How much does Coinbase charge for trading fees?

Coinbase charges different fees for trading on its platform depending on the user's pricing tier, which is determined by their 30-day trading volume. Standard Coinbase transactions involve a spread of about 0.50% for cryptocurrency purchases and sales, although this can vary due to market fluctuations. In addition to the spread, Coinbase also charges a Coinbase Fee, which is the greater of either a flat fee or a variable percentage that depends on the region, product feature, and payment type. The flat fees range from $0.99 to $2.99 based on the transaction value, while the variable percentage fees are typically around 1.49% for standard buys and sells from a bank account or Coinbase wallet. Credit or debit card purchases have higher fees, generally around 3.99%. Advanced traders using Coinbase Pro benefit from a tiered maker-taker fee structure that ranges from 0.50% down to 0.00% for makers and up to 0.50% for takers, decreasing as trading volumes increase. These fees are subject to change and updates by Coinbase and can vary by location and other factors, so it's always best to check the latest fee schedule on the Coinbase website.
