#### **Swap Fee**

Partners can charge a fee on the swaps they facilitate if they choose to. By default, Velora DAO collects 15% of this fee. &#x20;

#### **Surplus**

As described above, Velora DAO keeps surplus by default. If the Partner decides not to charge a Swap fee, they can opt-in to keep 50% of the surplus to be used as best suited to the Partner's interest or to direct it to the user.

**Our fee structure allows Partners to charge no extra fee**. In that case, Velora DAO takes no added fees.

#### **Mixed case**

Using swapExactAmountOutPro and swapExactAmountInPro allows the partner to keep 100% of the revenue while the protocol pays itself from the surplus (50% when it occurs)

#### What are the Velora DAO fees used for? <a href="#why-does-paraswap-dao-need-a-fee" id="why-does-paraswap-dao-need-a-fee"></a>

All fees collected by the Velora DAO are used to grow further and perpetuate the Velora Protocol. DAO members and proposals decide the specific initiatives, and it is up to governance and community participants to decide where to direct these fees.

## Fee Claimer <a href="#partners-fees-overview" id="partners-fees-overview"></a>

Partners can choose to have their Partner fees, including Swap Fees and Surplus, redirected to a Fee Claimer contract, from where they can be claimed at will or sent directly to their wallet of choice using the `isDirectFeeTransfer` parameter.

For those Partners who chose Fee Claimer, fees can be claimed through the Velora[ Fee Claimer UI](https://app.paraswap.xyz/#/fee_claimer), using the wallet passed on the API call as `partneraddress`. The complete list of Fee Claimer addresses can be found in the [Smart Contracts - Fee Claimer](https://developers.paraswap.network/smart-contracts#fee-claimer) section.

For more information about API parameters setup, please refer to the [Velora API Developers Documentation.](https://developers.paraswap.network/)
