Its best not to completely trust an online wallet. You better pay fees from your desktop wallets or other wallets (where you have full control of your funds and private keys), than be sorry latter. There might be a chance of online wallets getting hacked or going down (coinbase users actually know how it feels, as they have been there) and you losing access to your fund when you need it most.

I prefer pay the transaction fees than to risk my money. There are many platform existing right now. but Bitfinex, Bittrex, and Binance are good exchanges

To be honest, I am not a great fan of saving money by compromising security point of view. However, there is one more method of transferring Bitcoins from one person to another without paying a transaction fee. One can use coupon system from the localbitcoins platform and generate the coupon equivalent to the transaction amount and sending that coupon to the person (receiver of Bitcoin). I haven't used this method much but impressed with such idea of transferring funds from one point to another, especially in the case of microtransactions. However, localbitcoins charge some fee for the incoming transactions too and this is something really weird.
