2026-06-08 10:008625
As a globally recognized financial trading platform, Bitget is committed to providing traders with more flexible, efficient, and transparent trading solutions. Its CFD offering covers a wide range of products, including forex, precious metals, energy, and stock indices, catering to traders with diverse strategies.
To further enhance the user experience, Bitget CFD has officially launched the zero-fee mode , a commission-free account model for users with different needs. This guide provides a detailed overview of the zero-fee mode, its differences from the ECN mode, and step-by-step switching instructions to help you get started quickly.
 
Mode overview
ECN Mode: The platform's original model, offering spreads close to the raw market while charging a commission based on the product type and lot size. ECN mode features transparent spreads and is suitable for short-term intraday traders and high-frequency traders.
Zero-fee mode: A newly launched feature for Bitget CFD. Users pay no trading commission, making statements clean and easy to read. It is ideal for medium- to long-term position traders and low-frequency traders. Under this model, the trading commission is waived, and the trading cost is reflected in a markup on the base spread, meaning the spread will be slightly wider than in standard ECN mode.
