"Gate VIP fee table" is a high-frequency search, but most of the "precise to several decimal places" tables you find online are already out of date: Gate has adjusted its fees and thresholds more than once. So I'm not going to hand you a "hard table" and mislead you; that would be irresponsible. What I'll give you is the framework, the trend and the ranges, plus where to look up the real current numbers. Understand the structure here, then check the live values on the official page, and you're on far firmer ground than copying an old table.
01What the VIP system looks like
Gate's VIP is a tiered membership system, climbing from a regular user up, tier by tier. Gate's fee page (checked 2026-09-25) lists 17 levels, from VIP0, where every account starts, to VIP16. The higher the tier, the lower the trading fees, and there are usually some perks alongside (higher withdrawal limits, a higher personal cap on VIP-tagged HODLer Airdrop projects, and so on).
Each tier maps to two things: the threshold to reach it (holdings or volume), and that tier's maker/taker fees. A regular user is the starting rate; the higher the VIP, the lower the fees go. Launch participants care about VIP especially, because it sets the personal cap on VIP-tagged HODLer Airdrop projects; for how that ties to GT, the GT complete guide covers it more fully.
02Fees per tier: read the range, don't memorise a number
The table below gives the structure and rough ranges, to build an intuition for "about where each tier sits." All specific fees are per Gate's official fee page as shown at the time, will be adjusted, and shouldn't be taken from this table as a precise quote.
| Tier | Rough position | Maker fee trend | Taker fee trend |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regular user | Starting point | Base level (higher end of the range) | Base level (higher end of the range) |
| Lower VIP (e.g. VIP1–3) | Entry membership | A little below regular | A little below regular |
| Mid VIP | Active trader | Clearly below entry tiers | Clearly below entry tiers |
| Upper VIP | Large / high-frequency | Lowest in the range; maker can be very low, near zero | Lowest in the range |
Two patterns, that's all: higher tier means lower fees, and maker is usually below taker (the resting-order side is cheaper than the taking side, to encourage providing liquidity). As for whether a tier is 0.something or 0.0something, go read the current number on the official page; I won't give you a precise value here that may already have changed. To estimate fees against your own volume, the spot fee calculator with the real rate plugged in is most direct; to compare tiers side by side, the VIP fee quick-reference pulls the structure for you.
Print a changing number as if it were fixed, and the moment it changes the reader is misled. Fees are "subject to change anytime" information, and the responsible move is to teach you the structure, give you the range, and point you to the official page to verify the current value. That's this site's consistent stance on all fee content.
03Levelling up: holdings or volume
Levelling up VIP usually has two independent routes; meet either to map to the matching tier:
Route one: GT (or asset) holdings
Hold GT up to a tier's threshold (or qualifying assets) in your account and you map to that VIP tier. Gate measures the GT side as a 14-day average: the mean of your daily GT holdings over the past 14 days, so GT bought yesterday only counts for a fraction. This route suits people who don't trade much but are willing to hold GT long term: you don't earn the tier by churning volume, you earn it by "holding." But remember GT's own price swings, so hoarding a pile of GT to level up means carrying an extra dose of GT price risk. We've worked through the lowest tier's (VIP1) holding threshold and whether it pays off in a separate piece: how much GT for VIP1, and is it worth it.
Route two: 30-day trading volume
Hitting a volume of cumulative trading over the past 30 days also maps you to the matching tier. The figure isn't a plain sum: the glossary on Gate's fee page counts spot (Convert included) and stock trading in full, futures at 40%, and options and a few other products at smaller weights. This route suits people who already trade frequently: your turnover lifts you up naturally, with no extra hoarding.
The threshold values for both routes get adjusted by Gate, so defer to the official VIP page as shown at the time. Generally, whichever condition you meet first applies, and the one that favours you takes effect.
04How GT deduction stacks on VIP
Here's the point many people tangle: the VIP discount and GT fee deduction are two separate layers.
- VIP tier sets your base fee rate: which tier you're on maps to which fee level.
- GT deduction is paying the fee in GT at settlement and getting a corresponding fee discount.
The two usually stack: you have a VIP base rate, then enable GT deduction and get the GT-payment discount on top. The actual fee discount is per the exchange's page, and whether and how they stack is per Gate's official rules. For the steps to enable and set it, how to set up GT fee deduction has a step-by-step; to see roughly how much the stack saves, the GT fee-discount calculator runs it for you.
05What fees mean for a high-frequency trader
If you trade a handful of times a month, the fee level barely affects you and there's no need to chase a VIP tier. But if you're a high-frequency or large trader, fees are a real cost line: same turnover, a slightly different rate, and over time the cumulative difference is no small sum.
For these people, the VIP plus GT deduction combo is genuinely worth it, because it presses down a cost you generate every day. Judging whether it pays is simple: take your real 30-day turnover, run it through the spot fee calculator, and compare the total fees under different rates: the gap is the scale of what levelling up saves you. Note that's "scale," not a "precise promise," since fees change and the result changes with them.
A common wrong turn with VIP: being set on levelling up, hoarding GT to reach a holding threshold, then realising your trading frequency isn't high at all, so the fees saved don't cover the price risk GT carried over that stretch. The yardstick can be plain: first look at how much you actually trade in a month. If it isn't much, use the base rate, maybe enable GT deduction, and don't carry holding risk for a tier badge. Fee optimisation saves money for the genuinely high-frequency; it isn't a tier everyone needs to collect.
06How to check which tier you're on
Don't guess; look inside Gate directly. After logging in, go to the account / VIP centre (the fee-related page), which shows your current VIP tier, the corresponding maker/taker fees, and how far you are from the next tier in holdings or volume. That's the only authoritative and currently accurate source, more reliable than any third-party table (this article included).
While you're there, confirm two things: whether your fee already includes GT deduction (is it enabled), and whether you're closer to levelling up by holdings or by volume, so you know where to push next.
VIP tier thresholds, maker/taker fees and GT deduction rules all defer to Gate's official VIP and fee pages as shown at the time. This article is a structural explanation; the fees described are ranges and trends, with no fixed precise values. Gate adjusts fees and thresholds fairly often, so the current data shown inside your account after logging in is the final word. The level count (VIP0–VIP16), the 30-day volume weighting and the 14-day average GT definition come from the glossary on Gate's fee page (gate.com/fee), read on 2026-09-25.
