Fees
The flat fee
$0.30, converted to the chain's own gas token at the current price, per open or close. That's the whole schedule. It doesn't scale with position size, doesn't scale with how much liquidity you're providing, and doesn't change between a $50 position and a $50,000 one.
| Action | Cost |
|---|---|
| Open a position | $0.30 |
| Close a position (full or partial) | $0.30 |
| Collect fees | Free |
| Add liquidity to an existing position | Free |
The fee is deducted in one atomic transaction, by a router contract, before the rest of your funds ever reach Uniswap or PancakeSwap. There is no separate step where the fee could land and the position could fail to open: either the whole transaction succeeds, fee included, or none of it does.
Where the $0.30 goes
Split on-chain, in the same transaction, by the router contract itself:
| Share | Amount | Destination |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue | $0.20 | The team wallet |
| Referral vault | $0.10 | A shared vault contract, per chain |
That 2/3 · 1/3 split is written into the constructor arguments of the deployed fee-splitter contract on each chain. It is not a setting we could quietly change and not a percentage we're promising to honor · it's bytecode that was fixed the moment the contract was deployed. Anyone can read those constructor arguments on the chain's block explorer.
What's never charged
- Collecting fees costs nothing. The fee only applies to the two actions that touch a Zenith contract at all · see the custody page for why closes bypass our contracts entirely and therefore carry no fee.
- Adding liquidity to a position you already hold is free.
- A failed open costs you nothing beyond gas you'd have spent anyway. See Safety for exactly how that's guaranteed, not just claimed.
Donations
Separate from the product fee: if you want to support development directly, the /donate command in the bot shows two addresses:

These are the same wallets shown in the bot, published here so you can cross-check before sending anything.
