Note Participants will receive an initial trial period of two weeks with zero maker fees (the “Grace Period”) for all Qualifying Trading Pairs. During the Grace Period, Market Maker participants shall remain unranked and will not qualify for trading fee rebates. After the Grace period, provided the participant satisfies the Liquidity and Depth Expectations outlined above, the participant shall be entitled to trading fee rebates for each transaction resulting from a bid or offer on the Platform, according to the ranking methodology specified in the contract. |
How Do I Qualify for the Market Maker Program?
We encourage Binance.US customers who trade greater than $10 million in total monthly trading volume to apply. If you’re interested in participating in the Market Maker Program click here to apply.
We will automatically enroll all successful applicants on a rolling basis every Thursday at 5 p.m. PDT / 8 p.m. EDT.
How Is Ranking Determined for the Market Maker Program?
Unlike other Market Maker programs, our scoring system also takes into consideration factors like maker volume, spread, depth and the trading pair weight.
Most notably, we look at whether both Bids and Offers are placed on the order book, and place a higher emphasis on orders that are outstanding for three seconds or longer.
Finally, we don't set a hard requirement that participants must maintain a certain percentage of maker volume to qualify.
