Fee Distribution Types
Five Fee Distribution Type
At launch, creators choose one of five models for how their custom fees are used. This choice defines the economic philosophy of the token.
1. Staking Pool Distribution (POB Staking) ⭐
Custom fees go into a staking pool and are distributed to holders who stake their tokens. Only stakers earn - rewarding long-term conviction. Creators must also stake to receive a share.
Best for: Creators who want to prove commitment and build community alignment
How traders benefit: Stake to earn fees from trading activity
2. Creator Keeps Fees
100% of custom fees go directly to the creator's wallet, claimable at any time. This is the legacy model.
Best for: Creators who need direct revenue from their token
How traders benefit: Transparent - traders can see this model is active and decide if the fee is fair
3. Buyback & Burn
100% of custom fees are used to buy back the token from the open market. Buybacks happen automatically and bought-back tokens are burned, reducing supply.
Best for: Projects focused on passive value accrual for all holders
How traders benefit: Reduced supply = price support without requiring staking
4. Liquidity Compounding
100% of custom fees are added back into the token's liquidity pool, deepening liquidity over time.
Best for: Projects focused on price stability and reducing slippage as they grow
How traders benefit: Deeper liquidity = less slippage on larger trades
5. No Custom Fee
Custom fees are set to 0%, meaning traders pay only the base platform fees. No additional costs on any trade.
Best for: Community tokens, memecoins, or any launch where minimizing trader friction is the priority
How traders benefit: Lowest possible trading costs, no creator fee layer on top of platform fees
The fee model a creator chooses tells you a lot about their intentions. Check it before you buy.
