The fee is only the starting point.

Published standard trading rates

On October 12, 2026, Pionex’s public fee page listed standard spot maker and taker fees of 0.050%, futures maker fees of 0.020% and futures taker fees of 0.050%. Leveraged-token maker and taker rates were 0.100%.

Rates can change and may vary by account tier, product or promotion. Confirm your actual rate in your account and the official schedule before trading.

A simple spot example

At a 0.05% rate, a hypothetical $1,000 executed purchase costs $0.50. A later $1,000 executed sale costs another $0.50. This $1.00 example excludes price movement, spread and other charges; it is not a return projection.

Other costs to budget for

• Spread: the gap between the prices at which you can immediately buy and sell.
• Slippage: execution can differ from the price you expected.
• Funding: perpetual futures can involve payments that change over time.
• Withdrawals: charges and minimums depend on the asset and network; verify before transferring.
• Conversion and third-party payment charges: depend on your funding route.
• Tax and record keeping: obligations depend on your jurisdiction.

Why frequent trading deserves scrutiny

A bot can generate many small trades. Evaluate net results across the whole position after realized fees and unrealized losses, rather than looking only at individual winning fills. A strategy that appears attractive before execution costs may be unprofitable afterward.
