| Fee conditions & evidence | Taker fee = size x price x (1 - price) x taker_fee_rate, default "taker_fee_rate": "0.020000" (2%); makers receive "maker_rebate_share": "0.250000" (25% of the taker fee). Configured per market (https://docs.pascal.trade). Review evidence · Official fee source | Taker fee = shares × category rate × price × (1 − price). For 100 crypto shares at $0.50 with rate 0.07, the fee is $1.75 on a $50 purchase: 3.5% of purchase cost, not 1.75%. Rounding and any rebates must be considered separately.
