Open the lesson →Entry and fees: Neither asks for a minimum deposit, and both charge an identical 0.10% maker and 0.10% taker on spot; Phemex lists a 0% spot fee on its premium tier. On futures the taker fee is the same at 0.06% on both sides, while on the maker side Phemex's 0.01% undercuts Bitget's 0.02%. For traders who mainly add liquidity with limit orders, Phemex is marginally cheaper; for everyone else the cost difference is practically nil.
Products and platforms: Both are built around crypto derivatives and run on their own web platform and app. Bitget lists Bitcoin, Ethereum, altcoins, futures and copy trading, quotes over 800 cryptocurrencies and describes itself as the leading copy trading platform in crypto; a $300M protection fund for users is listed as a strength. Phemex lists Bitcoin, Ethereum, altcoins, spot and perpetual futures with up to 100x leverage, quotes order execution under 1 ms and a testnet for risk-free practice; per its record its liquidity is lower than at the top exchanges. Neither offers classic options.
Profile and verdict: Bitget (3.7/5 from 900 reviews) was founded in 2018 and is based in the Seychelles; Phemex (3.6/5 from 550 reviews) was founded in 2019 and sits in Singapore. Both state their regulation as "various" and have no EU regulation, and both name the high risk of leveraged derivatives. If you want to copy experienced traders and pick from a larger coin list, Bitget is the fit; if you trade futures yourself with limit orders and want to practise on a testnet first, Phemex is.
