BingX vs Bitget Fee Rebate 2026: Which Is Cheaper for Copy Trading?

For futures taker orders after rebates, BingX is cheaper than Bitget. Sign up with code FEEOTTER and BingX pays a 45% rebate, all refunded automatically by BingX with no UID binding; Bitget pays 50% on futures (20% exchange auto-rebate + 30% extra rebate) and 45% on spot (20% + 25%). The futures taker nets to 0.0275% on BingX and 0.03% on Bitget. Maker orders and spot paid in BGB come out lower on Bitget (fees and rebate rates checked 2026-10-17).

Both exchanges are popular with copy traders, so this comparison counts the whole cost of copying: fees, the lead trader's profit share, how rebates are credited, and the rules for rebinding. On listed fees, BingX futures taker is 0.05% and Bitget's 0.06%; both charge 0.02% maker on futures and 0.1% on spot.

Quick verdict

• Futures taker and copy trading → BingX: net taker 0.0275% vs 0.03%. On 300,000 USDT of monthly copy volume, all taker, net cost is 82.5 vs 90 USDT.
• Futures maker → Bitget, slightly: net maker 0.010% vs 0.011% on BingX.
• Spot, happy to use BGB → Bitget: BGB takes spot to 0.08%, and 45% back leaves 0.044%; BingX spot nets 0.055%.
• Both pay more than double a typical KOL code: common codes give 20%–25%. With code FEEOTTER, BingX pays 45% (2.25×) and Bitget futures 50% (2.5×).
• Different payout routes: BingX refunds all 45% itself; on Bitget the exchange refunds 20% and Fee Otter settles the other 30%, which needs your UID bound.

Fees: BingX has the lower futures taker

Fees checked 2026-10-17. BingX: perpetual futures fee schedule, spot VIP fee announcement, BingX public API (BTC-USDT maker 0.0002, taker 0.0005); Bitget: Bitget fee page (2026-08-20), BGB discount page, Bitget public API (BTCUSDT futures maker 0.0002, taker 0.0006) · Methodology

• Bitget's futures taker is 20% higher than BingX's (0.06 ÷ 0.05). Copy trades usually fill at market alongside the lead trader, so the taker rate matters most.
• The BGB discount is written for spot and margin only: 20% off, not applicable to futures or the futures fills of copy trading.
• Fees fall with VIP level. This article uses regular-user rates; rebates are worked out on the fees you actually pay.

Rebate structure: BingX fully automatic, Bitget in two layers

In money: on 1,000 USDT of monthly futures fees, a typical 20% code returns 200 USDT; with code FEEOTTER, BingX returns 450 USDT and Bitget 500 USDT.

BingX's 45% is live from signup: enter FEEOTTER in the referral field and the page shows the rebate under it; after that BingX refunds every trade automatically, with no UID to bind on Fee Otter (see the BingX referral code guide). Bitget's 20% also needs the code at signup. The extra 30% / 25% needs your UID bound on Fee Otter; it is settled daily after the 16:00 (UTC+8) data refresh, listed line by line in the rebate dashboard, and paid on request as on-chain USDT on BEP20, minimum 1 USDT per request, with the 0.015 USDT network fee borne by you.

Net rates after the rebate

Formula: net rate = listed rate × (1 − rebate rate).

For example, BingX taker = 0.05% × (1 − 45%) = 0.0275%; Bitget taker = 0.06% × (1 − 50%) = 0.030%. On the 70/30 mix: BingX 0.041% × 55% ≈ 0.0226%, Bitget 0.048% × 50% = 0.024%. At 70% taker, every 1 million USDT of futures volume costs about 226 USDT net on BingX and 240 USDT on Bitget.

Bitget's rebate is 5 points higher, but its listed taker is 20% higher, and on taker orders the rebate cannot make that up. Both charge 0.02% maker, so on maker orders the higher rate wins and Bitget comes out ahead. Limit-order traders lean Bitget, market-order and copy traders lean BingX, and the gaps are small either way.

The cost of copy trading: fees, profit share and rebates together

When you copy, every open and close is a futures fill in your own account and is charged at your futures rate. The lead trader's profit share comes out of your profit separately and is not a trading fee. Copy trading rules on both exchanges:

Sources: BingX profit share rules, Bitget elite trader levels, Bitget private mode, Bitget high-water mark, Bitget affiliate FAQ. Details are in our BingX copy trading guide and Bitget copy trading guide.

Our own worked example: 300,000 USDT of monthly copy-trading futures volume, every open and close as taker, assuming Bitget counts copy-trading fees toward the rebate.

On the same 300,000 USDT, BingX costs 7.5 USDT a month less than Bitget, and returns 37.5 USDT a month more than a typical 20% code. If Bitget's copy-trading fees turn out not to count toward the extra rebate, Bitget keeps only its 20% automatic rebate and the net cost is 144 USDT.

Profit share depends more on the lead trader than on the exchange. On a 100 USDT profit, a BingX Diamond lead trader can take up to 32 USDT and a Bitget public lead trader up to 20 USDT; private links allow higher shares. Check the share before you follow a link someone sends you. The fee side is the part you can cut in advance: with code FEEOTTER, BingX refunds 45% and Bitget 50% on futures.

Late code entry and rebinding

BingX: add it before depositing, otherwise use identity transfer

A new account that has not deposited and has not invited anyone can add FEEOTTER under "My Referrer"; once a referrer is bound it cannot be changed or removed (BingX registration FAQ). If you have deposited or are bound to someone else, open a new account with FEEOTTER and transfer your old account's advanced KYC to it. After a transfer neither account can transfer again for 180 days, and the old account becomes unverified with a 20,000 USDT limit per 24 hours (BingX identity transfer page). Steps are in the BingX rebinding guide.

Bitget: a 30-day cooldown after closing

Bitget has no public way to add a code after signup. Rebinding usually means closing the account, waiting out the 30-day cooldown and signing up again with FEEOTTER; Bitget blocks the same phone number, email or ID for 30 days after closure (Bitget account closure page). Full steps are in the Bitget rebinding guide.

Risks

Both have had hot wallets drained. On 2026-09-24 Bitget announced unauthorised transfers from some hot wallets; its final verified figure is about 388 million US dollars across 12 wallet addresses. Bitget says user balances were not affected, its protection fund has been topped back up above 300 million US dollars, and withdrawals were fully restored in phases by 2026-10-02 (Bitget incident page, updated 2026-10-13; these are Bitget's own statements). On 2024-09-20 BingX's hot wallet was hacked; PeckShield estimated the loss at about 43 million US dollars, and BingX said it would cover it from its own funds (BingX statement, The Block). Keep money you are not copying with off the exchange; reserve data is in Bitget proof of reserves. If the lead trader is liquidated, so are you; past performance says nothing about the future, and a rebate only lowers fees.

Which one should you pick?

• Copy trading or market orders → BingX. Net taker 0.0275% vs 0.03%, and the 45% is refunded automatically.
• No UID binding, rebate live from signup → BingX.
• Futures limit orders → Bitget, net maker 0.010% vs 0.011%, a small gap.
• Spot, happy to hold BGB → Bitget. Net 0.044% vs 0.055%.
• Existing account that has already deposited → BingX lets you use identity transfer without closing; Bitget means closing and waiting 30 days.
• You want both → sign up to both with FEEOTTER, then bind your Bitget UID on Fee Otter.

Once you have decided, sign up with code FEEOTTER. New users can follow the BingX referral code guide or the Bitget referral code guide.
