Crypto Exchanges that Don't Charge Listing Fees?

[Abiky]

The process of launching a new cryptocurrency is quite a tedious one. After all, the developer (or development team) would need to make sure that the new cryptocurrency is listed on an exchange to provide liquidity for the same. Considering that centralized exchanges have dominated the space for quite some time, they've been the "go-to" route between the worlds of Fiat and crypto. I've seen many centralized exchanges these days which charge exorbitant fees for listing a coin. That's not the case with decentralized exchanges today. But they lack liquidity and provide an unfriendly experience to the end-user.

Which is why, most developers are left with no other choice but to list their coin on a centralized exchange like Binance or Bittrex. I've heard of a few centralized exchanges that are able to list a new coin if it gets an specific number of votes from the community (like Mercatox is doing right now). But I'm wondering if there are crypto exchanges out there that are able to list your coin for free without the need to obtain "x" amount of votes for listing?

If you happen to know of any crypto exchange that does this, please let me know. It could turn out to be a great start for any new cryptocurrency project which lacks funding to get listed on a serious exchange. Else, people would only be able to trade their coin of choice in a P2P manner. Any recommendations or suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I think it's rarely for a cex to list project for free unless the project is really worth listed. Like for example Dogecoin, I think they got listed for free on Binance due to its potential but for new projects I doubt there will an exchange to do it for free.


So they got no choice but to pick dex. There is a project I know cryptomarketads and they resort to all free listing but the exchanges are just all dex such as forkdelta, bitcratic and etc which is technically free for those who dont know.

Listing fee is one of the lifeblood of any centralized exchange and some "DEX". There is no way they are going to list new projects for free unless they are also a new exchange. They can offer free listing (without voting) within a few months after launching but once they gained their footing, they will also be charging some listing fees. Some may also offer no listing fees for a longer time but they'll be killing the traders with high transaction fees later.

I went over the exchanges board and found one with no listing fees according to their post.

I remember this unnamed exchange not charging listing fees before but requires new tokens/coins to do airdrops/rains in the exchange's chatbox. I'm not sure if that is still the case.

Centralized exchange only profit in withdrawal fees,trading fees and in listing fee so if they will offer a free listing their profit will only depend in the two remaining and do you think big exchanges can continue their operation using only the withdrawal and trading fees?

Exchanges have plenty of expenses like making sure that their security is up to date, they have the latest marketing techniques, hosting fees and etc. And if in case there with be a centralized exchange that will offer a free listing fee then I am pretty sure that their service are not satisfactory especially in making their exchange secure to hacks and etc.

I don't think you can find a normal exchange that list your coin without any listing fee. If they did so, their exchange platform would become a crap. Most of the projects pay fees with some percent of the amount that they got from crowdsale.

A good project must be based on a good foundation including solid funding and team management. What is worrying is that when the project has minimal funds, there is a high potential for fraud when they have received funding from investors.
We are only speaking logically. If the new project has more funds then they will not hesitate to make the best possible promotion to attract people's interest and the investor's level of confidence is definitely higher in the project. The centralized exchange which imposes high costs is not a reason for it, the exchange has also spent a lot of money to make the exchange can be large and growing rapidly as it is today.
Yes it is only natural that they put up high costs for listing tokens and new coins, once your tokens or coins enter there will surely be more popular because it is indirectly driven by the power of the big brands from the exchange.

I would like to call it with Premium VS Free service, it may be obvious at a glance. It is very difficult if we want a good and reputable exchanger that provides free facilities against new coins that want to join in their exchanger. On the other side of May there is also a free listing for new coins, but the so question is, can the maximum features and services be given to the coin? While at this time all are not free all round, the human resources that work on it must be paid also, not from the security side of the asset requires its own tools and features.

Listing fee is one of income source to exchange. if the exchange doesnt charge listing fee, of course it would be less income
it also affects on exchange progress in the future, that's why exchange should charge listing fee

In other side, trading fee is also important for exchange. it would be more result if the exchange has high volume
for attract volume, exchanges must have at least many coin, that's not one requirement, but there are others too

so, exchange takes free listing to get more coin in the exchange. sometimes it is needed to do
as long as they list good coin, I dont think it is a problem.

Kinda difficult to find one, and as what I read on the OP and it seems really the reality of cryptocurrency now, which is dominated by the centralized exchange.
The difficult part on these are those altcoin projects that are totally quality one and they have really useful uses and purposes but they have a lack of funds to be in some exchanges. Trading volume is really important for such cryptocurrency nowadays and it also describes the popularity of the altcoin unless it is manipulated.

I don't even know if even how quality your project is, still you need money to be listed on such a centralized exchange which is a sad reality.

[bitcampaign]

that is why many CEX exchanges are centralized, costing for new altcoin registrations to pay for their needs or even paying their employees' salaries, it is rarely free even though there is only decentralization, many people cannot use the DEX exchange while only registering on DEX it's free, a few years ago, registration of tokens and altcoin was usually done by voting, but unfortunately it's very rare that there are even only a few that maintain it, I think it also prevents scammers from the CEX exchange

[zhekinsp]

Most of the new cryptocurrency exchanges will listia coin for free are less fee compared to to other centralised exchanges like Binance, but there is no point on listing new coins and new exchanges because it will leads to you know trading volume at all and bad reputation for the coin in the first glance itself.

[ashmodeus]

the problem is not about listing fees or something like that, the problem is because lately,every project have a low quality,mostly i mean.
so who want give a f*ck for poor quality project ?
A first decentralized bla bla bla project.
Bla bla bla Coin, the first stupid regulated ecosystem.
damn coin , the first damn adult coin.
many project come just for instant money,of course they will never get listed to major exchange.
i am sure if there have a good project , they will easly got listed by major exchange,well probably they asking for a few % of coin supply rather than asking for a money.

Listing fee goes into alot of things and I dont think a good exchange will not demand it. I think there should be other form of payment or agreement that can cater for high fee, sometime personal relationship or presence in the space can influence listing at lower cost. Bitcoin, USDT and Ethereum cant ever pay any listing fee again, they have grown to be the pillar of cryptocurrency trade. maybe liquidity as the project grows could reduce fee for listing on exchange.

Yeah.
The only option about escaping from listing fee is that your project has to be very known (something like libra ) and exchange platforms can think that they will earn so much from trading fees so they can just skip the listing fee maybe.

Free listing doesn't work like that, there have to be votes among the projects investors and the winner will get listed on the exchange  and even the projects must be well known projects with good trading volume, if your coin is very new and you are looking for where to list for free i'm sorry I can't help you

[Thomas-s]

the Binance exchange has a "Community vote coin" and they add such projects to their exchange for free. I think that with the correct management of a business, many projects will have the possibility of a free listing on large exchanges. The project team just needs to provide arguments for the exchange of why they will be useful to this exchange. if the project has a large community and people are interested in this coin then there will be high trading volumes and the exchange will make good money

[terrific]

IIRC, CZ of Binance has announced before that even you don't have the amount to pay for the fee.
As long as your project is worth to get on their exchange, they wouldn't charge you with any fee.
Yes, they'll do it for free if the coin/token is very good and passed on their criteria.

If you are aware of the ICO era in 2017, there are a lot of free listing offered by accumulating the highest number of votes in the community. But for now, you can see rarely to none anymore. It is really difficult for a new cryptocurrency to get listed on a centralized exchange. You should have a budget for that since you have your investors that trust and support your project.

[el kaka22]

Reality is, if you are a good coin enough, nobody charges you anything to list it, if you are a coin that is basically owned by bunch of people, you are asked money since you look like centralized as well and should be able to pay up. You think binance asked vitalin to pay for listing ethereum on their website? Or usdt? Or any other major coins? They listed those to get the volume and make money from it since the public wanted to trade with them.

However, if you do a new ICO and get millions of dollars in funding and own most of the coins in the market, exchanges expect you to pay up since you are basically ruling that coin all by yourself and if there is no attention towards your coin, why would they list it? What gain could they have? So, you need to be more decentralized and also have enough volume to make binance want to list you without asking for money.

That's certainly true, mate. Everything is about business these days. And centralized exchanges live off entirely from fees (maker/taker fees, and listing fees). The cryptocurrency project needs to have a certain level of legitimacy within the mainstream world to become widely accepted by a centralized exchange. It also needs mainstream adoption and community support. An abandoned cryptocurrency has a lesser chance of being accepted by a centralized exchange, than otherwise. In the case of a DEX, it's much more affordable for anyone to list a coin, but it lacks liquidity. At least, people will be able to trade their crypto to another crypto without paying high fees. But, the coin being traded on the DEX will have a very small trading volume than other cryptocurrencies being traded on centralized exchanges.

Nonetheless, ETH-based decentralized exchanges seem to be the best way to go for listing a token for free. I've toppled across McAfeeDex which allows anyone to trade any token on the Ethereum blockchain for free. This is great, as it allows developers to save costs on listing their own coin for other people to trade in the mainstream world. It also benefits the crypto economy in some way. Still, the exchange is not as popular as I've thought it would be. Which leaves devs no choice but to gather funds to list their coin in a centralized exchange.

Listing fee is one of the lifeblood of any centralized exchange and some "DEX". There is no way they are going to list new projects for free unless they are also a new exchange. They can offer free listing (without voting) within a few months after launching but once they gained their footing, they will also be charging some listing fees.

Thank you so much for sharing this. I'll take a look at these exchanges for listing a coin for free. Although, they're not as popular or widely-known as other exchanges in the mainstream world today. But at least, it's something.
