StableJack charges a fee on every trade placed through the platform. Trading fees vary based on the market, order type, and the user’s 14-day trading volume.
The published fee rates include both StableJack fees and third-party provider fees. Users with a referral code receive a 5% discount on trading fees.
What are maker and taker fees?
A maker fee applies when an order adds liquidity to the order book. This usually happens when a limit order is placed and does not execute immediately.
A taker fee applies when an order removes liquidity from the order book. Market orders and limit orders that execute immediately are generally treated as taker orders.
Taker fees are usually higher than maker fees.
How do StableJack fee tiers work?
StableJack uses a tiered fee system based on your trading volume over the previous 14 days.
As your 14-day volume increases, you may move into a higher tier and receive lower trading fees. Separate rates apply to perpetual and spot trading.
Tier | 14-Day Volume | Perps Maker | Perps Taker | Spot Maker | Spot Taker |
Tier 0 | Below $5 million | 0.0644% | 0.0932% | 0.5384% | 0.5672% |
Tier 1 | Above $5 million | 0.0477% | 0.0736% | 0.4788% | 0.5076% |
Tier 2 | Above $25 million | 0.0388% | 0.0638% | 0.4192% | 0.4480% |
Tier 3 | Above $100 million | 0.0300% | 0.0569% | 0.3596% | 0.3884% |
Tier 4 | Above $500 million | 0.0250% | 0.0500% | 0.3000% | 0.3336% |
Tier 5 | Above $2 billion | 0.0200% | 0.0430% | 0.2500% | 0.2788% |
Tier 6 | Above $7 billion | 0.0200% | 0.0430% | 0.2000% | 0.2240% |
How is the trading fee calculated?
The trading fee is calculated as a percentage of the trade value.
For example, if you place a $1,000 perpetual taker order at the Tier 0 rate of 0.0932%, the trading fee would be approximately $0.93.
Opening and closing a position are separate trades, so fees may apply to both actions.
Are funding payments included?
No. Funding payments are separate from trading fees.
When trading perpetual contracts, users may pay or receive funding depending on the funding rate and the direction of the position. Funding can affect the total cost of holding a position, especially over longer periods.
Does leverage reduce the fee?
No. Trading fees are generally calculated using the total trade value, not only the margin deposited.
Using leverage increases the size of the position relative to the user’s margin, which can also increase the trading fee and potential loss.
Are StableJack subscription fees separate?
Yes. Subscription payments and trading fees are separate.
Subscription plans provide access to credits, Navigator, Skills, Copilots, AI Insights, and other StableJack features. Trading fees apply when users execute trades through the platform.
Summary
StableJack trading fees depend on the market, whether the order is a maker or taker order, and the user’s 14-day trading volume.
Higher-volume users may receive lower rates, and referral-code users receive a 5% fee discount. Users should also consider funding payments, leverage, and fees for both opening and closing a position.
