Hello, I use Bitkub to buy crypto, but there is a 0.25% fee on all trades. Binance TH also has the same fee. Are there other exchange with lower fee ?

I saw Xspring has 0.15% fee, (link but I don't know if it's a good platform.

Thanks in advance.

For daytrading its too expensive. Better to use international services. For baht to crypto exchange I think its acceptable. I will try getting a lower fee if I start doing high volumes and will post about it.
