Verdict

3Commas runs DCA, grid and signal bots on 9 exchanges through API keys, from $15/mo on annual billing, with no per-trade fee on top of the exchange. It relaunched as V2 with WunderTrading in September 2026, so users need a new account and the V2 mobile apps are not out yet. In December 2022 it confirmed a leak of users’ API keys.

PROS+ No per-trade fee on top of the exchange+ DCA, grid and signal bots on spot and futures+ Works with 9 exchanges
CONS− Paid plans only (free trial)− V2 needs a new account; no V2 app yet− API key leak confirmed in December 2022

FAQ

Are 3Commas trading bots free?

No. Plans start at $15/mo billed annually ($20 monthly); the pricing page shows a free trial, not a free plan.

What is the minimum for a 3Commas grid bot?

There is no platform minimum; the grid bot needs at least $5 per order, plus the exchange’s own minimums.

Can I use 3Commas bots in the United States?

The terms bar only sanctioned countries and persons and do not name the United States. Your exchange’s rules still apply.

3Commas grid vs DCA: which to choose?

A grid bot earns from many small trades while price moves inside a range. A DCA bot buys in steps to lower the average entry price and suits a longer trend. Fees matter more for grids because they trade more often.
