Crypto exchange Bitget on Wednesday announced a Zero-Fee Mode for its CFD platform, creating a dual-account structure alongside the existing ECN Mode.
The new tier waives trading commissions while keeping standard spreads. ECN Mode, which offers tighter spreads with volume-based commissions, remains available for short-term and high-frequency traders. Bitget described Zero-Fee Mode as suited to medium- and long-term positions with lower trading frequency.
The feature went live on June 8, according to Bitget’s support center. New users are placed into Zero-Fee Mode by default. Existing users stay on ECN unless they switch manually, which requires closing open positions and canceling unfilled orders first.
“Multi-asset access is becoming the new standard for trading platforms, and CFD is central to how Bitget is delivering that future,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget.
Bitget said daily CFD volume hit $8 billion in May and is approaching $10 billion. That follows an earlier reported milestone of $4 billion in daily volume on January 21. The company has pointed to gold and US indices such as the NAS100 as its most traded CFD products.
