Criteria for Onboarding

The following criteria will determine your initial market maker tier, with the highest qualifying tier being applied.

New market makers only:

1. You will receive the benefits of your initial market maker tier for the current month and the following month . If your assessed tier in the second month exceeds your initial tier, you will be automatically upgraded.

2. Starting from the third month, your tier and benefits will be adjusted automatically on the first day of each calendar month based on your performance from the previous month.

3. Required supporting documents

a. If you are applying solely as a spot market maker, please submit supporting documents relevant to spot trading.

b. If you are applying solely as a futures market maker, please submit supporting documents relevant to futures trading.

c. If you are applying as both a spot and futures market maker, please submit supporting documents for both spot and futures trading.

4. Applications to onboard as a market maker may be submitted only once within a two-month period.

Screenshots or videos showing fee rates, maker trading volume, maker trading volume ratio, market maker tier, etc.

(The screenshots or videos must include the date and your user ID.)

The following criteria will apply when assessing your spot market maker tier , and the highest applicable tier will be your tier after assessment.

All spot and futures trading pairs are categorised into different groups, each with its own fee rates to promote liquidity across different market segments.

Please refer to the pair grouping announcement to learn more about pair group strucutre.

API query endpoints for the fee rate structure and assessment parameters can be found here.

Market Maker Removal Mechanism

Market makers enjoy the benefits corresponding to the higher of their spot or futures tier.

Definitions and formulas for assessment rules

Weighted maker volume ranking

Weighted maker volume (USDT) = maker volume of the trading pair × pair weight (see Table 1)

Daily weighted maker volume = sum of all weighted maker volume across trading pairs for the day

Monthly weighted maker volume = sum of all weighted maker volume across trading pairs for the month

Example: The market maker's trading performance for the day is as follows:

a.Daily weighted spot maker volume = 100 USDT + 4000 USDT = 4100 USDT

b. Daily weighted futures maker volume = 500 USDT + 2100 USDT = 2600 USDT

a. Denominator: Total number of spot/futures market makers minus those whose maker volume during the assessment period is below 10,000 USDT.

b. Numerator: Ranking of the market maker's monthly weighted maker volume. Market makers with identical volume will share the same rank.

c. Ranking of the market maker's weighted maker volume for the month = numerator ÷ denominator (Each 10% interval determines a tier range)

i. Denominator: In March 2026, there were 100 spot market makers. Among them, 20 had a maker volume below 10,000 USDT during the assessment period. So, 80 market makers were eligible for ranking.

ii. Numerator: If a particular spot market maker ranks 5th in terms of monthly weighted maker volume

iii. Then, their weighted spot maker volume ranking = 5 ÷ (100 – 20) = 6.25%. Since 6.25% falls within the 0–10% range, the maker qualifies as a Tier 1 spot market maker.

Total market making scores

a. Daily market making score for a trading pair = maker volume × qualified trading pair ratio × market making score weight (see Table 2)

i. Qualified trading pair ratio = number of qualified snapshots ÷ total snapshots

b. Monthly market making score = sum of all daily market making scores across all trading pairs

2. Market making score ranking

b. Numerator: The rank of the market maker's monthly market making score. Market makers with the same score share the same rank.

c. Market maker's market making score ranking = numerator ÷ denominator (Each 10% interval determines a tier range)

ii. Numerator: If a spot market maker ranks 5th in terms of monthly market making score ranking, then:

iii. Their monthly market making score ranking = 5 ÷ (100 – 20) = 6.25%. Since 6.25% falls within the 0–10% range, the maker qualifies as a Tier 1 spot market maker.

3. Qualified snapshots

a. Daily data collection time: 12:00:00 AM – 11:59:59 PM (UTC+8)

b. Three snapshots are taken at random every minute, totaling 4,320 snapshots per day.

c. A qualified order snapshot must meet the following requirements:

i. Daily data collection time: 12:00:00 AM – 11:59:59 PM (UTC+8)

ii. Three snapshots are taken at random every minute, totaling 4,320 snapshots per day.

iii. A qualified order snapshot must meet the following requirements:

1). At least one buy and one sell order must have been placed at least 1 second before the snapshot time.

2). The total buy order volume must be greater than the required cumulative minimum maker volume.

3). The total sell order volume must be greater than the required cumulative minimum maker volume.

4). (Sell price of the order at the cumulative minimum maker volume – buy price of the order at the cumulative minimum maker volume) ÷ [(sell price of the order at the cumulative minimum maker volume + buy price of the order at the cumulative minimum maker volume) ÷ 2 ] ≤ required maker spread ratio (%)

5). Qualified snapshot example:

1° Suppose the required cumulative minimum maker volume per side for ETH/USDT is 3000 USDT, and the required maker spread must be less than 0.50%.

2° Ultimately, only Snapshot 2 qualifies and will be counted toward the market making score

Maker order rebate: You will receive a real-time maker order rebate when a maker order is filled

Each calendar day (12:00:00 AM to 11:59:59 PM) is the minimum unit for data collection.

Each calendar month constitutes an assessment cycle.

Daily report: The market maker daily report will be sent to the email address you provided.

Tier adjustment: Your market maker tier and benefits will be automatically adjusted on the first day of each calendar month, based on your performance from the previous month.

Classic Account Rate Limits:

Independent Rate Limits for Master and Sub-accounts

Spot, Margin, and Futures trading each have their own independent rate limits.

In Futures trading, USDT-Margined, USDC-Margined, and COIN-Margined products share the same rate limit quota.

Independent Rate Limits for Order Placement and Cancellation

UTA Account Rate Limits:

Spot and Margin trading share the same rate limit quota

Independent Rate Limits for Futures trading

Market maker accounts are not eligible to participate in rebate programs such as the Referral program and KOL program.

Combining multiple main accounts for assessment is not allowed.

The volume of sub-accounts is combined with that of the main account for calculation purposes. Sub-accounts enjoy the same tier and benefits as the main account.

If the total of the maker and taker fees for a trading pair is zero, the pair will not be included in the calculations.

Bitget reserves the right to modify the market maker assessment rules in accordance with market changes.
