Ouinex, a multi-asset trading platform, has announced the permanent removal of commission fees on all of its traditional finance (TradFi) derivatives products.
Instead of charging transaction commissions, Ouinex will operate on a spread-based revenue model, where the platform earns through a portion of the spread.
According to the company, this structure is designed to better align platform revenue with trader outcomes by focusing on pricing efficiency rather than per-trade fees.
The announcement comes amid growing discussion around trading costs and market structure in both crypto and traditional derivatives markets.
Retail traders on many crypto perpetual futures platforms often face higher effective costs due to fees, wider spreads, and liquidity fragmentation.
In addition, centralized limit order book (CLOB) dynamics can favor high-frequency participants with lower latency infrastructure, creating structural disadvantages for retail traders.
Ouinex says its approach addresses some of these issues by sourcing liquidity from institutional TradFi providers rather than relying solely on synthetic or fragmented liquidity pools.
The company states this allows it to offer tighter spreads while avoiding additional commission charges.
Samuel Rondot, Head of Trading and Strategy at Ouinex, said:
“Unlike many crypto exchanges, Ouinex connects traders to institutional liquidity infrastructure that has supported global financial markets for decades. By aggregating multiple liquidity providers, we’re able to offer deeper liquidity and tighter spreads. Our revenue comes from a small spread markup, but even with that, we believe the total cost remains highly competitive compared with similar perpetual products on major exchanges.”
Ilies Larbi, CEO of Ouinex, said the change is intended as a long-term structural decision rather than a short-term promotional strategy.
“This is not a temporary campaign to boost trading volume. We are permanently removing commission fees on our TradFi instruments as part of a broader effort to create a fairer trading environment for retail participants. We believe pricing transparency and long-term trust are essential for sustainable growth.”
The company said the zero-commission model reflects its broader focus on transparency and market accessibility.
By combining crypto and traditional financial products in one trading environment, Ouinex is positioning itself at the intersection of digital assets and traditional finance as demand grows for more integrated trading infrastructure.
