In this article you will find the relevant information regarding the existent service fees at Exante

Updated over a month ago

Basic information on service fees:

  • Transfers to EXANTE are not charged from the side of EXANTE

  • There are no fees for transfers between your own accounts and subaccounts within EXANTE

  • You can use leverage when trading with EXANTE for free (available by default)

  • FIX API and HTTP API connection is provided for free (Live FIX API connection access is available to clients with at least 50,000 EUR or equivalent in deposit)

You can use your EXANTE account for free - regardless of funds added and instruments used. However, EXANTE may charge various commissions for specific actions, as stated below:

Fee

Applied rate

Conditions for application

Inactivity fee

50 EUR per month

An inactivity fee of 50 EUR per month will be charged from your trading account upon the lapse of 90 days (3 months) from the last trade transaction date if:

  • it has a positive balance of less than EUR 5,000,

  • has no open positions and no active orders,

  • if you haven’t performed any trades for the past 90 days (3 months).

Note: The Inactivity fee is charged for each user NOT each sub-account held.

Example: You have 6,000 EUR/GBP cash on your subaccount ABC1234.001 and 2,000 EUR/GBP, no open positions, and no trades within the last 3 months on subaccount ABC1234.002 - in this situation, you won't be charged a fee.

Withdrawal fee

30 EUR or an equivalent in other currency per transaction

This fee applies every time you withdraw funds from your EXANTE trading account and depends on the withdrawal currency. This fee can sometimes be higher during the settlement depending on the bank you use.

In some cases, the non-standard (maximum) commission (0.9% of the withdrawal amount) will be applied.

Detailed information about the withdrawal fees can be found in the Client’s area → Terms → Commissions → Withdrawal fee, excess margin fee, and fee for manual execution.

Deposit fee

0

EXANTE has no deposit fee.

Although EXANTE does not charge any fees for clients’ deposits, keep in mind that some charges may arise before the money reaches your EXANTE account. These charges may be applied by an issuing, intermediary and/or beneficiary bank that processes wire transfers.

Please contact your bank if you are unclear about transfer costs.

Equivalent to 100% annually on the exceeded value charged daily

We do not charge margin trading fees while you keep Margin Utilisation below 100%.

In case you exceed 100% of the margin, there is a fee equivalent to 100% p.a. on the exceeded value (charged per day).

As soon as Margin Utilisation in an account exceeds 100%, Margin Call e-mail titled "Urgent: Margin Call *AccountId*" is sent to you, warning about the exposure and requesting the coverage of the margin call as soon as possible.

You should also note that EXANTE reserves the right to reduce positions in your account without further warning in case the demand from the email was not met from your side.

  • The fee for manual execution (close out) in case of a margin call is 90 EUR

Shorting stocks

~12% of transaction

The default rate for easy-to-borrow stocks is 12%, albeit this can change depending on the market situation.

The rates for the short positions on the instruments can be found in the Client’s area → Terms → Overnights.

90 EUR

The fee applies for request for manual order execution in case you place an order by sending the email with the relevant information to [email protected].

That fee is charged if the instrument is available for trading in the trading platform.

Participation in voluntary corporate actions

150 EUR

A voluntary corporate action allows shareholders to choose whether to participate, often requiring additional elections and distribution of proceeds. Examples include stock rights, tender offers, and dividend reinvestments.

We encourage you to review any upcoming corporate actions and consider your options carefully.
