Pay Binance Fees with BNB — How to Turn It On and How Much You Save

BNB (Binance Coin) is Binance's native platform token. Beyond its investment value, one of its most practical uses is paying for trading fees at a significant discount. This article explains the BNB fee deduction rules, how to enable it, and key details you should be aware of.

How Much Can You Save

Using BNB to pay trading fees gives you a 25% discount. For spot trading, the standard fee rate is 0.1%, which drops to just 0.075% with BNB deduction enabled. For frequent traders, this discount adds up to substantial savings over time.

Here is how the discount applies:

Spot trading: 25% off standard fees
Futures trading: BNB fee deduction also applies with a discount
Margin trading: BNB fee deduction is supported

How to Enable BNB Fee Deduction

In the App:

Open the Binance App (download the latest version from https://goto.xultra.org/xiaoyi1/apk?utm_medium=web_share_copy)
Tap your profile icon in the top-left corner to open settings
Find the "Use BNB to Pay Fees" or "BNB Fee Deduction" option
Toggle it on

On the Web:

Log in to the Binance website
Click your profile icon in the top-right corner and go to "Dashboard"
Find the BNB fee deduction option in the fee-related settings and enable it

Q: Do I need to do anything manually after enabling it?

A: No. Once BNB fee deduction is turned on, the system automatically deducts the equivalent amount of BNB from your spot account as the fee for each trade. The process is fully automatic — you just need to make sure you have enough BNB in your account.

How Much BNB Do I Need

You do not need to buy a large amount of BNB upfront. The system deducts BNB equivalent to each trade's actual fee. A good approach is to estimate your monthly fee expenditure based on trading volume and keep a corresponding amount of BNB on hand.

For example: if your monthly spot trading volume is 50,000 USDT, the standard fee would be 50 USDT. With BNB deduction, the actual fee is 37.5 USDT worth of BNB. At a BNB price of 600 USDT, that is roughly 0.0625 BNB per month.

Q: What happens if my BNB balance is insufficient?

A: When your spot account does not have enough BNB to cover the fee, the system automatically switches to deducting the fee in the traded currency at the standard rate (no BNB discount). It is a good practice to check your BNB balance regularly and top up as needed.

BNB Deduction Priority

Binance's fee deduction follows a specific priority:

Check whether BNB fee deduction is enabled
If enabled, check whether the spot account has sufficient BNB
If BNB is sufficient, use it and apply the discount
If BNB is insufficient, fall back to the default fee payment method

An important note: when using BNB deduction for futures trading, BNB is deducted from your spot account, not your futures account. So even if you primarily trade futures, you need to keep BNB in your spot account.

Stacking BNB Deduction with Other Discounts

Q: Can BNB fee deduction be combined with referral rebates?

A: Yes, they stack. When you register a Binance account through https://goto.xultra.org/xiaoyi1 with referral code P394YSTZ, you receive a referral rebate. On top of that, enabling BNB fee deduction gives you the additional 25% discount — both apply simultaneously, further reducing your trading costs.

BNB deduction also stacks with VIP tier fee discounts. The higher your VIP level, the lower your base rate — add the BNB discount on top, and your effective fee becomes highly competitive.

Additional Benefits of Holding BNB

Beyond the direct fee discount, holding BNB comes with several other perks:

Participation in Binance Launchpad token sales
Access to BNB-exclusive earn products on Binance
Potential long-term value appreciation of BNB itself
Benefits from BNB's periodic token burn mechanism

Enabling BNB fee deduction is a fundamental step every Binance user should take. This simple setting saves you 25% on trading fees regardless of your trading volume.
