Aarc is committed to complete fee transparency. We currently do not charge any additional protocol or service fees , users only incur the standard blockchain and liquidity provider (LP) costs outlined below.

​
Fee Components

  1. Gas Fees
    • Context: Payment to blockchain validators for processing each transaction step.
    • Typical Range: Fluctuates based on network congestion, transaction complexity, and current gas prices.
    • Implementation: Aarc bundles bridging, swaps, and final calls into a batched transactions, reducing the total number of approvals and manual steps.
  2. Liquidity Provider (LP) Fees
    • Context: Cost to DEXes, aggregators, or bridge providers facilitating asset swaps and transfers.
    • Typical Range: Often 0.05%–0.3% depending on the asset pair and selected route.
    • Implementation: Deducted from the swapped or bridged amount. We always aim to minimize these costs.
  3. Max Slippage
    • Context: This provides a buffer against price changes between quote generation and transaction confirmation.
    • Typical Range: A typical slippage might be 0.2%, balancing execution finality with capital efficiency.
    • Implementation: 
      Max Slippage (%) = [(Quoted Amount_Out - Minimum Amount_Out) / Quoted Amount_Out] × 100 + 0.02%
  4. Price Impact
    • Context: The effect of trade size on market price, particularly for large trades or lower-liquidity pairs.
    • Implementation: 
      Price Impact (%) = [(Quoted Amount_In_USD - Quoted Amount_Out_USD) / Quoted Amount_In_USD] × 100
    • Note: Aarc’s aggregator logic seeks routes with minimal price impact, though market-driven changes cannot be completely eliminated.
