A $1,000 trade, in perspective
Illustrative arithmetic using the snapshot rates above, assuming the displayed base tier and a standard spot pair. Each column represents one execution role for one $1,000 trade.
| Platform | Maker fee | Taker fee |
|---|---|---|
| Gemini ActiveTrader | $6.00 | $12.00 |
These examples exclude spread, slippage, funding, withdrawal, network, and other charges. A subsequent sale is another trade. Lower percentage fees do not establish lower total costs.
Calculate your own fee scenarios →Before choosing a platform
Are you eligible in your jurisdiction, and is the pair covered by standard spot or stablecoin pricing?
- Verify your location, legal entity, account eligibility, and intended trading pair.
- Check custody terms, withdrawal controls, recovery methods, and any asset-transfer restrictions.
- Compare the full deposit-to-withdrawal cost. Do not deposit extra assets or trade more just to qualify for a cheaper fee tier.

What remains unverified
Actual execution quality, liquidity at your trade size, support response times, solvency, and your account-specific terms. Provider documentation is evidence of what the provider publishes, not independent proof of safety. We do not name a “best” or “safest” exchange.
