Inconsistency between commissions shown on website vs what is shown in the platform

[intmainvoid314]

Per the following link, the commission rates for micro-futures on a lifetime license is $0.09 (9 cents): https://ninjatrader.com/Futures


However, In the commissions section of the NinjaTrader platform, it lists MES contracts (using them as an example for micros) with a minimum commission of $0.51 and a per-unit commission of $0.56

This seems to be a pretty big discrepancy, I'm curious if this is a known issue, and do I need to create a custom commission template to get around this? I can understand a discrepancy if this were for NinjaTrader platform yet a different brokerage, but it stands to reason that the platform/brokerage being from the same company should be consistent, so I'm a little confused about this discrepancy existing at all.

Hello intmainvoid314,

Thank you for the message.

The underlying Commission rate specifically is 9 cents, $0.09, for a Micro contract. You then have to add in the Exchange, NFA, and Order Routing fees which total at 56 cents, $0.56.

Please see the following link for the full PDF of all of the different instruments and their Commissions and Fees:
