Crypto exchange Bitget upgraded its institutional pricing framework on June 30, expanding market groupings, adding tiered taker pricing for PRO users, and raising maker rebates on selected long-tail pairs. The exchange detailed the changes on Tuesday, July 7, 2026.
Spot pairs now sit in two groups: Group A covers majors such as BTCUSDT, XAUTUSDT, and SOLUSDT, while Group B holds all other spot pairs including new listings. Futures split into three groups, with Group C dedicated to TradFi futures covering stocks, precious metals, commodities, and indices at a 0.65 basis point taker fee.
Rebate changes
Bitget lifted selected spot maker rebates from 1.2 basis points to 1.5 basis points. On long-tail contracts, selected futures maker rebates increased from 0.8 basis points to 1.0 basis point. Bitget also said it added revised market-making assessment methods and weighted liquidity metrics that give more weight to emerging markets.
“They’re focused on where they can deploy capital most efficiently, not whether an opportunity sits in crypto or traditional finance,” said Gracy Chen, CEO at Bitget. “Our job is to build the infrastructure that makes moving between those markets feel seamless.”
The update builds on Bitget’s earlier institutional-liquidity and PRO program rollout from 2025, which first introduced tiered maker rebates and volume-based onboarding for professional users.
