Bitget, the world's largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has announced the launch of Zero-Fee Mode for Bitget CFD, introducing a commission-free account option designed to make CFD trading more flexible, transparent and accessible.
The launch comes as Bitget CFD continues to record strong growth. According to the company, daily trading volume reached $8 billion in May, bringing the platform closer to the $10 billion milestone and reflecting increasing demand for multi-asset trading products within a unified trading environment.
With the introduction of Zero-Fee Mode, Bitget CFD now operates under a dual-account structure designed to accommodate different trading styles.
The platform's existing ECN Mode remains available for professional traders, short-term participants and high-frequency strategies that prioritize tighter spreads and are comfortable paying volume-based commissions.
The newly launched Zero-Fee Mode targets users who prefer a simpler pricing structure. Instead of paying commissions on trades, users access the market through standard spreads, creating a more straightforward cost model that may appeal to newer traders and those seeking greater predictability.
According to Bitget, the update was driven by user feedback and growing demand for more intuitive trading experiences.
Rather than forcing all users into a single pricing model, the company says traders can now choose the account type that best matches their trading style, capital allocation and experience level.
"Multi-asset access is becoming the new standard for trading platforms, and CFD is central to how Bitget is delivering that future," said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget. "By introducing Zero-Fee Mode, we are providing users with greater flexibility to engage in global markets, further advancing our mission to make financial opportunities more accessible within a single, integrated ecosystem."
The launch reflects a broader trend across the industry as crypto traders increasingly seek exposure to traditional financial markets without leaving exchange platforms.
Bitget has previously reported that non-crypto assets accounted for as much as 40% of trading activity on certain days this year, highlighting growing interest in diversified trading opportunities.
Gold and U.S. indices lead demand
Among the platform's most actively traded CFD products, gold and major U.S. stock indices continue to dominate user activity.
Bitget identified gold and the NAS100 index as its two most popular CFD markets, helping drive overall trading volume growth throughout 2026.
The company views this demand as further evidence that traders increasingly want access to both digital assets and traditional financial instruments through a single account and trading interface.
The launch of Zero-Fee Mode forms part of Bitget's broader Universal Exchange (UEX) strategy, which aims to integrate crypto assets, traditional financial products and tokenized markets within one ecosystem.
Within that framework, Bitget CFD serves as a bridge between cryptocurrency trading and traditional market exposure, allowing users to access commodities, indices and other global markets alongside digital assets.
By adding a commission-free option, Bitget is expanding accessibility while providing traders with greater flexibility in how they engage with multi-asset markets.
