Where every fee goes
One 1.25% swap fee funds the whole platform. Here is its exact, enforced split.
ubi.fun charges exactly one fee: 1.25% on every swap. No launch fee, no claim fee, no withdrawal fee. That single fixed stream funds creator income, holder income, buyback floors, and referrals.
The split
The table uses $10M of trading volume as its basis. This is the clearest way to compare launchpads because headline percentages often hide the base they use.
| Recipient | Share of fee | Per $10M traded | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Creator + their buyback | 56% | up to $70,000 | Divided between the creator and their coin’s auto-buyback by the slider they set once at launch |
| Holders (the UBI pool) | 24% | $30,000 | Paid daily in USDC to holders of traded coins |
| Team | 15% | $18,750 | |
| Referrer | 5% | $6,250 | Accrues per swap to whoever routed the volume |
For scale, a 70% creator share of a typical 1% launchpad fee is $70,000 per $10M. That is the same creator take-home as our 56% of 1.25%. The difference is what happens to the rest: here, most of it goes back to holders.
What “enforced” means
- The holder share cannot be redirected. The 24% flows through an immutable, ownerless splitter contract with no owner, no setters, and recipients fixed at deploy. The fee legs feeding it have bytecode-level floors, so no configuration, global or per-pool, can route the holders’ share anywhere else. Not even we can.
- The creator’s slider is written once. Set at launch, no setter exists. What a coin shows is what it does, forever.
- Fees batch per pool. Each coin’s fees accumulate inside the protocol and distribute once they cross $1. Small pools pay out in chunks rather than dust, and nothing is ever lost below the line.
What the protocol owner can still do, and what that means for you, is disclosed plainly in Security model.
