Binance Fee Discount (Komisyon İndirimi): BNB Takes Up to 25% Off, a Referral Rebate Returns 25% of Fees, and Binance TR Is Separate

6 min

The short answer

On Binance.com you can cut a standard 0.1% spot fee in two ways. Paying with BNB takes up to 25% off, and signing up with a referral code from our partner list returns 25% of your trading fees, paid hourly. On a $10,000 spot trade, either one alone leaves you paying $7.50 instead of $10. Used together they could bring it to about $5.63, though Binance does not say how the two combine, so treat that as our calculation.

The main catch is timing. The rebate depends on a referral link made at sign-up or within a short window after it. If you live in Türkiye you are probably on Binance TR, a separate sign-up whose fee table stays empty until you log in. We could not confirm a rebate there, so read that section before you act on the numbers above.

What each discount does to a $10,000 trade

The table uses Binance's standard rates and the 25% share in our partners feed, read on November 9, 2026. The spot rate is 0.1% for regular users, per Binance's fee structure page. The perpetual taker rate is the 0.05% listed in our feed. VIP users pay different rates.

Article table: scroll horizontally, or focus the table area and use the arrow keys.

RouteSpot, $10,000 takerUSDⓈ-M futures, $10,000 taker
No discount$10.00$5.00
BNB only$7.50$4.50
Rebate only$10.00 − $2.50 = $7.50$5.00 − $1.25 = $3.75
BNB and rebate, if the rebate applies to the discounted fee$7.50 − $1.875 = $5.625$4.50 − $1.125 = $3.375

Arithmetic for the last spot row: $10,000 × 0.075% = $7.50, then $7.50 × 25% = $1.875 back. Binance's own worked example confirms the 0.075% rate with BNB on a 0.1% fee.

These are per-side numbers. Opening and later closing a position means paying twice, so a round trip on the futures row at the full taker rate costs $10 before any discount.

How to switch on the BNB discount

Binance's BNB fee guide lists up to 25% off spot and margin fees and up to 10% off futures fees. VIP users can get it on top of their VIP rate. Two conditions apply: BNB must sit in your Spot account, and the [Using BNB Deduction] setting must be on.

On the website, open a spot trading page, click [Fee Level] and turn on the BNB toggle. Or open the Fees & Transactions Overview page and use the [BNB Discount] button. In the app, go to [Account Center], tap the Settings icon, then [BNB Discount], and turn on [Use BNB to pay fees].

With the setting off, Binance charges the full fee. Keep enough BNB in the account too, because the guide tells users to maintain a sufficient balance to cover fees. Binance has kept the 25% rate "until further notice" and reserves the right to change it, so the setting screen is the place to check the current figure.

Holding BNB for this has a cost of its own: you take on BNB's price movement. A $100 monthly fee bill saves at most $25 with the discount. If you would need to buy a large BNB balance to cover those fees, a fall in BNB could wipe out that saving, so hold only what your fees need.

How the 25% rebate works and when you can still get it

Our partner data lists Binance at a 25% share of trading fees, settled automatically every hour, with terms confirmed on October 10, 2026. The sign-up code is 11350287, and our Binance page carries the current sign-up route. The rebate is a share of the fees you pay. It is not a percentage of the trade amount.

Order matters, because Binance's referral FAQ makes the link hard to fix later:

  • A referral relationship cannot be changed or removed once it exists.
  • If you forgot the code at sign-up, you can still add one only if the account is under 30 days old, has had no deposit or trade, has no existing referral, is a parent account, and is not flagged as a wash trader. Your KYC details also must not have been used on another account in the past 180 days.
  • Closing an account to open a new one with a different code can end the rebate. Binance says it detects duplicate identities, and that such a user becomes ineligible for rebates.
  • A new user gets one referral mode only, per Binance's program overview. An account opened through Referral Lite cannot join Referral Pro later.

The same FAQ says that since April 29, 2026 on spot and July 15, 2026 on futures, referral payouts are based on net fees, meaning fee income after any market-maker rebates. A regular taker paying the standard rate gets no maker rebate, so this mainly touches high-volume market makers. It is one reason we did not state the combined BNB-plus-rebate figure as a Binance promise.

If you are in Türkiye: Binance TR is a different fee page

The Turkish search for "binance komisyon indirimi" usually comes from someone using Binance TR, which is run by Binance Turkey Kripto Varlık Alım Satım Platformu A.Ş. and is a separate sign-up. Everything above describes Binance.com help pages. We checked Binance TR's fee page on November 9 and this is what it shows without a login:

  • TL deposits and withdrawals are free.
  • Crypto withdrawals between Binance.com and Binance TR are free.
  • Trading fees depend on your VIP level. Your 30-day crypto-pair volume updates daily at 03:00 and the maker and taker tiers at 04:00, on the page's own unstated clock.
  • There are separate tabs for TRY pairs and crypto pairs. The rate table showed "no records found" until login.

The table also carries a column header reading "BNB 100.00% İndirim". With no rows under it, we cannot tell what rate it refers to, and we would not read it as free trading. Log in and compare the figure in your own row. We found no Binance TR page confirming that a referral rebate applies, so we give no percentage for it. Our guides on Binance TR's safety checks and OKX TR's fee tiers cover the local details.

Check the withdrawal route before you chase a lower fee

A fee saving means little if the coin you bought cannot leave. On November 8 we counted 218 of 531 coins on Binance with no open withdrawal route, after the attack on the exchange. Open the withdrawal screen for your coin and confirm the network is active before sizing a position around fee savings.

How Binance compares after rebate

Binance's 25% is not the largest share in our partner data. Using the same $10,000 taker trade and each venue's rates in the feed:

Article table: scroll horizontally, or focus the table area and use the arrow keys.

VenueShareSpot fee, netPerp fee, net
Bitget60%, daily$10 − $6 = $4$6 − $3.60 = $2.40
OKX20%, hourly$10 − $2 = $8$5 − $1 = $4
Binance25%, hourly$10 − $2.50 = $7.50$5 − $1.25 = $3.75

Bitget's perpetual rate is higher but its share is larger, so it comes out cheapest on these figures. Details are on our Bitget page. Already active on Binance with an unlinked account? Your realistic discount is BNB alone. Our Binance page and futures fee breakdown show how that plays out per trade.

Quick answers

Does BNB give 25% off futures too?

No. Binance lists up to 10% off futures fees and up to 25% off spot and margin. Its futures fee guide ties the 10% to USDⓈ-M futures.

Can I add a referral code to an old account?

Only under the conditions above, which include being under 30 days old with no deposit or trade. An older active account cannot add one.

Where do I see what I actually paid?

Binance points users to Trade History, and says the [Est. Fee] on the trade page is only an estimate. Its spot fee guide says the fee is normally charged in the asset you receive.

What we could not confirm

We did not place a trade, so the combined BNB-and-rebate line is our calculation. Binance's own fee schedule pages do not open for automated readers, so VIP tiers are left out. Binance TR's actual rates, what its BNB column means, and whether any rebate exists there all need a logged-in account to check.
