Taker Fee

The fee charged when your order removes liquidity from the order book by filling immediately against existing orders.

Definition

The fee charged when your order removes liquidity from the order book by filling immediately against existing orders. Market orders always pay taker fees. Taker fees are usually higher than maker fees because you're consuming the liquidity that market makers provide.
