Fee Schedule

VDEX is designed to offer ultra-efficient trading with a transparent, trader-friendly fee structure. Fees are optimized to reward liquidity providers while keeping costs low for active traders.

• Maker Rebates: Earned by placing limit orders that add liquidity to the order book.

• Taker Fees: Charged when executing market orders that remove liquidity from the order book.

• Volume-Based Tiers: Traders with higher trading volume unlock lower fees and better rebates, promoting capital efficiency for both casual and high-frequency traders.

Unlike traditional decentralized exchanges, VDEX eliminates on-chain gas fees for trades. Traders only incur fees when executing orders, meaning you can trade as frequently as you want without worrying about network costs. The only on-chain fees occur when depositing or withdrawing assets, ensuring frictionless trading once funds are on the platform.
