- 2026-10-11 · Promotional pricing on real stocks extended to 2026-12-31: on 2026-10-01 we switched real-stock charges to the standard rates (USD 0.35 / 0.10%) on the basis that the promotion ended on 30 September. That was wrong. Binance's stock fee page (checked in October 2026) shows the promotion extended to 2026-12-31 23:59 UTC, so the promotional rates are still in force: a USD 0.17 platform fee on orders with a trade value of USD 340 and below, and a 0.05% spread above USD 340. The standard rates are USD 0.35 and 0.10%, and the official help page, written at standard rates, puts the threshold at USD 350. The fees article, the buying guide, the home page, the related articles and the Binance US stock trading cost calculator (its prefilled values and the threshold it calculates with) are back on the promotional rates, with both sets of prices stated side by side.
- 2026-10-11 · Wording for the charge: Binance's help-centre page What Is Binance Stock Trading states that stock trading carries no commission, with a platform fee or a spread charged instead. We had called the same charge a "platform fee" in some places and a "spread" in others, and had also written that real stocks are "not zero commission". The wording is now "no commission, but each order pays a platform fee or a spread", and the gap between buy and sell prices in the market is called the "bid-ask spread". The calculator's "saved with our referral code" comparison has been removed as well: we have not found an official statement on whether the referral discount applies to this charge on stocks.
- 2026-10-11 · Which asset sale proceeds are credited in: the home-page sample card and the brokerage comparison said you get USDT after selling. Per the same help-centre page, stock sale proceeds are credited as USDC to the Funding Account and settle on a T+1 cycle. Both now say so.
- 2026-10-11 · Who issues bStocks and how they are backed: several articles said bStocks are "issued by Binance itself" and "fully backed 1:1". Per the official bStocks FAQ (English page updated 2026-07-28; the Chinese page shows 2026-07-29), the issuer is BTech Holdings Limited, and each bStock is intended to be backed by a corresponding underlying security or other eligible assets. The articles now use the FAQ's wording.
- 2026-10-11 · Prices on the home-page sample card: the share price and price change shown on the home-page sample card were not market data and have been removed.
- 2026-10-01 · Binance US-stock promotional pricing has ended (this entry was wrong; see the first 2026-10-11 entry above): at the time, on the basis that the 0.05% / USD 0.17 promotional rates ended on 2026-09-30 23:59 UTC, we moved the fee figures, worked examples and both cost calculators on this site to the standard rates. The promotion had in fact been extended to 2026-12-31.

- 2026-09-16 · Real stocks described as "zero commission": several articles and the home page called Binance's real US stocks zero commission. Real stocks are not free of charges: the fee page at the time showed promotional rates of 0.05% / USD 0.17 (then marked as valid until 2026-09-30 23:59 UTC, later extended), and it is bStocks token trading that takes no commission. We've rewritten the fees article, the home page and the related guides product by product, and fixed the two cost calculators, which had the two rates prefilled the wrong way round. For the promotion period and the standard rates, see the two 2026-10-11 entries.
- 2026-09-16 · How we described the SEC's measures: we previously wrote that "the US SEC is studying or discussing forcing the delisting of tokens that carry no dividend or voting rights." That sentence had no source and has been removed. The report date and original link for the SEC's delay of its "innovation exemption" for tokenized stocks are in the regulation piece; other articles no longer repeat it.
