Universal Exchange, Bitget, announced on Tuesday an update to its peer-to-peer fee structure for the Naira Fiat Pair, designed to enhance liquidity and support evolving trading activity utilising the currency.
According to a statement from the exchange on Tuesday, under the revised structure, takers, users who fill existing orders on the NGN market, will incur zero fees, while advertisers (makers) providing liquidity will be charged a fee of 0.1 per cent on both buy and sell orders. This applies specifically to trades involving the Nigerian Naira on Bitget’s P2P marketplace.
The updated fee mechanics aim to simplify access for users executing trades while ensuring a balanced cost for those contributing liquidity. Bitget said that it will continue to monitor market conditions and may introduce additional refinements or supportive measures as needed.
Bitget’s P2P marketplace enables users to directly buy and sell supported fiat currencies for cryptocurrency with one another using local settlement options, broadening access to digital assets without reliance on traditional banking rails.
The Chief Marketing Officer of Bitget, Ignacio Franco, said, “This change reflects Bitget’s ongoing effort to adapt trading infrastructure in key regional markets and to maintain an efficient P2P trading environment tailored to local demand.” Our priority is to continuously refine our marketplace to better serve local communities.
“By introducing zero taker fees for NGN P2P trades while maintaining a competitive structure for makers, we aim to stimulate liquidity and make crypto access even more seamless for the currency users. We remain committed to adapting our infrastructure to evolving market dynamics and supporting sustainable growth across key fiat currencies.”
