Crypto fee tiers

Crypto orders placed with smart exchange routing qualify for fee tiers. As your eligible 30-day trading volume increases, your fee rate decreases. Fees range from 0.10%-0.85%.

Fee tiers are based on the trailing 30-day trading volume of crypto orders executed with smart exchange routing. In the app, you can turn smart exchange routing on and off for orders of certain crypto.

Smart exchange routing is the only routing setting available on mobile advanced charts, the mobile ladder, and Robinhood Legend. However, on mobile advanced charts, orders of crypto ineligible for smart exchange routing will use market maker routing. Market maker routing orders don’t use fee tiers or count toward tier progress.

Included in volume:

  • Executed crypto orders placed in the app with smart exchange routing, including all orders on the ladder and certain orders on advanced charts
  • Executed crypto orders placed on Legend

Not included in volume:

  • Executed crypto orders placed in the app with market maker routing (default for standard trades), including certain orders on mobile advanced charts
  • All executed crypto orders placed on web classic or through the Crypto API
  • Recurring crypto investments
  • Fees paid
Note

Your all-in costs may be higher or lower with smart exchange routing compared to market maker routing, depending partly on volume traded. Pricing may vary across routing settings, and neither guarantees better pricing execution. Learn more in Crypto order routing.

Tier upgrades

Tier upgrades

Your 30-day smart exchange routing trading volume is updated immediately after order execution, with tier upgrades unlocked at trading volume milestones. Your new, reduced fee takes effect with your first order after the upgrade.

Tier upgrades are locked in for 7 days, meaning your tier may be upgraded again in that period but will not be downgraded. Your fee rate for a given order is determined by your tier at the time the order is placed. Lock periods may vary for special offers. Review the FAQ below for more details.

You can view your current fee tier and 30-day trading volume executed through smart exchange routing in a few different ways.

  • In the app: widget in the order type menu (smart exchange routing must be enabled)
  • Trading experience in the app and on Legend: link in fee tooltip (smart exchange routing must be enabled in the app)
  • Web classic: crypto tab under Account. Note that smart exchange routing is not supported on web classic.

Notifications

Notifications

You’ll always get a push and email notification when your fee tier is upgraded. To get notified when you’re close to an upgrade or downgrade, turn on fee tier status alerts in your app settings.

FAQ

FAQ

Does my fee tier take into account the order I’m currently placing?

No. Your 30-day trading volume excludes the order you're currently placing. Volume is only updated after the order is executed.

Will conditional orders execute using my fee tier at the time of placement or execution?

Your fee tier is determined at the time the order is placed. If your tier changes between placement and execution, it won’t affect the fee.

If I don’t have smart exchange routing turned on in the app, which of my orders qualify for fee tiers?

All of your crypto orders placed on the mobile ladder and Legend would qualify for fee tiers, since smart exchange routing is the only routing setting available for these features. Orders of certain crypto placed on mobile advanced charts with smart exchange routing would also qualify. Remember, only crypto orders executed with smart exchange routing count toward your eligible 30-day trading volume.
