# Fees

Trading fees are **set per token** when it launches. There is no single rate for every token. The desk shows the rate for the token in front of you, read at the moment of the quote.

## What a trade can be charged

| Charge | Applies to | Set by | Goes to |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Base fee | buys and sells | comfy's policy when the token launched | part to comfy, the rest to the token's creators |
| Creator tax | buys and sells | the creator, at launch; optional | the token's creators |
| Opening fee | buys only, falling to zero after trading opens | the creator, at launch. By default it starts at the highest rate allowed and falls to zero over 5 minutes | split like the base fee |

"The token's creators" are the launcher and any recipients they added. See [Share creator fees](../launch/share-creator-fees.md).

* On a buy, fees are charged on the 0G you pay.
* On a sell, fees are charged on the 0G you receive.
* Fees are **included** in your estimate. While a token's opening fee lasts, the desk's fee details show it at its current rate.
* Network gas is separate.

A token's **fees** tab shows each earner's part of every trade, and what its creators have earned and claimed.

## Affiliated tokens

A token marked **Affiliated** can trade on a different kind of pool, and iAI does. Its desk lists its own charges:

* a pool fee and a venue fee, on buys and on sells,
* on a sell, the fee is taken from the tokens you sell,
* the fees go to the pool's liquidity providers and to comfy's treasury, not to creators.

Like every launch's opening fee, iAI's falls after its launch and shows in the desk's fee details while it lasts. While iAI's is high, the desk also asks you to confirm it before you buy.

## Compute

A token's **fees** tab also shows its compute share: the part of creator fees credited to a compute account. The creator sets it on the launch form, which starts it above zero, and the wallet that launched the token can change it on that tab. comfy can change where an unlocked compute share is delivered.

An agent you run can spend the credit on model calls through a capped key you make with `comfy compute key mint`. comfy never holds the key. The credit cannot be withdrawn, and the account must bill in 0G.
