How to Get 50% Bitget Trading Fee Cashback With TetherBack

C
Crypto Back 13 min read

 

Trading fees can look small when you calculate the cost of a single position.

For active futures traders, however, Bitget trading fees can become a significant recurring expense as monthly trading volume increases.

Bitget currently uses a standard futures fee structure of:

Order Type Bitget Futures Fee
Futures Maker Fee 0.02%
Futures Taker Fee 0.06%

Through TetherBack, eligible Bitget traders can receive 50% trading fee cashback.

This effectively reduces the cost of those fees to:

Order Type Bitget Fee 50% Cashback Effective Cost
Maker 0.02% 50% 0.01%
Taker 0.06% 50% 0.03%

The Bitget trading fee itself does not change.

Instead, cashback returns part of the eligible fees you generate, reducing the amount you ultimately spend on trading fees.

This guide explains Bitget futures fees, how Bitget cashback works, how much you could save, and how to connect Bitget to TetherBack.

What Is Bitget?

Bitget is a cryptocurrency exchange that provides several crypto trading products and services.

These include:

  • Spot trading
  • Futures trading
  • Perpetual contracts
  • Copy trading
  • Trading bots
  • API trading
  • Advanced order types
  • Mobile and web trading

For active traders, one of the most important costs to understand is the trading fee charged when an order is executed.

This is especially important for futures traders because repeatedly opening and closing positions can generate substantial cumulative trading volume.

The more volume you trade, the more important even a small difference in trading fees can become.

What Are Bitget Futures Trading Fees?

The standard Bitget futures fees covered in this guide are:

Maker fee: 0.02%

Taker fee: 0.06%

Maker and taker fees are different because they represent two different types of order execution.

Bitget Futures Maker Fee

A maker order adds liquidity to the order book.

This normally occurs when a limit order does not execute immediately and instead remains on the order book waiting to be matched.

The Bitget futures maker fee is:

0.02%

For example, if you generate $100,000 in maker trading volume:

$100,000 × 0.02% = $20

The normal trading fee would therefore be:

$20

With 50% cashback through TetherBack:

$20 × 50% = $10 cashback

Your effective trading cost becomes:

$10

This is equivalent to an effective fee of:

0.01%

Bitget Futures Taker Fee

A taker order removes existing liquidity from the order book.

This commonly happens when:

  • You place a market order
  • Your order executes immediately
  • A limit order immediately matches an existing order

The Bitget futures taker fee is:

0.06%

If you generate $100,000 in taker trading volume:

$100,000 × 0.06% = $60

With 50% cashback:

$60 × 50% = $30 cashback

Your final effective trading cost becomes:

$30

That represents an effective taker cost of:

0.03%

What Is Bitget Cashback?

Bitget cashback allows eligible traders to recover part of the trading fees generated while using Bitget.

Through TetherBack, the current Bitget cashback offer is:

50% trading fee cashback

The important point is that cashback does not change Bitget's original futures fee.

The normal rates remain:

  • 0.02% maker
  • 0.06% taker

Cashback reduces your cost after part of the applicable trading fees is returned.

Therefore, after receiving the full 50% cashback:

  • Maker effective cost becomes 0.01%
  • Taker effective cost becomes 0.03%

Bitget Trading Fees Before and After Cashback

Here is the difference more clearly:

Order Type Normal Bitget Fee Fee on $100,000 50% Cashback Final Cost
Maker 0.02% $20 $10 $10
Taker 0.06% $60 $30 $30

The amount saved increases as trading volume increases.

For traders generating millions of dollars in monthly volume, the difference can become substantial.

What Is TetherBack?

TetherBack is a crypto trading fee cashback platform designed to help traders reduce their effective trading costs.

Instead of changing exchanges or executing trades through another platform, users continue trading directly on supported partner exchanges.

TetherBack provides the cashback layer around eligible trading activity.

For Bitget traders, this means you can:

  • Continue trading directly on Bitget
  • Connect your Bitget account through your UID
  • Generate cashback from eligible trading fees
  • Track cashback through TetherBack
  • Keep your trading balance on Bitget

Your trading funds do not need to be transferred to TetherBack.

How Bitget Cashback Works With TetherBack

The process is straightforward.

Step 1: Create a TetherBack Account

Create a TetherBack account.

Your dashboard gives you access to supported exchange cashback offers.

Step 2: Find Bitget

Open the exchange section and locate Bitget.

The current offer displays:

  • 50% cashback
  • 0.01% effective maker cost
  • 0.03% effective taker cost

These effective rates are based on receiving 50% cashback against the standard 0.02% maker and 0.06% taker futures fees.

Step 3: Activate Bitget

Select the Bitget offer and follow the activation instructions provided through TetherBack.

Correct activation is important because the account needs to be connected to the relevant partner arrangement for cashback tracking.

Step 4: Create and Set Up Your Bitget Account

Follow the registration process provided through TetherBack.

Once your account is ready, configure appropriate account security settings.

These can include:

  • Two-factor authentication
  • Strong password
  • Anti-phishing protection
  • Withdrawal security
  • Device management

Step 5: Find Your Bitget UID

Log in to your Bitget account and find your UID.

Your UID is the unique identifier attached to your exchange account.

Copy it carefully.

Step 6: Connect Your Bitget UID to TetherBack

Return to your TetherBack dashboard and enter your Bitget UID.

Make sure the UID is correct before completing the connection.

Step 7: Trade Normally on Bitget

Once your eligible account is connected, continue trading normally.

You do not need to:

  • Trade through the TetherBack website
  • Transfer funds to TetherBack
  • Change your existing trading strategy

Your trades continue to take place directly on Bitget.

How Much Can You Save With 50% Bitget Cashback?

The amount of cashback depends largely on how much eligible trading volume you generate.

Bitget Maker Fee Examples

Using the standard 0.02% maker fee:

Trading Volume Standard Fee 50% Cashback Effective Cost
$10,000 $2 $1 $1
$50,000 $10 $5 $5
$100,000 $20 $10 $10
$500,000 $100 $50 $50
$1,000,000 $200 $100 $100
$5,000,000 $1,000 $500 $500

After cashback, the effective maker cost is 0.01%.

Bitget Taker Fee Examples

Using the standard 0.06% taker fee:

Trading Volume Standard Fee 50% Cashback Effective Cost
$10,000 $6 $3 $3
$50,000 $30 $15 $15
$100,000 $60 $30 $30
$500,000 $300 $150 $150
$1,000,000 $600 $300 $300
$5,000,000 $3,000 $1,500 $1,500

After cashback, the effective taker cost is 0.03%.

Bitget Cashback Calculator Example

Consider a futures trader generating:

$1,000,000 in taker volume

At the standard Bitget futures taker fee of 0.06%:

$1,000,000 × 0.06% = $600

Trading fees:

$600

With 50% cashback:

$600 × 50% = $300

Cashback earned:

$300

Final effective trading cost:

$300

Effective fee:

0.03%

Now imagine the same trading volume occurring multiple times throughout a month.

That is when cashback can have a much larger financial impact.

Monthly Bitget Futures Fee Example

Suppose a trader generates $200,000 in taker trading volume per day for 22 trading days.

Monthly trading volume:

$200,000 × 22 = $4,400,000

Standard Bitget taker fee:

0.06%

Monthly fees:

$4,400,000 × 0.06% = $2,640

With 50% cashback:

$2,640 × 50% = $1,320

Final effective trading cost:

$1,320

The trader therefore recovers:

$1,320 in trading fees

Here are several examples:

Daily Taker Volume Monthly Volume Standard Fee 50% Cashback Effective Cost
$50,000 $1.1M $660 $330 $330
$100,000 $2.2M $1,320 $660 $660
$200,000 $4.4M $2,640 $1,320 $1,320
$500,000 $11M $6,600 $3,300 $3,300
$1,000,000 $22M $13,200 $6,600 $6,600

These examples assume the same 0.06% taker fee and 50% cashback throughout the calculation.

Actual trading costs can vary depending on account conditions, promotions, product type, order execution, and changes to the applicable fee structure.

Why Bitget Cashback Matters for Futures Traders

Trading fees can have a larger impact on futures traders because futures trading often involves higher notional trading volume.

For example, a trader may have a $10,000 account but generate significantly more than $10,000 in monthly trading volume by repeatedly opening and closing positions.

Each transaction can generate additional fees.

This makes trading fee cashback particularly relevant for:

  • Futures traders
  • Scalpers
  • Day traders
  • High-volume traders
  • Copy traders
  • API traders
  • Traders frequently using market orders

The objective should not be to increase trading volume simply to earn more cashback.

Cashback is most useful when it reduces fees from trading activity you were already generating.

Bitget Maker vs Taker Fees

One important part of understanding Bitget futures fees is knowing the difference between maker and taker costs.

At the standard rates:

Trading Volume Maker at 0.02% Taker at 0.06%
$100,000 $20 $60
$500,000 $100 $300
$1,000,000 $200 $600
$5,000,000 $1,000 $3,000
$10,000,000 $2,000 $6,000

After 50% cashback:

Trading Volume Effective Maker at 0.01% Effective Taker at 0.03%
$100,000 $10 $30
$500,000 $50 $150
$1,000,000 $100 $300
$5,000,000 $500 $1,500
$10,000,000 $1,000 $3,000

This demonstrates why order type and trading volume can significantly affect overall trading costs.

However, fees should not be the only consideration when choosing between maker and taker orders.

Execution speed, liquidity, slippage, risk management, and strategy remain important.

Bitget Trading Fee Savings at $10 Million Volume

For a trader generating $10 million in monthly taker volume:

Standard taker fee:

0.06%

Standard trading cost:

$10,000,000 × 0.06% = $6,000

With 50% cashback:

$6,000 × 50% = $3,000 cashback

Final effective cost:

$3,000

Effective fee:

0.03%

The trader saves:

$3,000

At the same volume and fee structure, that could represent $36,000 in cashback across 12 months, assuming the same volume, eligibility, cashback percentage, and trading fees remained unchanged.

Do You Need to Trade Through TetherBack?

No.

You continue executing your trades directly through Bitget.

TetherBack is not a trading terminal and does not replace your Bitget account.

The purpose of TetherBack is to connect eligible trading activity to the cashback program.

Does TetherBack Hold Your Bitget Funds?

No.

Your trading balance remains on Bitget.

You continue using Bitget for:

  • Deposits
  • Futures trading
  • Spot trading
  • Position management
  • Account management
  • Withdrawals

TetherBack provides the cashback layer.

Do You Need an API Key to Connect Bitget?

The account connection process is based around your Bitget UID.

Your UID is an account identifier and is different from sensitive login or withdrawal credentials.

Never provide passwords, two-factor authentication codes, or other security credentials to services that do not require them.

Are Bitget Funding Fees Included in Trading Fees?

No.

Trading fees and futures funding payments are different costs.

The 0.02% maker fee and 0.06% taker fee discussed in this guide refer to futures trading transaction fees.

Funding payments relate to perpetual futures positions and depend on the applicable funding rate.

They should not automatically be included when calculating trading fee cashback.

Is Bitget Cashback Worth It?

For someone who rarely trades, the absolute cashback amount may be relatively small.

For an active trader generating significant monthly volume, the numbers can look very different.

Consider two traders who each generate:

$5,000,000 in taker volume

Trader A Without Cashback

Trading fee:

0.06%

Total trading fees:

$3,000

Final cost:

$3,000

Trader B With 50% TetherBack Cashback

Trading fee:

0.06%

Total trading fees:

$3,000

Cashback:

$1,500

Effective trading cost:

$1,500

Both traders generated the same hypothetical trading volume.

The second trader simply recovered part of the fees generated by that activity.

That is the core benefit of trading fee cashback.
