English-US ActiveTrader and exchange API schedule for standard non-stablecoin spot pairs; excludes Gemini Mode, stablecoins, derivatives, margin and funding. Does not establish regional eligibility.
Provider fee information · Schedule checked .
Your tier is set by trailing trading volume or total asset balance, whichever produces the lower fee, and is recalculated daily. Maker pricing applies when an order rests on the book before executing; immediate matches take the taker rate, and partly filled orders can incur both. Order type alone doesn't decide the charge: a limit order that matches straight away still takes the taker rate.
Stablecoin pairs, derivatives and margin each carry separate rates, and Gemini Mode has its own schedule. This is the English-US published schedule, and it doesn't establish eligibility in Australia or any other country. Check your account tier and the correct product via the ActiveTrader fee schedule and the Gemini fee index before comparing rates.
