Fees ​

Drop charges zero platform fees on nearly every action. The exceptions are Solana swaps and perps. Everything else costs you only the standard blockchain network fee — and even that is covered for Premium members on Solana.

Cross-Chain Swap0%No Drop fee — only the exchange provider's network costs
  • The 0.8% Solana swap fee is shown in the swap details before you confirm, so you always see it up front.
  • Premium members pay no platform fee on Solana swaps. The fee is left out of the quote itself, so the rate you see is already the better one.
  • Cross-chain swaps (swapping between different chains, e.g. BTC → SOL) carry no Drop platform fee. You only pay the deposit and withdrawal network fees charged by the exchange provider, which are shown in the quote.

Network Fees ​

Network fees (gas) are paid to the blockchain, not to Drop. The cost depends on the chain:
