# Why are Finst fees so much lower compared to other cryptocurrency platforms?

We believe retail investors are paying far too much for their crypto investments, next to the fact that fees are not always made transparent to investors. Therefore, we decided to apply the same fees to our retail clients than professional investors are used to. We can do this by building all our systems in-house and by reducing our margins, while still ensuring the safety and sustainability of our business.
