Binance Plans Pricing
Binance does not charge for API access itself; commercial pricing is expressed as spot/futures trading commissions and a tiered VIP fee schedule based on 30-day trading volume and BNB holdings. API connectivity, market data, and WebSocket streams are provided at no cost to authenticated users; revenue is captured per-trade. Higher VIP tiers also confer raised request weight ceilings.
