Bitget has announced an enticing new pricing structure for its stock perpetuals and precious metal perpetuals, effective from February 10 until April 30, 2026. Following this update, the platform will implement zero maker fees and ultra-low taker fees, significantly enhancing its competitive edge in the market.
The reduction in fees for stock perpetuals is particularly notable, with maker fees dropping from 0.02% to zero. Taker fees have also been slashed to as low as 0.0065%. For precious metal perpetuals, including contracts linked to gold, maker fees are similarly set to zero, while taker fees can be discounted by up to 70%, maintaining a minimum rate of 0.0065%.
This strategic move comes as global markets gear up for the earnings season, a time often characterized by increased volatility and numerous adjustments in trading positions. During such periods, the costs associated with trading can play a crucial role in determining overall execution efficiency.
Gracy Chen, the CEO of Bitget, emphasized the importance of accessibility during the earnings season, stating, “Earnings season is when trading costs and access really start to matter. Traders need the flexibility to move quickly without worrying about fees eating into every decision.” She added that Bitget aims to remove barriers and furnish traders with the necessary tools to engage in stock and metal trading globally, around the clock.
Currently, Bitget provides a diverse selection of 33 stock perpetual trading pairs, catering to a wide range of market capitalizations from micro-caps to major tech giants. The platform also offers four precious metal perpetuals. Notably, Bitget supports leverage as high as 100x for selected stock perpetuals, including prominent pairs like NVDAUSDT, TSLAUSDT, and GOOGLUSDT, giving traders access to significant leverage options in the market.
In addition to the fee reductions, the new structure lowers the barriers for participation, allowing traders to gain exposure to equities without needing to purchase full shares. This flexibility in position sizing and capital allocation particularly benefits those actively navigating short-term earnings or macroeconomic-driven price fluctuations.
The updates reinforce Bitget’s Universal Exchange model, which combines cryptocurrency trading with stock and traditional market exposure under a unified interface. By integrating affordable fees, extensive asset options, and efficient capital structures, Bitget is well-positioned as a premier trading venue for those engaged across different asset classes and market cycles.
