Fees
The schedule
Section titled “The schedule”| Operation | Rate | Charged on |
|---|---|---|
| Buy | 1% | Each buy you click, including buys added after a launch bundle. |
| Sell | 1% | Each sell you click, with one wallet or several. The same 1% applies to each wallet. |
| Wallets, a coin and its launch buys | No fee | Creating wallets, creating the coin, and the DEV and holder buys in its launch bundle carry no Drill Desk fee. Buys added after the bundle are ordinary buys. |
| Ghost | 2% total | The settled SOL proceeds of the sale leg, after Pump.fun’s or PumpSwap’s own fee and before network costs; never your whole position. It is the whole Drill Desk fee: the sell and the rebuy carry no further fee. |
| Sell from a launch wallet | 3% total | A launch wallet selling the coin it launched. It is the whole Drill Desk fee for that sale, never added to the ordinary 1%. The sale’s plan shows each wallet’s rate before you confirm. |
| Creator-reward claim | 3% total | Creator rewards successfully claimed through Drill Desk. Accrued or unclaimed rewards are not charged, and no trade fee is added to a claim. |
How a fee is worked out
Section titled “How a fee is worked out”- The rate follows the operation. A sell from a trading wallet is 1%, even for a coin you launched. A launch wallet selling its own coin is 3%.
- One fee per operation, never stacked. Ghost’s 2% and a launch wallet’s 3% are each the whole Drill Desk fee for that operation; nothing is added to them.
- On what settles. The policy charges on the amount an operation moved, after the venue’s own fee. For one-click trades as built today, the fee is taken with the trade and capped. A buy pays at most 1% of the amount you clicked; a sell, at most 1% of the least it must return. Whether a sell is finally charged on quoted or settled proceeds is still under review.
- Rounding. A fee is rounded up to the whole lamport, pending accounting review.
- Shown before you confirm. On the ticket’s pricing lines, in Ghost’s review and in a launch plan’s costs. A transaction whose fee differs from this schedule is refused in your browser before it is signed.
Never charged
Section titled “Never charged”- No subscription.
- No fee to create wallets or a coin, and none on the DEV and holder buys in its launch bundle.
- No Drill Desk fee for a failed or unconfirmed operation, or for anything done outside Drill Desk. A failed transaction can still cost network fees.
- No cashback, rebate or discount for referred members.
Separate from Drill Desk’s fees
Section titled “Separate from Drill Desk’s fees”- Pump.fun and PumpSwap charge their own trading fees, shown before you trade.
- Protocol, priority, rent and relay costs are passed through and shown before you confirm.
Invitations and referrals
Section titled “Invitations and referrals”Invitations are links. A member who can invite sends you one; open it and the invitation is in place. Nothing to type, no waitlist, and Drill Desk stays invitation-only.
General referrals are coming soon; nothing is paid out today. Any commission would come out of Drill Desk’s own fee, never out of what an invited member pays.
Where these rates come from
Section titled “Where these rates come from”The rates are the owner-approved fee policy, compiled into the desk’s fee manifest. Your browser checks every fee-owing transaction against that manifest before anything is signed, and a test checks this page against the policy in the repository.
