Fee changes in September

Tracking began in September, so this edition has nothing earlier to compare against.

Data
Each exchange's own fee page, read by hand and re-checked monthly; no exchange publishes a data feed. A reading is recorded when a tracked fee differs from the last one stored.
Like for like
Trading-screen fees are at the entry tier, what a new account pays. Fees are each exchange's last reading on or before 30 September 2026. An estimated fee is never ranked, and neither a move in our estimate nor a correction of ours counts as a change.
Scope
The cost of buying, on exchanges open to Australians and registered with AUSTRAC, as listed on BankMate. Factual comparison, not financial advice. Methodology · Today's full ranking
