Fees and creator rewards
There are two fees, and they are unrelated. A one-off fee to create a coin, and the pool's own trading fee that is shared with the creator for as long as the coin trades.
Creation fee
Charged once, when you launch, in the network's native token. It is shown in the app before you sign, and it is not refundable once the transaction confirms. Gas is separate and goes to the network, not to us.
Trading fee
Every swap pays the pool's fee — the percentage shown on the trade panel. This is collected by Uniswap into the position, not taken by Muup.fun, and it is split when it is claimed.
The important detail is that a V3 pool accrues fees on both sides of the pair. A buy pays its fee in the quote token; a sell pays its fee in the coin itself. The split treats those two sides differently:
| Fee side | Creator | Platform |
|---|---|---|
| Quote token (from buys) | 50% | 50% |
| The coin itself (from sells) | 100% | nothing |
Across a normal mix of buying and selling that works out to roughly three quarters of the total fee value going to the creator. The platform's quarter is always in the liquid quote token rather than in coin dust, which is the reason the split is shaped this way rather than being an even cut of everything.
Why a fixed share rather than a valued one
Claiming
- Fees accrue in the position and are claimed, not streamed. They do not expire.
- Your dashboard and your profile both show what is currently claimable for each coin you created.
- The payout address is yours to change and only yours: the wallet credited as creator is the only one that can point it somewhere else. The platform cannot redirect it.
