Backpack Plans Pricing
Backpack Exchange uses a volume-based maker/taker fee schedule with tier upgrades determined by the higher of (a) 30-day trailing trading volume, (b) BP Stake amount, or (c) pre-TGE Mad Lad NFT holdings. Tiers are recalculated hourly. There is no monthly subscription fee for API access — fees are paid per filled trade. Sub-account trading volume rolls up to the main account for VIP tier purposes.
