Methodology
Figures are the base tier a new account starts on (regular user, VIP 0 or the venue’s equivalent) for spot pairs and USDT-margined perpetuals, copied from the exchange’s own fee page or fee endpoint. VIP tiers, token discounts, promotions and referral rebates are not included.
Each row carries the URL it was read from and the review date. A field the official page does not state, or that we could not verify, stays empty and is marked “not checked”; we never fill it from another site.
The index is published monthly. A change on an exchange’s fee page is picked up at the next review and the edition date moves with it.
