How to Use BNB to Get a Discount on Binance Fees?

BNB fee deduction is one of the most practical money-saving features on the Binance platform, yet many beginners don't even know it exists and end up paying more in fees than necessary.

If you don't have an account yet, register through the Binance official site, or download the APK for more convenient mobile access.

How Much Does BNB Deduction Save?

With BNB deduction enabled, spot trading fees get a 25% discount. The standard 0.1% rate drops to 0.075%. The difference seems small, but it adds up significantly with higher trading volume.

Suppose your monthly trading volume is 100,000 USDT. Without BNB deduction, fees total 100 USDT; with it, only 75 USDT — saving you 25 USDT directly.

How to Enable BNB Deduction

Step one: Make sure you have some BNB balance in your spot account. You don't need much — the system will automatically deduct the corresponding BNB based on your trading volume.

Step two: Open the Binance App or web version, go to your personal center, find the "Use BNB to Pay Fees" toggle, and turn it on.

How BNB Deduction Works

Once enabled, the fee generated by each trade is automatically converted to an equivalent amount of BNB and deducted from your account. For example, if your fee would be 1 USDT, after the discount it's 0.75 USDT, and the system will calculate and deduct the corresponding amount of BNB at the current market price.

Important Notes

Your account must maintain sufficient BNB balance. Otherwise, the system will automatically fall back to paying fees in the trading currency, meaning you won't get the discount.

It's a good idea to buy some BNB in advance and keep it in your spot account. You don't need a lot — estimate based on your trading frequency. Generally, a few dozen USDT worth of BNB will last a while.

Futures trading currently does not support BNB deduction — this discount only applies to spot trading.

BNB's Intrinsic Value

Beyond fee deduction, holding BNB also lets you participate in Launchpad token sales, Earn products, and other activities. So buying BNB isn't just about saving on fees — it's also an investment in itself.

Bottom line: as long as you're trading on Binance, there's no reason not to turn on BNB fee deduction. Simple to set up, real savings.
