Index options exchange fees
Index options trades may be subject to exchange, clearing, regulatory, or product-specific fees. These fees are set by the applicable exchange, clearing organization, or regulator, not by Clear Street. Clear Street may pass these fees through without markup when they apply.
For Cboe-listed index options, including products such as SPX, XSP, VIX, and other Cboe index options products, fees may vary based on the product, exchange, account type, order type, and other factors.

How these fees may appear
Depending on your account activity and the products you trade, index options fees may appear on your confirms, statements, activity, or other in-platform reports. The specific amount you see may depend on the product traded, contract quantity, exchange, and applicable fee schedule.
