The short version
KuCoin or Bitget: what the published fees say.
KuCoin and Bitget land on the same fee index, 6.0 out of ten, so published fees do not separate them.
Both list the same futures taker rate (0.06%). Both list the same futures maker rate (0.02%). Two market orders on a $10,000 position cost $12.00 at KuCoin and $12.00 at Bitget, before funding.
KuCoin: spot altcoin range with futures alongside. Bitget: copy trading on spot and futures. Neither venue has been through a funded AffMiss test, so this page compares what each one publishes, not how each one fills.
Both venues are scored with the same formulas on fees read the same day. If a figure here disagrees with the venue’s fee page, the fee page is right and this page is out of date.
