Many people trade for a long time without ever checking how much they've spent on fees. Understanding your fee spending is the first step toward optimizing your trading costs.
Checking Fee Records on the App
Open the Binance App, go to "Trade" → "Orders" → "Order History," and tap on any completed order. Expanding the details will show you the fee amount and which currency it was paid in.
If you have BNB fee deduction enabled, the fee will show as paid in BNB rather than the traded asset itself.
Another path: "Wallet" → "Transaction History" → filter by type "Fee" to see all fee-related deductions.
Viewing and Exporting on the Website
Log into Binance on the web, click "Orders" in the top right → "Order History," then select spot or futures to see the fee breakdown for each order.
To export in bulk: go to "Orders" → "Trade History" → click "Export," select a date range, and the system will generate a CSV file sent to your email containing execution prices, quantities, fees, and more.
How to Calculate Your Total Fee Spending
After exporting the CSV, open it in Excel and find the fee column. Subtotal by currency. If your fees are spread across BNB, USDT, BTC, and other currencies, you'll need to convert them to a single currency using the exchange rates at the time of each trade.
A quick estimate: if your total trading volume is around 100,000 USDT at the default 0.1% rate, your fees are approximately 100 USDT. With BNB deduction enabled, that drops to about 75 USDT.
Using Fee Data for Tax Reporting
In some countries and regions, trading fees can be deducted as costs to reduce taxable gains. It's a good idea to regularly export and keep your trade records. Binance supports API integration with tax tools like Koinly for easier year-end calculations.
The Value of Regular Reviews
Set aside a few minutes each month to review your fee spending. If the numbers seem high, check whether your BNB balance ran out (causing the deduction to stop working), or whether you've been making too many unnecessary short-term trades. If you haven't registered yet, signing up through a referral link gives you a fee discount from the start, reducing your overall spending.
