Tiered Fees Use Prior-Month Volumes
If you are an Equity Member trading on MIAX Pearl Equities, fees and rebates that depend on volume tiers will be calculated using quoting or trading activity from the prior month starting February 2, 2026. The Exchange says all other fee and rebate amounts remain unchanged, but the tier qualification basis moves to prior-month volumes so the fee applicable to a trade can be known at execution.
New Members Get Base Rates First Month
If you are a new Equity Member on MIAX Pearl, you will receive the Exchange's base fee and rebate rates in your first month of trading under the rule that takes effect February 2, 2026. This ensures new members are not retroactively re-rated based on current-month volume during their initial month.
