Frequently asked questions

Does MEXC charge the same fee for spot and futures?

loweef's verified data here covers MEXC's futures schedule (0.01% maker / 0.04% taker) — check MEXC's own fee page directly for its current spot-market rates.

Is there a minimum trading volume to get the MEXC payback?

No. Unlike VIP tiers, the payback applies from the first trade at any size — it's a percentage of the fee you paid, not a volume threshold.

Does the payback lower MEXC's posted fee itself?

No — MEXC's published rate stays the same. The payback returns a share of what you already paid, credited daily in USDT, separate from MEXC's own fee schedule.
