How each exchange is built

Bitget is a centralized exchange (CEX): you open an account with the company, and the account holds your funds. BingX is built the same way. Both match orders on a central limit order book. You trade from an account at either one, not from a self-custody wallet.

Fees and what they mean

Bitget's base tier is 2 bp maker and 6 bp taker, per Bitget's fee page. BingX's is 2 bp maker and 5 bp taker, per BingX's fee page.

The maker rate is the same on both. A limit order that rests on the book pays 2 bp on either exchange. A market order pays the taker fee to open and again to close: 12 bp per round trip on Bitget, 10 bp on BingX.

Fees are only part of a trade's cost. Slippage, the price you move by eating through the order book, grows with size. The cost table above adds both at each size from $1k to $5M. Every exchange's trading cost is compared on one page.

Markets and leverage

As of 1 October 2026 Bitget lists 862 active perps, 345 of them stocks, commodities, FX or other real-world assets. BingX lists 1240, 234 of them real-world assets. BingX has more markets overall, and Bitget has more real-world asset markets.

Bitget offers up to 150x on its highest-leverage market and BingX up to 500x. Most markets on both allow less. Both pay funding every 1 hour, 4 hours or 8 hours depending on the market. Check a market's interval before you hold it: an hourly market settles 24 times a day, an 8-hour market three times. The list further down this page shows the markets both exchanges have and each one's funding rate.

Reading the numbers on this page

Both exchanges publish open interest as one side of open positions. The open interest row and chart above are therefore a like-for-like comparison of size, unlike pairs where one exchange counts longs plus shorts.

Neither exchange has a TVL row or chart, since centralized exchanges publish none. Use the volume and open interest charts above, and the Head to head table, for size. For the funding of one asset across both, the funding matrix lists every asset on every exchange.
