Bitunix Fees Explained: No KYC Trading and How to Pay Less
What Bitunix charges on spot and futures, what an active year costs, and why the cashback here is one of the highest we run.
- Bitunix charges 0.08% maker and 0.10% taker on spot, and 0.02% maker and 0.06% taker on USDT perpetuals at the standard tier.
- Bitunix lets you trade without mandatory KYC, which is its main draw, and it is a newer exchange still building search awareness.
- A trader moving 5M USDT a month pays roughly 36,000 USDT a year in taker fees on Bitunix.
- Trade Reclaim returns 35% of every Bitunix trading fee, one of the highest cashback rates across the exchanges we cover, from the first trade.
- Withdrawal fees on Bitunix are charged per network and stay small. Trading fees are the cost that compounds, and they are the ones cashback addresses.
A 25,000 USDT position costs 15 USDT in taker fees on Bitunix, small enough to wave off. At 2 or 3 trades a day it becomes a 5 figure bill by the end of the year, and most traders never tally it. Run your own number first, then read what to do about it.
What Bitunix actually charges
Bitunix charges 0.08% maker and 0.10% taker on spot, and 0.02% maker and 0.06% taker on USDT perpetuals at the standard tier.
Spot makers get a small break at 0.08% against the 0.10% taker, while the contract side sits at 0.02% maker and 0.06% taker, with the taker rate carrying most of the cost for anyone who crosses the book. The rates come from the official Bitunix fee schedule, and we keep every tier, including VIP rates, on our Bitunix fees page.
On perpetuals you also pay funding every 8 hours. Funding passes between longs and shorts and Bitunix only relays it, so it counts in your cost math but no program discounts it.
What a year of Bitunix trading costs
At 5M USDT of monthly volume, taker fees on Bitunix run about 36,000 USDT a year, and 35% of that comes back.
Here is the shape of it. A 20,000 to 30,000 USDT position is charged on entry and again on exit, so a round trip turns over about 60,000 USDT. Two to three a day is close to 5M USDT a month, 60M across the year, and at the 0.06% taker rate the fees total 36,000 USDT. With 35% cashback that is 12,600 USDT returned, more than a third of the bill erased before you touch order type.
Your own total turns on size and pace. The cashback calculator takes both and shows your yearly cost next to what 35% brings back.
The 3 levers that cut your Bitunix bill
Three levers move what you pay on Bitunix: 35% cashback on every trade, maker orders, and the VIP ladder.
Lever 1 is cashback, and on Bitunix it is bigger than usual. Trade Reclaim returns 35% of every trading fee you pay, from the first trade, with no volume threshold, one of the highest rates we run. The current rate and setup steps are on the Bitunix cashback page.
Lever 2 is order type: filling as maker drops the contract rate from 0.06% to 0.02%, cutting it by two thirds for strategies that can rest orders. Lever 3 is the VIP ladder, where sustained volume or held balances step both rates down. The three stack cleanly, so a VIP maker with cashback pays a fraction of the standard taker rate.
| Fee type | Standard | With 35% back |
|---|---|---|
| Spot maker | 0.08% | 0.052% |
| Spot taker | 0.10% | 0.065% |
| Futures maker | 0.02% | 0.013% |
| Futures taker | 0.06% | 0.039% |
Standard tier, before any VIP discount. The full VIP ladder is on the Bitunix page.
How the 35% cashback works
Trade Reclaim returns 35% of what Bitunix charges you, in USDT, withdrawable anytime from 20 USDT.
As a month-sized example: 3,000 USDT in fees becomes 1,050 USDT back. The money is Bitunix's affiliate commission. Bitunix pays a share of your fees to the partner that referred you, and Trade Reclaim passes most of that share to you. Your trading is untouched. Setup is one field: register through the affiliate link, enter your UID in Trade Reclaim, and the affiliate dashboard tracks your trades from then on. No API keys, no password, no access to your Bitunix account at any time. The full mechanics are on the how it works page.
Cashback and VIP do not compete. Reach a tier and the 35% applies to the lower fee you now pay.
Is it safe to trade on a newer exchange like Bitunix?
Bitunix trades without mandatory KYC and is younger than the top venues, so treat it as you would any growing exchange: useful for active trading, not a vault for your whole stack.
No mandatory KYC is the reason many traders pick Bitunix, and it reaches markets larger KYC exchanges cannot. It is a younger platform, so it carries the usual caveat for a newer exchange: keep the funds you actively trade there, not your long-term holdings. None of that changes the fee math. For traders who already use it, 35% of every fee coming back is the clearest win on the table.
Are Bitunix fees competitive in 2026?
Yes. Bitunix sits mid-pack on raw rates, but its 35% return is among the highest anywhere and pushes the effective cost well below most schedules.
With cashback, the standard rates land at 0.039% taker and 0.013% maker on futures. The raw rates are ordinary; the 35% return is what sets Bitunix apart, since most exchanges cap their give back lower. How it compares across the 10 platforms we track is in the exchange fee comparison, and the mechanics behind fee cashback are in the cashback guide.

Frequently asked questions
What are Bitunix trading fees for regular users?
Spot trades cost 0.08% maker and 0.10% taker. USDT perpetuals cost 0.02% maker and 0.06% taker. These are the standard rates before any VIP tier or cashback.
Does Bitunix require KYC?
No, Bitunix lets you trade without mandatory KYC, which is its main draw. That makes it reachable where larger KYC exchanges are not, and the 35% cashback setup works the same way regardless.
What are Bitunix withdrawal fees?
Withdrawals are charged per coin and per network, priced near the network cost, so they run a few USDT each. They are minor next to trading fees: a year of taker fees at 5M monthly volume costs about 36,000 USDT.
What is the maximum leverage on Bitunix?
Bitunix offers high leverage on its perpetual contracts, up to 125x on major pairs. Higher leverage multiplies the notional your fees are charged on, so it raises your fee bill as fast as it raises your risk.
How do I lower Bitunix fees?
Two ways work from day one: fill as maker, which cuts the contract rate from 0.06% to 0.02%, and connect your UID to Trade Reclaim, which returns 35% of every fee you pay regardless of volume.
Is Bitunix cashback higher than other exchanges?
At 35%, Bitunix is one of the highest cashback rates Trade Reclaim runs, above the 30% on most exchanges. Only BitMart, at 50%, is higher among the platforms we cover.
Trade Reclaim Research tracks fee schedules, VIP tiers and token discounts across all 10 partner exchanges.

The goal is simple: show traders their real net cost, not the headline rate.
Trade Reclaim earns from exchange referrals and shares most of it back to you as cashback. Education, not financial advice.
