Fee Discount Calculator
A fee looks like loose change past the decimal point, but once volume picks up it's real money. Enter roughly how much you trade in a month, your fee rate and the discount rate your account actually has, and this lays out the three figures: the fee you'd owe, the discounted part, and what you actually pay.
How to use this fee discount calculator
Three numbers. Monthly volume is your buys and sells added up over a month. That is cumulative turnover, not account balance: a 1,000 order round-tripped ten times is 20,000 of volume. For the fee rate, enter the maker or taker rate of your tier; Binance sets it by VIP level and by whether you pay fees in BNB, and the current figure is on its fee schedule. The discount percentage is yours to enter. It is pre-filled with 20%, the maximum this site's referral code offers; set it to the rate your own account page shows, or to 0 if you have none.
The right side then gives the three figures: the fee you'd owe, the discounted part at the rate you entered, and what you still pay. The two bars below put the original fee and the discounted part side by side.
How the three figures are calculated
A fee is paid on every fill, whatever the trade ends up making or losing. With 50,000 USDT of monthly volume at a 0.1% rate, the fee is 50,000 × 0.1% = 50 USDT. Enter 0 as the discount and you pay 50; enter 20 and the discount is 50 × 20% = 10, leaving 40 to pay. The tool does nothing beyond these three lines:
- Original fee = monthly volume × fee rate. This is the full amount owed with no discount at all.
- Saved = original fee × the discount percentage you entered.
- Actually paid = original fee − saved.
Binance also lets you pay fees in BNB at a reduced rate and lowers rates by VIP tier. How those combine with a referral discount is set out on Binance's official fee schedule.
