Monetizing what matters: we sell speed, not trades.
Most trading venues charge a fee to trade, but give their biggest customers - the market makers - deep discounts on their fees.
At PAX, the majority of our customers trade with zero fees, including ordinary traders who would normally pay the highest fee tier at existing venues. PAX makes money by selling access to its λ API, a feature that is open to every PAX client but primarily of use to market makers.
Realized fee or rebate rate depends on blend of order types. Learn more
Most venues make every order cross the network.
Existing platforms require that orders originate from external servers. New market data travels out to your server, and your order travels back.
That round trip takes about 20 µs at the fastest traditional venues and 1 to 10 ms at crypto venues.
Co-Location on a chip: trade from the same silicon as the matching engine.
PAX delivers zero-distance trading. Your orders aren't delayed by network latency when new market data is published; they fire instantly. An order placed through the PAX λ API has a speed advantage over orders placed from external servers.
On the chip, the same round trip takes about 40 ns, 500x faster than the 20 µs (20,000 ns) at the fastest traditional venues.
It's the fastest path from decision to execution in any market, anywhere.
Built for Wall Street and Main Street
Institutions need trusted infrastructure: third-party custody and settlement, plus ultra-low latency matching. Retail traders deserve the same institutional-grade protections without the institutional barriers.
With transparent pricing, no hidden fees, and speed as a service, PAX ensures every trader gets a fair shot at the best execution possible.
