Maker Fee

A maker fee is the trading fee applied when an execution qualifies as adding liquidity to the market under the platform's rules.

Why it matters to you

Maker fees may be lower than taker fees on some platforms, and certain venues or account tiers may use other incentive structures. For frequent traders, the difference between maker and taker costs can become significant over many trades.
