Transparent, non-custodial, yours
Every cost in a crypto transaction
Network gas, pool fees, the platform fee, bridge costs and MEV. What each one is, who receives it, and how to read it in the quote before you sign.

What you should know
There is no single "fee" in a crypto transaction. There is gas paid to the network, a liquidity-provider fee baked into the pool price, a platform fee if the interface charges one, and sometimes a loss to transaction ordering that never appears on any invoice.
These pages separate those costs so you can name each one. FBT Swap charges 0.70% of the input amount on supported swap routes and shows it in the quote before you sign; network gas is separate and is paid to the chain, never to us.
Crypto costs are confusing because they are charged by different parties at different moments and only one of them is labelled as a fee. Network gas goes to validators or is burned. The pool fee goes to liquidity providers and is already inside the price you were quoted. The platform fee goes to the interface. And transaction ordering can take a slice that never appears anywhere at all.
Once you can name each component you can also see which ones you can actually change. Network choice moves the biggest number by an order of magnitude; almost everything else is noise by comparison.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Clear answers before you decide.
Why is gas charged on a failed transaction?
Because gas pays for computation, not for success. Validators executed the code and reached a condition that was not satisfied, so the work was done and the resources were consumed.
What is the cheapest way to reduce costs?
Changing network. The difference between Ethereum mainnet and a low-cost chain is often tens of times the size of any saving available from settings or timing.
Risk notice
Crypto assets are volatile and on-chain transactions cannot be reversed. You can lose money, including all of it. Nothing here is financial advice.
