### Polymarket

Polymarket trading fees depend on the market category and share price:

* **Maker:** 0 bps (0.00%) – no trading fee.
* **Taker:** variable – depends on the market category and share price.

For taker orders, Polymarket uses a fee-rate parameter in the following formula:

`Fee = Shares × Fee Rate × Price × (1 − Price)`

Current fee-rate parameters include:

* **Crypto:** 0.07
* **Sports:** 0.05
* **Finance:** 0.04
* **Politics:** 0.04
* **Economics:** 0.05
* **Culture:** 0.05
* **Weather:** 0.05
* **Other / General:** 0.05
* **Mentions:** 0.04
* **Tech:** 0.04
* **Geopolitics:** 0

These values are **not fixed percentages of trade value**. The effective taker fee changes with the share price and is highest around a $0.50 share price.

**For example,** for a Crypto market with a fee rate of `0.07`, a trade of 100 shares at $0.50 results in a fee of: `100 × 0.07 × 0.50 × 0.50 = 1.75`

The trade value is $50, so the effective fee in this example is **3.5% of the trade value**, not 7%.

Taker fees are calculated in USDC. Geopolitical markets are currently fee-free.

For more details, refer to the [Polymarket Trading Fees documentation](https://help.polymarket.com/en/articles/13364478-trading-fees).
