Commission fees are coming soon.

​
Overview

Commission fees allow any frontend, aggregator, or integrator to embed a fee on top of BULK’s base trading fees. This is sometimes called Payment for Order Flow (PFOF), but BULK’s model is fundamentally different from traditional PFOF.

​
How It Works

An integrator sets a commission rate that is added to the standard BULK fee on every order routed through their interface. The commission is transparent and declared on-chain as part of the order. The key distinction: these are not spread-charged fees. The integrator does not internalize flow, route to a private market maker, or degrade execution quality. Every order - regardless of which frontend submitted it - is routed to the BULK Network and executed on the same deterministic order book. All participants receive the same BULK Best Bid and Offer.

​
For Builders

  • Set your commission rate per order or globally for your integration
  • Commission is applied on top of the user’s standard BULK fee tier
  • All orders are routed to the network and matched fairly - no internalization, no dark pools, no preferential routing
  • Commission earnings are credited to the integrator in real time

​
Why This Matters

Traditional PFOF creates a conflict of interest: the broker sells your order to a market maker who profits from the spread. On BULK, there is no such conflict. The integrator earns a transparent fee, the user gets the best available price from the full order book, and the network treats every order identically.
