Summary: Indian crypto exchange WazirX introduces subscription model eliminating per-trade fees, launching December 1 with 15-day free trial for all users.
Mumbai — WazirX, one of India’s cryptocurrency exchanges, announced a subscription-based trading model that removes per-transaction fees in favor of a flat monthly charge, marking a significant shift in how Indian traders pay for crypto transactions.
The platform will launch WazirX ZERO on December 1, 2025, allowing users to trade unlimited cryptocurrency for ₹99 per month plus applicable taxes, according to an official blog post published by the exchange.
How the New Model Works
Under the traditional fee structure in Indian crypto markets, traders typically pay 0.4 to 0.5 percent on each buy and sell transaction. WazirX stated these costs accumulate regardless of whether trades generate profits or losses.
The exchange provided an example: a trader executing ₹10,000 in buy and sell orders ten times monthly could accumulate approximately ₹6,000 in annual trading fees under conventional pricing.
WazirX ZERO eliminates these per-trade charges. Users pay the monthly subscription and can execute unlimited orders across all available cryptocurrency markets without additional transaction fees.
Free Trial Period
WazirX will offer existing account holders a 15-day complimentary access period from December 1 through December 15. During this window, users can trade without any fees to experience the new model.
New users who register on or after December 1 will receive the same 15-day free pass after making their first deposit to the platform.
After the trial period ends, users can choose to continue with the ₹99 monthly subscription or revert to the pay-per-trade structure with standard transaction fees.
Market Context
The announcement comes as Indian cryptocurrency traders navigate a market where trading costs have remained largely unchanged despite platform evolution. WazirX framed the initiative as addressing a persistent cost burden that reduces returns for active traders.
The exchange did not disclose projected adoption rates or whether other Indian platforms might introduce similar pricing models. Additional details about the program are expected in coming days, according to the company statement.
Indian crypto traders can access WazirX ZERO starting December 1, with the subscription option available alongside traditional fee-based trading indefinitely.
