By executing the <a href=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/blog\/glossary\/what-is-a-buy-order\/\">buy or sell order<\/a> created on the orderbook, takers remove liquidity from the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Market takers are charged a taker fee since they get the freedom to enter and exit a position instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Takers are understood better by comparing their roles with their counterparts known as Makers. Market makers are traders who add <a href=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/blog\/glossary\/liquidity-pool\/\">liquidity<\/a> to the market when they initiate a trade. They are motivated by the <a href=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/blog\/glossary\/what-is-a-transaction-fee\/\">fees earned<\/a> from the taker, and the potential benefit from the spread difference between the buy and sell orders during market volatility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Takers are attracted to <a href=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/blog\/dex-vs-cex\/\">exchanges<\/a> with deep liquidity and favorable placed orders. This increases trading volume and attracts more takers (and makers).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Browse the Paybis Glossary to master more web3 lingo!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Alternatively, explore related terms and articles below.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A taker is a person or an entity that executes a trade by accepting a previously  submitted order.
