on top of them — nothing else. It does not include funding payments on perpetual futures, the bid-ask spread, slippage on execution, or blockchain network fees on deposits and withdrawals. Listing what's out of scope is deliberate: those costs are real, they belong in a full accounting of what trading costs you, and folding them into this number would make it a guess rather than a calculation.
