Compounding funding income on KuCoin
KuCoin pays or charges funding every 8 hours. Reinvesting that income back into your position — rather than withdrawing it — compounds your capital the same way reinvested interest does, at KuCoin's prevailing rate.
Because KuCoin settles three times a day, small rate differences compound faster than a daily or weekly funding schedule would. This calculator projects capital growth over your chosen holding period at a given reinvestment rate.
KuCoin fee structure
KuCoin charges maker fee 0.02% and taker fee 0.06% on perpetual futures. Maximum available leverage is 100×. This calculator pre-fills these defaults so you get accurate results without needing to look up the fee schedule. If you are on a VIP tier with discounted fees, adjust the fee fields accordingly.
Maker orders (limit orders that add liquidity) cost less than taker orders (market orders that remove liquidity). On KuCoin, using limit orders for both entry and exit can reduce your total fee cost significantly compared to market orders.
