How we check fees
A published fee is a reference for a defined scenario. Your final cost depends on the product, account tier, region and current platform terms.

Policy established:
Start with primary sources
Use the platform’s official fee schedule, help centre or product documentation. Retain the source link and the evidence date beside the relevant data. A page update date is not a fresh check of every fee.
Match the scenario
Distinguish spot from derivatives, maker from taker, and base tier from VIP or promotional pricing. Check region, account eligibility, pair, network and settlement currency before comparing.
Separate the costs
Trading fees, funding, spread, slippage, network costs and withdrawal charges are different fields. A fee discount is not a guaranteed rebate or a complete estimate of execution cost.
Show uncertainty
Missing, conflicting, inaccessible or stale evidence remains unverified. We do not fill gaps with estimated rates. Recheck the official schedule and your signed-in account before acting.
Keep commercial terms visible
Partner links may earn us commission. Eligibility and offer conditions must be verified separately; commercial relationships do not establish a fee fact.
Reading a checked date
A checked date records when the source was reviewed for the stated fee scope. It does not establish when the fee took effect or confirm that it is still available to your account. Keep the product-level date beside its source; a venue-level summary date can reflect a different product’s latest check. Republishing a page or generating a report does not refresh that evidence.
The boundary of a base-fee comparison
Compare public base-account maker and taker rates within the recorded product scope. VIP discounts, token-payment discounts and rebates are excluded. Spreads, slippage and funding sit outside that trading-fee comparison, as do deposit, network and withdrawal charges. Missing withdrawal records cannot support a network-cost comparison. Account and regional eligibility still require confirmation.
When do we read the source again?
Our editorial policy calls for scheduled reviews and another check when official terms change. It publishes no fixed review interval. Use the date on each record to judge its age; this section makes no promise of daily or weekly verification.
When a source changes
Recheck the official page and the affected product, tier and conditions. Update the supported record and its review date, then revise material statements that depend on it. Retain superseded figures with their dates and limitations. If the page is inaccessible or evidence conflicts, keep the claim unverified until resolved. If a note mentions a later reading than the record’s checked date, we reconcile the two before calling the data fresher. Material errors belong in the corrections log; routine source refreshes should be identified separately.
Report an error
Email the page URL, the disputed statement, the official source and its date. Confirmed material changes should record the old statement, corrected statement, reason and correction date here; routine refreshes are distinct from corrections.
