[Polymarket Announces Introduction of Taker Fees for Nearly All Trading Categories Starting March 30] According to a report by Jinse Finance, on March 26, prediction market platform Polymarket announced a major policy adjustment. Starting March 30, it will introduce Taker fees for nearly all trading categories for the first time. The new fee structure adopts a variable rate, with peak fees for cryptocurrency-related contracts reaching as high as 1.8%. Actual fees will vary along a curve based on share prices and market dynamics. Lower tiered rates will apply to categories such as sports, finance, politics, culture, weather, and general topics, while peak fees for referenced categories and certain economic predictions will be higher, around 1.5%. Notably, geopolitics is the only category completely exempt from fees, highlighting Polymarket's strategic focus on high-risk global events. This change marks the end of Polymarket's long-standing appeal of 'zero fees.'
