Start with the calculation base
A percentage needs a base. Moon’s opening fee is calculated on the money wagered. Leverage changes exposure, so a fee on the wager should not be compared directly with another venue’s fee on notional exposure.
| Charge | Published basis | Limit of the evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Opening | 1% of the wager | No ACES reduction independently confirmed |
| Performance | Minimum 10% of realised profit | The minimum is not a fixed final rate |
| Holding | Permitted under the terms | Current interval, rate and base unconfirmed |
| Pricing edge | Described in the operator’s terms | Not a fixed percentage established by this guide |
An opening-fee example
A $100 wager at the published 1% rate has a $1 opening fee. This is the opening fee alone. It does not describe total cost, settlement or a code benefit.
Moon shows applicable fees before confirmation. Read the current fee article and the public Fee Structure dialog on Moon.com.
The performance-fee minimum is not the full model
The published minimum applies to realised profit. The public ROI Fee dialog uses an interactive model. Asset, leverage, wager and execution conditions can matter. A calculation that simply subtracts the minimum rate cannot promise your final payout.
Moon says displayed profit or loss includes estimated closing execution and applicable performance fees. Final settlement can differ as market conditions change.
Why we cannot state a holding interval
The current fee article omits holding fees. Section 8.5 of Moon’s terms still permits them. We have not confirmed the current interval, rate or calculation base. An omission from one article does not prove the charge was removed.
We withdrew the earlier fixed-interval wording. See the holding-fee evidence for the source difference and the questions still open.
How to interpret a displayed rate
A standard 1% rate does not prove that your referral attribution failed. We have not confirmed a lower ACES rate. Ask official support to explain an account-specific offer before relying on it.
Keep the wager amount, fee category and quoted rate separate when checking a cost. Avoid treating a simulated example as a record of an executed bet.
Where rakeback fits
For an eligible, activated account, rakeback can return part of qualifying fees. It does not remove other costs or betting losses. Our rakeback guide explains the calculation and the activation limits.
