# Fee comparison

> Side-by-side fee matrix across all Raydium products — swap fees, protocol shares, creation costs, and how Token-2022 transfer fees stack on top. A single-page lookup for expected costs.

<Info>
  This page is a lookup table. Use it to answer "what does a swap on pool X cost?" or "how much SOL do I need to create a CLMM pool?" — without digging through each product's chapter. For protocol-level fee splits, see [`ray/protocol-fees`](/ray/protocol-fees).

## Swap fees per product

Fee values are percentages of the input amount, applied before pool math.

| Product                              | Available tiers         | Default / most-used | Split                                                             |
| ------------------------------------ | ----------------------- | ------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **AMM v4**                           | 0.25% (only)            | 0.25%               | 88% LP, 12% protocol (22/3 of 25)                                 |
| **CPMM**                             | 0.01%, 0.25%, 1%        | 0.25%               | 100% LP (protocol share configurable per AmmConfig, currently 0%) |
| **CLMM**                             | 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.25%, 1% | 0.25%               | 88% LP, 12% protocol                                              |
| **LaunchLab (pre-graduation)**       | 1% (default)            | 1%                  | 50% to pool seed, 50% to LaunchLab treasury                       |
| **LaunchLab (post-graduation CPMM)** | 0.25%                   | 0.25%               | Inherits CPMM split                                               |

### Fee denominator convention

* **AMM v4**: fees are encoded as x/10,000. "25" means 0.25%.
* **CPMM/CLMM**: fees are encoded as x/1,000,000. "2500" means 0.25%.

When reading on-chain data directly, use the correct denominator for the pool's program.

## Protocol fee splits

Within the "protocol" share of each fee, further splits apply:

| Product   | Protocol share of swap fee                | Split within protocol      |
| --------- | ----------------------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| AMM v4    | 12% (3/25)                                | 100% to treasury           |
| CPMM      | Configurable per AmmConfig (currently 0%) | N/A                        |
| CLMM      | 12% of swap fee                           | 100% to treasury           |
| LaunchLab | 50% of swap fee pre-graduation            | 100% to LaunchLab treasury |

The **LP share** flows to LP token holders automatically:

* AMM v4 / CPMM: accumulated in pool reserves, distributed pro-rata on withdrawal.
* CLMM: accumulated in `fee_growth_global_X/Y`, claimable via `collectFee`.

## Creation costs

One-time costs paid in SOL to deploy a pool.

| Product          | Rent cost                                              | Creation fee            | Total typical |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ | ----------------------- | ------------- |
| AMM v4           | \~0.15 SOL (multiple accounts)                         | 0.2 SOL                 | \~0.35 SOL    |
| CPMM             | \~0.04 SOL (pool + vaults + observation)               | 0.15 SOL                | \~0.19 SOL    |
| CLMM             | \~0.075 SOL (pool + observation + initial tick arrays) | 0 SOL                   | \~0.075 SOL   |
| Farm v6          | \~0.02 SOL (farm state + reward vaults)                | 0.1 SOL (anti-spam)     | \~0.12 SOL    |
| LaunchLab launch | \~0.015 SOL (bonding curve account)                    | 0.1 SOL (LaunchLab fee) | \~0.115 SOL   |

All rent is recoverable — closing the pool / position / farm returns the lamports.

## Graduation / migration costs

| Event                       | Cost                                             | Who pays                         |
| --------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------- |
| LaunchLab → CPMM graduation | \~0.04 SOL (new CPMM pool creation)              | Paid from bonding-curve reserves |
| AMM v4 → CPMM migration     | \~0.04 SOL CPMM creation + \~0.000005 SOL tx fee | LP performing the migration      |
| CLMM position NFT transfer  | \~0.000005 SOL tx fee                            | Transferor                       |

## Network fees per typical operation

These are Solana base + priority fees, separate from Raydium protocol fees.

| Operation                    | CU                    | Base fee     | Priority fee (10k µL/CU) | Total network |
| ---------------------------- | --------------------- | ------------ | ------------------------ | ------------- |
| CPMM swap                    | \~140,000             | 0.000005 SOL | 0.0014 SOL               | \~0.0015 SOL  |
| CLMM swap (no ticks)         | \~170,000             | 0.000005 SOL | 0.0017 SOL               | \~0.0017 SOL  |
| CLMM swap (4 tick crossings) | \~320,000             | 0.000005 SOL | 0.0032 SOL               | \~0.0032 SOL  |
| Open CLMM position           | \~280,000             | 0.000005 SOL | 0.0028 SOL               | \~0.0028 SOL  |
| Farm v6 stake                | \~130,000             | 0.000005 SOL | 0.0013 SOL               | \~0.0013 SOL  |
| Claim farm rewards           | \~160,000             | 0.000005 SOL | 0.0016 SOL               | \~0.0016 SOL  |
| Migrate v4 → CPMM (2 tx)     | \~200,000 + \~200,000 | 0.00001 SOL  | 0.004 SOL                | \~0.004 SOL   |

Priority fees scale linearly with CU price; see [`integration-guides/priority-fee-tuning`](/integration-guides/priority-fee-tuning).

## Token-2022 fee interaction

When one or both sides of a pool use Token-2022 with a transfer fee, the effective fee compounds:

```
net input to pool   = amount_in × (1 − transfer_fee_in)
pool charges swap   = net × swap_fee_rate
net output to user  = out × (1 − transfer_fee_out)
```

Example: CPMM 0.25% pool, input side has 1% transfer fee, output side has 0.5% transfer fee.

```
amount_in        = 1000
net_to_pool      = 1000 × 0.99    = 990
pool swap fee    = 990 × 0.0025   = 2.475 (kept as LP fee)
amount_after_fee = 987.525
amount_out (AMM) = 987.525 × ratio, say 987.525 × 0.98 = 967.77
net_out_to_user  = 967.77 × 0.995 = 962.94
```

Effective fee: **\~3.7%** despite a nominal 0.25% pool fee.

The SDK computes the effective rate via `getComputeAmountOut` — always use it when quoting Token-2022 pools.

## LaunchLab specifics

| Phase                              | Fee                            |
| ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| Bonding curve trades (buy or sell) | 1% (split 50/50 pool/treasury) |
| Graduation (one-time)              | \~0.04 SOL from curve reserves |
| Post-graduation (CPMM pool)        | 0.25% (standard CPMM fees)     |

Projects launching tokens often include a "creator fee" option (0–0.3%) taken out of the LP share during the bonding-curve phase; configurable at launch. The creator fee is **bonding-curve only** — once the launch graduates to a CPMM pool, the resulting pool runs at the standard CPMM tier with no creator surcharge. See [`products/launchlab/creator-fees`](/products/launchlab/creator-fees) for the full lifecycle and how creators continue to earn from graduated pools through the LaunchLab NFT mechanism.

## Farm v6 reward cost model

Farms don't charge fees per se — they're reward distribution. But they cost SOL to operate:

| Cost                   | Typical                             |
| ---------------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| Farm creation          | 0.1 SOL anti-spam + \~0.02 SOL rent |
| Top-up reward vault    | Just the tokens + \~0.0005 SOL tx   |
| Reclaim unused rewards | \~0.0005 SOL tx                     |

Farms also require enough lamports in the reward vault to cover rent for the lifetime of the farm; closure returns them.

## Historical parameter changes

| Date     | Change                                      | Authority        |

## How to read current values on-chain

### CPMM/CLMM AmmConfig

```ts theme={null}
const config = await raydium.cpmm.getAmmConfigs();
console.log(config[0]);
// {
//   id: "...",
//   tradeFeeRate: 2500,         // 2500 / 1_000_000 = 0.25%
//   protocolFeeRate: 0,         // 0 / 1_000_000 = 0%
//   fundFeeRate: 0,
//   ...
// }
```

### AMM v4 pool

```ts theme={null}
const poolInfo = await raydium.liquidity.getPoolInfoFromRpc({ poolId });
console.log(poolInfo.ammFeesNumerator, poolInfo.ammFeesDenominator);
// 25, 10000 → 0.25%
```

### Farm v6 reward rate

```ts theme={null}
const farm = await raydium.farm.getFarmInfoFromRpc({ id: farmId });
console.log(farm.farmData.rewardInfos);
// Per-reward: emissionsPerSecond, startTime, endTime
```
