Methodology
Schedules are pulled from each exchange's published fee page, snapshot 2026-05. We model the default retail tier — VIP volume discounts and native-token rebates (BNB, KCS, BGB, CRO, GT) are noted in the "Rebates" column but not applied to the headline math. The instant-buy column reflects the in-app card-rail fee at retail; bank-transfer on-ramp fees vary by country and are covered in the on-ramp cost tool.
