# Protocol fees

Our protocol charges a 10% fee (currently reduced to 5% during the promotion) on the profit of depositors. 

20% of that fee will be shared through the referral rebate mechanism. 

We charge a 0% trading fee for makers. When creating a bot or using our strategies, all users will act as makers.
