Trading Fees
Starzip uses a maker/taker fee model. Taker orders - those that fill immediately against the order book - are charged 0.15%. Maker orders - those that rest on the book and add liquidity - are charged 0.03%. The fee is deducted at execution and settled in the quote currency (USDT or USDC).
Fee rates may change as the market matures. Any change is announced in advance through official channels, and the current rates are always published here and in the app.
Token Sale Fees
Buying and selling back during a token sale each carry a 0.15% fee, applied to each order. When the sale supply is sold out and the business owner confirms the listing, a 5% listing fee is applied to the sale proceeds collected so far. The listing fee is paid by the business owner, not by buyers.
Gas Fees
Starzip operates on BNB Smart Chain (BSC). All on-chain transactions require gas fees paid in BNB.
- Regular users pay gas fees in BNB for all on-chain actions, including deposit, withdrawal, and trade settlement.
- Business accounts on the Starzip Console do not pay gas - Starzip sponsors gas on their behalf, so their on-chain actions carry zero gas cost.
Deposit & Withdrawal
Starzip does not charge a platform fee for deposits or withdrawals. To start trading, users deposit funds into a settlement contract. When finished, funds can be withdrawn back to your connected wallet at any time.
- Deposit - Transfer funds from your wallet to the Starzip settlement contract. Network gas applies.
- Withdrawal - Transfer your balance from the settlement contract back to your wallet. Network gas applies.
- No additional platform fee is charged for either deposit or withdrawal.
