Bybit Fee Calculator
Break-even and round-trip cost on Bybit's published BTCUSDT fee schedule.
A fee schedule only becomes real when it is attached to a position. This page applies Bybit's published maker and taker rates for BTCUSDT to a trade you specify, and shows the exit price that returns your capital — plus what the round trip costs as a share of the margin you actually posted.
How it works
Break-even is not entry plus twice the fee. The closing fee is charged on the exit value, which is the very number being solved for, so the exit appears on both sides of the equation. Setting profit equal to total fees and collecting terms gives entry × (1 + entry fee) ÷ (1 − exit fee) for a long.
The difference from the approximation is small at retail fee levels and grows with the fee. What matters more is the second figure: leverage does not move the break-even price at all, but it divides your margin, so the identical round trip costs twenty times more of your posted capital at 100× than at 5×.

Round-trip cost across exchanges
Taker in and taker out on a 10,000 position — the honest comparison, since stops and liquidations never fill as maker.
| Exchange | Maker | Taker | Cost |

| Binance | 0.020 % | 0.050 % | 10.01 |
| Bybit | 0.020 % | 0.055 % | 11.01 |

Margin ladders differ enough to move the liquidation price on identical inputs.

Bybit's standard taker rate on USDT perpetuals sits slightly above most of its peers, and that gap is the whole story on this page: it looks like a rounding difference on one trade and stops looking like one once it is multiplied by turnover.
A few thousandths of a percent, multiplied
The difference between Bybit's standard taker rate and a rival's is a few thousandths of a percent. On a single round trip that is invisible. On a strategy turning the account over once a day it is a measurable share of the annual return, paid whether the strategy wins or loses.
The comparison table below prices an identical position on each venue with taker fees on both legs — the like-for-like number, rather than a maker rate a forced exit will never achieve.
Where the VIP ladder actually helps
Bybit's VIP tiers cut both sides of the schedule, and the maker rate falls furthest in relative terms. For a strategy that can wait for a limit fill, climbing the ladder changes the economics more than it does for one that crosses the spread.
If you cannot reach a tier, the remaining lever is order type. Converting half your entries from taker to maker is usually worth more than any discount programme available at retail volume.
FAQ
What is Bybit's taker fee for perpetuals?
The standard rate is in the table above with the best publicly listed VIP tier. It sits a little above the going rate at comparable venues, which is worth weighing if you trade by market order at volume.
Does Bybit charge a fee on funding?
No. Funding is transferred between traders and no fee is levied on it. Trading fees and funding are separate costs, and a carry position needs both priced before it makes sense.
Is the maker rebate worth chasing?
Only if the strategy can genuinely wait for a fill. A limit order that does not execute carries an opportunity cost no fee schedule captures, and it is frequently larger than the saving.
