Understanding All the Fees

Updated June 27, 20265 min read

The Fees, Plainly

Bitlendex keeps fees minimal and transparent. Here's everything you might pay on a loan:

  • Origination fee — 2%: a one-time fee applied to every loan.
  • Network fees: standard Bitcoin transaction fees when you deposit or withdraw collateral, plus a small bridge/network fee on the USDC payout.
  • Conversion (bank payouts only): when you receive fiat, a small spread applies to convert USDC to USD through our banking partner.

No surprise fees

There are no prepayment penalties, no monthly maintenance fees, and no account fees. You'll see your costs before you confirm a loan.

Why You Receive Slightly Less Than You Borrow

The fees above come out of the loan, so the amount that reaches you is a little lower than the headline figure. For a $40,000 loan, the 2% origination fee is $800, plus a small network fee — so you'd receive just under $39,200.
