Coinbase cryptocurrency trading market GDAX has now implemented previously announced plans for a new fee schedule, which went into effect today April 5th at 00:00 UTC (April 4th at 5:00 PST).
There will continue to be 0% fees for all maker orders but now a tiered fee structure between 0.10% and 0.30% for all taker orders.
Further, there will no longer be separate taker fees for each Order Book. Customers will be charged the same taker fee across all Order Books based on their total trailing 30-day USD volume.
30-day USD Volume | Maker Fee | Taker Fee |
$0 – $10M | 0% | 0.30% |
$10M – $100M | 0% | 0.20% |
$100M+ | 0% | 0.10% |
Previous taker fees for BTC markets were 0.25% and BCH ETH & LTC markets had a taker fee of 0.3% across the board.
Taker Fee calculation
The customer taker fee is based upon total USD trading volume across all Order Books over the trailing 30-day period. For example, a purchase of 1 BTC for $10,000 on the BTC-USD book will count as $10,000 towards your 30-day USD volume.
Volumes calculations on non-USD books
Transactions made on non-USD books are converted to USD based on the most recent fill price on the corresponding USD book. For example, a purchase of 1 ETH for 0.1 BTC on the ETH-BTC book will count as the most recent fill price of 0.1 BTC on the BTC-USD Order Book.
