# How It Works?

Our platform is designed to make trading as simple as possible while maximizing efficiency. This is done in the following manner:

### Route Aggregation

We collect multiple potential routes from various liquidity sources and dex-es for the trade and provide you with the cheapest option (where you make the most amount of money) whilst ensuring stability of trades against high slippage.

### One-Click Execution

When you initiate a trade, our platform automatically manages any bridging, swaps or intermediary swaps that may be required through our integrated partner providing you a simple trading experience with one single confirmation for the entire trade.

### Trading Fees

We collect a trading fees of up to 0.7% (depending on your level and lifetime plus membership status) on all transactions. These fees help support the rewards program and the development of the platform.

### Network Fees a.k.a Gas

Network fees or also known as Gas fees are a core requirement of blockchain transactions. These fees are paid in the native token of each network:

1. ETH for Base.
2. SOL for Solana.

Network fees vary on network congestion and transaction complexity. All networks fees are displayed as part of the Advanced Details before executing your trade.
