Trading Fees

📊 Understanding Maker vs Taker Orders

💰 Fee Schedule

Our fee structure rewards higher trading volumes with significantly reduced rates across six tiers:

TIER	30-DAY TRADING VOLUME	MAKER FEE	TAKER FEE
Tier 0	Under $100K	0.10%	0.20%
Tier 1	$100K – $5M	0.05%	0.10%
Tier 2	≥ $5M	0.04%	0.08%
Tier 3	≥ $20M	0.03%	0.06%
Tier 4	≥ $50M	0.01%	0.03%
Tier 5 (VIP)	≥ $100M	0.00%	0.02%

🔄 30-Day Rolling Trading Volume

Your fee tier is determined by your total trading volume over the 30 calendar days, calculated on a rolling basis. This system ensures your fees always reflect your recent trading activity.

How Rolling Volume Works

• Daily Recalculation: Every day at midnight UTC, the exchange recalculates your trading volume by summing your total activity over the past 30 days.

• Rolling Window: The "30 days" is not a fixed calendar month but a continuously shifting window that moves forward each day.

• Real-time Updates: Your fee tier updates daily based on this calculation, ensuring your trading fees always reflect your current activity level.

📈 Practical Example: Alice's Trading Journey

Alice starts trading on Yamata:

• Days 1-10: Alice trades $40K total volume;

• Days 11-20: Alice trades additional $30K (cumulative: $70K );

• Days 21-30: Alice trades additional $35K (cumulative: $105K ).

Result: On Day 30, Alice crosses the $100K threshold and moves from Tier 0 to Tier 1 , reducing her maker fees from 0.10% to 0.05% and taker fees from 0.20% to 0.10%.

Continuing: On Day 45, the system calculates Alice's volume from Day 15 to Day 44. If her volume drops below $100K in that window, she returns to Tier 0 until her volume increases again.
