Fees & limits
Every number that decides who gets what, and every limit the launch form and the jobs enforce. Where the operator can change a number, this page shows the default and the value in force right now.
Fees
| Fee | Rate | Set by |
|---|---|---|
| Creator fee, bonding curve | No data yet. 0.30% of volume at the time of writing | pump.fun |
| Creator fee, PumpSwap | Whatever pump.fun sets for migrated tokens; it can differ from the curve | pump.fun |
| Platform share | 20% of each sweep by default, plus rounding dust. Recipients share the other 80% | Slice, per token at launch |
| Launch | Nothing from us. pump.fun’s account rent and the network fee, paid by the deployer | pump.fun, Solana |
| Claim or autopay | Nothing. The network fee is paid from the platform share | Slice |
| Burn | Nothing from us. The buy pays the market’s own trading fees and price impact | pump.fun, PumpSwap, Jupiter routes |
Settings, default and now
These are runtime settings. The operator can change them from the console without a release, and a change applies from the next job run. The platform share is the exception: each token keeps the value it launched with.
| Setting | Meaning | Default | In force now |
|---|---|---|---|
| Platform share | Of each sweep, fixed per token at launch. Applies to new launches | 20% | No data yet |
| Sweep minimum | A token is swept once its vaults, and any fees waiting in its creator address, hold at least this | 0.01 SOL | No data yet |
| Claim minimum | Smallest balance a claim can send | 0.01 SOL | No data yet |
| Autopay threshold | Autopay sends the balance once it reaches this | 0.05 SOL | No data yet |
| Burn minimum | A token is bought and burned once its burn orders reach this | 0.02 SOL | No data yet |
| Treasury reserve | Kept back for network fees and rent; payouts, burns and withdrawals never dip into it | 0.05 SOL | No data yet |
| Largest first buy | The most SOL a launch can spend buying its own token | 50 SOL | No data yet |
| Buyback | Share of new platform shares spent buying and burning the platform token | Off, 50% when on | No data yet |
The console refuses values that would break the rules above: a platform share over 50%, a sweep or claim minimum below 0.001 SOL, an autopay threshold below the claim minimum, or a burn minimum below 0.005 SOL.
Switches
Each job has its own pause. A paused job does nothing and loses nothing: fees wait in the vaults, queued payouts wait in the queue, burn orders wait for their run.

Money limits
- One open payout per X account. A second claim is refused until the first has landed.
- A claim sends the whole balance. The API accepts a smaller amount, never below the claim minimum.
- A payout that expires without landing is replaced by a new one, three attempts in all; after that the amount returns to the balance.
- One unresolved sweep per token, and one open burn run per token.
- A token whose sweep fails is swept again after 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, then 64 minutes, and on schedule again once a sweep confirms.
- A burn run is tried three times before its orders go back to the pool.
- A payout goes to a wallet: an ed25519 public key that is unused or a plain system account. Program-derived addresses, token and program accounts, the treasury and the mints and fee addresses of tokens launched here are refused.
- Balances never expire.
