In the wild world of crypto trading, where fortunes can be made or lost quicker than you can spell the word “Blockchain,” understanding maker vs taker fees is like having a secret weapon in your trading arsenal. Cryptocurrency exchanges play by a unique set of rules when it comes to fees and they are typically divided into two categories: maker and taker fees. Makers are the creators of market depth and liquidity, while takers are the executors of existing orders. Now, why does this matter? Because it’s essential to know how the market and order executions work for a professional trader.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this article, we thoroughly analyze what maker and taker fees are, how they work, the differences between maker and taker fees, and how crypto exchanges structure their fees based on these two categories. Moreover, we evaluate maker and taker fees on some of the top crypto exchanges and introduce a few solutions regarding lowering these fees. Finally, we present Finestel\u2019s innovative solutions for large asset management businesses and high-frequency traders to lower their maker and taker fees.<\/span><\/p>\n

Introduction to Maker vs Taker Fees<\/b><\/h2>\n

In any financial market, there are typically two distinct categories of orders, makers and takers. Makers are the orders that make up the order book and provide liquidity. Limit orders are the primary makers. They can be buy or sell orders set at a specific price mark for a determined volume. You can monitor the limit orders via the exchange\u2019s order book.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Introduction<\/p>\n

Taker orders, on the contrary, cannot be viewed before getting filled. They are instant orders, such as market orders, that are placed and filled instantly. For a market order to be executed, it matches the limit order at the nearest price mark, depending on the direction (whether it\u2019s a buy or a sell). While maker orders are the ones that shape the market, takers are responsible for moving the price.<\/span><\/p>\n

What Are Maker Fees?<\/b><\/h3>\n

You can think of makers as the architects of the market. They set limit orders at various price marks, showing their willingness to buy or sell a specific volume of the asset. In this case, when the maker order, which is typically a limit order, is filled, the trader will be charged a fee by the exchange. Yet, as an incentive for being patient and providing liquidity, maker fees are lower than taker fees.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taker Fees Explained<\/b><\/h3>\n

Taker fees are charges for the impatient. If you are a taker, you do not want to wait for your order to get filled. Therefore, you execute a market order to match with one of the existing limit orders and it will be done almost instantly. Think of makers as the ones offering the orders and takers as the ones who take them. Unlike makers, takers are charged with a higher fee, as a result of their impatience and willingness to get filled quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n
