Gemini Fee Schedule
Last updated: February 14, 2025
Beginning on February 18, 2025, we will be updating our fee structure.
Order Type Fee Schedules
Orders placed through the Gemini mode interface on our website or mobile application are subject to the following fees:
Instant Orders: All Instant Orders incur both a convenience fee (“Convenience Fee”) and a transaction fee (“Transaction Fee”). Before you place your Instant Order, you will be quoted a firm price that includes the Convenience Fee (the “Quoted Price”). In addition, the Transaction Fee is displayed separately and varies based on the amount of your Instant Order.

Limit Orders: All Limit Orders incur a transaction fee (“Transaction Fee”). The Transaction Fee will apply whether the Limit Order remain on the market or is executed immediately.

Fee Calculation
| Order Type | Order Amount | Transaction Fee | Convenience Fee |
|---|---|---|---|
Instant Order | Any Amount | 1.49% | 1.00% |
Limit Order | Any Amount | 1.49% | 0.00% |
Fees are calculated as a fraction of the trade’s notional value (i.e., price × amount). Depending on the Order type, fees may be either deducted from the gross proceeds of a trade or charged to the account at trade execution. Any fees will be applied at the time an Order is placed. For partially filled Orders, only the executed portion is subject to trading fees.
The Convenience Fee is calculated at a rate of 1.00% (or 100 basis points) of the prevailing Gemini market price for a given trading pair at the time we provide you the Quoted Price. Your actual Convenience Fee may be lower or greater than 1.00% (up to 2.00%) due to price movement in the market between the time we provide you the Quoted Price and the time your order is filled; however, this will not affect the price you pay.
Fee Denominations
Fees are charged in quote currency, or the second currency in the pair. For example,the BTC/USD transaction fee will be charged in USD, while the ETH/BTC transaction fee will be charged in BTC.
