WILMINGTON, Del., April 27, 2026 -- Compass Mining, a leading provider of Bitcoin mining infrastructure and services, today announced its new partnership with SpiderPool, the world's fifth-largest Bitcoin mining pool. The partnership will offer Compass Mining customers a 1% pool fee on Spider Pool's FPPS payment method, representing a 75% reduction compared to the pool's standard 4% fee.
The move comes as Bitcoin miners focus on cost efficiency amid tightening margins and historically low hashprice. By aggregating customer hashrate across its platform, Compass Mining is able to negotiate preferential rates typically reserved for larger operations. This agreement gives customers a way to reduce pool fees and improve payout consistency.
"Users were asking for better rates, so we delivered. We constantly try to understand our community's pain points and add as much value as we can," said Shanon Squires, Chief Mining Officer at Compass Mining. "Thanks to this partnership, our customers will enjoy the same industry-low rates that typically require large-scale commitments."
Spider Pool is a SOC 2 Type 1 & Type 2 certified operation that currently accounts for around 8% of global Bitcoin block production, making it one of the industry's largest and most established mining pools. As part of the partnership, SpiderPool will list Compass Mining as a preferred hosting partner on its website.
"From the transparency of our mining pool to our focus on non-custodial models, we have proven our commitment to decentralization and empowerment of individual miners, and so has Compass Mining," said Jack Chen, Founder at SpiderPool. "We are very proud to offer this special rate to their community and hope it can make a meaningful difference for their mining economics."
Compass Mining customers can access the discounted SpiderPool FPPS rate by setting up a SpiderPool sub-account with a "compass" prefix and linking it in their Compass Mining Dashboard. Once connected, the discounted fee is applied automatically. Check out the step-by-step guide to access the SpiderPool fee discount here.
