Swaps
Swaps have a 1% Monavo fee with a $0.01 minimum. Gas is covered by Monavo. ATA setup applies only when the receiving token account must be created.
Monavo pricing explained
Monavo pricing is built around two everyday wallet actions: swapping assets and sending USDT.
Gas is covered by Monavo in supported flows, while fees and any one-time token account setup are shown before confirmation.
In short: Swap fee or transfer fee, with Solana gas covered by Monavo in supported flows.
Two simple pricing models
Monavo shows the relevant price before confirmation. Swap pricing and transfer pricing are separate because they
support different wallet use cases.
Transfers and payments
Sending USDT uses a small fixed fee, currently about $0.02. Solana gas is covered by Monavo for the transfer flow.

The transaction is completed on Solana
ATA setup is only needed when the required token account does not already exist.
What you are actually paying for
For beginners, the easiest way to think about swap pricing is to separate platform cost from blockchain and market costs.
1) Monavo fee
This is the clearest part of the price. Monavo applies a 1% service fee and shows the quote before you confirm.
2) Market execution
Your swap is executed through liquidity pools on decentralized exchanges. Depending on the route, standard pool fees and price impact can slightly affect the final output.
3) Solana-specific setup
On Solana, receiving a token for the first time may require creating an associated token account. This is usually a one-time setup, not a repeated charge on every swap.
Why the final received amount can change slightly
The quote is based on real-time market conditions, but blockchain markets can move between quote and execution.
- Liquidity in DEX pools can change before you confirm.
- Large swaps may create price impact.
- The first time you receive a token, Solana may require one-time token account setup.
Common fee questions
- What fee does Monavo charge?
- Do I need SOL in my wallet to swap?
- Why can my first swap of a token cost slightly more?
