Exchange Comparison: Bitget vs Bybit vs BingX (2026)
Fees, maximum leverage and markets for three exchanges, checked directly against each exchange's own public fee schedule and contract-info pages rather than third-party roundups. Where a fact wasn't cleanly verifiable from a public page, this comparison uses "—" instead of a guess.
Fees and leverage at a glance
| Exchange | Spot maker / taker | Futures maker / taker | Max leverage | Markets |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bitget | 0.10% / 0.10% | 0.02% / 0.06% | Up to 150× (BTC/USDT) | Spot, futures, margin, stocks & CFDs, copy trading |
| Bybit | 0.10% / 0.10% | 0.02% / 0.055% | Up to 100× (BTCUSDT) | Spot, derivatives, options, TradFi, copy trading |
| BingX | 0.10% / 0.10% | 0.02% / 0.05% | Up to 150× (BTC-USDT) | Spot, USDⓢ-M/Coin-M/USDC-M futures, TradFi, copy trading |
All figures above are each exchange's base (non-VIP / VIP0) rate, taken from its own public fee schedule — every exchange offers lower rates at higher VIP tiers or with its native token held, which none of these three account for at the base rate shown. Leverage caps are for BTC's flagship USDT-margined perpetual contract specifically; caps are lower on smaller, less liquid pairs on every exchange, and margin tiers reduce the maximum available leverage as your position size grows.
How to choose
- If fees matter most to you: compare the maker/taker rate for the product you'll actually trade most — spot fees are identical across all three at the base rate, but futures fees differ, and BingX's base futures taker rate is the lowest of the three.
- If leverage matters most to you: Bitget and BingX both publish a 150× cap on BTC/USDT, ahead of Bybit's 100× — but higher leverage means a closer liquidation price for the same position size, not a "better" trade. Check the margin-tier table on the exchange's own site before sizing a large position at maximum leverage.
- If you want more than crypto in one account: both Bitget and BingX offer stocks, commodities and forex through CFD products (Bitget's "Universal Exchange", BingX's TradFi section) alongside crypto trading. Bybit's TradFi offering covers similar ground through its own CFD products.
- If copy trading matters to you: all three offer it. BingX puts particular weight on it with a public leaderboard and an elite-trader recruitment program.

This comparison is informational, not financial advice. Fee schedules and leverage caps change without notice — always confirm current rates on the exchange's own site before trading. Trading crypto derivatives carries substantial risk of loss.
