RiskMemecoins are highly speculative, and most lose nearly all their value. Nothing here is financial advice.
The short answer
pump.fun charges nothing to create a coin and 1.25% on every trade on the bonding curve. Trades made in pump.fun's own apps pay a further 0.45% Platform Fee, and a coin pays 0.015 SOL when it graduates.
These are the figures on pump.fun's fee page, which was last updated on 17 October 2026. We checked them on 11 November 2026. pump.fun changes its fees several times a year, so check that page before relying on a number.
Creating a coin
Creating a coin has no platform fee. You pay Solana's transaction fee and the small SOL deposit the network needs for the coin's accounts: about 0.02 SOL.
- The deposit isn't a fee to pump.fun. Solana requires it for every account that holds data.
- In launches made through memetools it comes to about 0.0225 SOL, plus about 0.002 SOL for your own token account if you buy.
- A first buy made while creating the coin is a trade, so it pays the trading fees below. The pump.fun calculator adds a launch up.
Trading on the bonding curve
Every buy and sell on the bonding curve pays 1.25%: 0.95% to pump.fun and 0.30% to the coin's creator.
| Creator fee | Protocol fee | LP fee | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.30% | 0.95% | 0% | 1.25% |
On a 1 SOL buy that's 0.0125 SOL: 0.0095 SOL to pump.fun and 0.003 SOL to the creator. The fee is taken in SOL (or USDC, for a coin paired with USDC), never in the coin.
The Platform Fee
Since 17 October 2026, trades placed through pump.fun's web app or mobile app pay a Platform Fee of 0.45% on top of the 1.25%. It doesn't apply to trades sent through other interfaces.
It covers the first buy made when creating a coin in pump.fun's apps, too. Other interfaces don't pay it, but most charge a fee of their own, so compare the total.
Graduation
When a coin's bonding curve is full, it graduates to PumpSwap, pump.fun's exchange. pump.fun takes 0.015 SOL for the move, out of the curve, so no trader pays it directly.
The old 6 SOL migration fee that many guides still quote is gone.
After graduation: PumpSwap
A graduated coin's fee depends on its market cap in SOL: 1.25% at first, stepping down to 0.30% for the largest coins. The creator's share rises sharply right after graduation.
| Market cap | Creator | Protocol | LP | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 – 420 SOL | 0.300% | 0.930% | 0.020% | 1.250% |
| 420 – 1,470 SOL | 0.950% | 0.050% | 0.200% | 1.200% |
| 1,470 – 2,460 SOL | 0.900% | 0.050% | 0.200% | 1.150% |
| 2,460 – 3,440 SOL | 0.850% | 0.050% | 0.200% | 1.100% |
| 3,440 – 4,420 SOL | 0.800% | 0.050% | 0.200% | 1.050% |
| 4,420 – 9,820 SOL | 0.750% | 0.050% | 0.200% | 1.000% |
| 9,820 – 14,740 SOL | 0.700% | 0.050% | 0.200% | 0.950% |
| 49,120 – 54,030 SOL | 0.300% | 0.050% | 0.200% | 0.550% |
| 98,240 SOL and up | 0.050% | 0.050% | 0.200% | 0.300% |
Market cap here is the coin's price in SOL times its 1 billion supply. The tiers between those shown step down a little at a time; the full table, and the one for USDC-paired coins, is on pump.fun's fee page.
Fees from trading tools
Bots, terminals and launch tools add their own fee to pump.fun's. With memetools that's 1% of a buy or sale on the curve, or 0.25% with Pro.
A coin-panel buy may spend up to 10% over what you ask if the price moves, and our fee is 1% of that most, which is where 1.1% comes from. The full list is in the Documentation's fees.
Solana's own costs
Every transaction also pays Solana: a tiny fee per signature, an optional priority fee to land faster, and a deposit the first time a wallet holds a coin.
- Signature fee: 0.000005 SOL per signature.
- Priority fee: set by the app you use. memetools adds 0.0001 SOL to buys and sells.
- First buy of a coin: about 0.0036 SOL to open the wallet's accounts for it.
