# Trader Fees

Trader Fees explain the costs users may pay when buying or selling tokens through BullNBear.

Fees can depend on the token stage, where the token was launched, and whether the token has already bonded.

### BullNBear Trading Fee

Users pay a **1% trading fee** on eligible trades made through BullNBear.

This applies to normal web trades and also to BullNBear launchpad coins during the **pre-bonding** and **bonding** phase.

***

### 0% Fees After Bonding

After a BullNBear launchpad coin has bonded, traders get a special advantage when trading it directly on BullNBear.

{% hint style="success" %}
BullNBear launchpad coins can be traded with **0% BullNBear trading fee** after bonding when traded on BullNBear.
{% endhint %}

BNB network fees still apply.

### BNB Network Fees

Every on-chain transaction requires a BNB network fee.

This fee is paid to the BNB Chain network, not to BullNBear. It applies to actions such as buying, selling, approvals, contract interactions, launching tokens, and claiming rewards.

BNB Chain gas is usually measured in **Gwei**.

| Gas Setting           | What It Means                            |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| Higher Gwei           | Faster confirmation, higher cost         |
| Lower Gwei            | Cheaper transaction, slower confirmation |
| Failed transaction    | Can still consume gas                    |
| High network activity | Can increase gas costs                   |

***

### MEV / Speed Fees

BullNBear may offer MEV or speed-related settings to improve execution.

These settings can be useful during launches, volatile moves, or high-volume trading periods.

| Setting           | Purpose                   | Cost     |
| ----------------- | ------------------------- | -------- |
| Standard gas      | Normal transaction speed  | Lower    |
| Higher gas / Gwei | Faster confirmation       | Higher   |
| MEV / speed tip   | Better execution priority | Variable |

{% hint style="warning" %}
Always review gas, MEV, slippage, wallet, and trade amount before confirming a transaction.
{% endhint %}
