# The swap fee

# The swap fee

Every swap in the game's pool pays 10% to the game. The hook takes it during the swap.

A buy pays the fee in `$EXIT`. A sell pays it in NVDA: the treasury's half is kept in NVDA, and the rest is converted to `$EXIT` before it reaches the IPO Pool and xEXIT stakers. Conversion can wait while the pool is thin, so that part may arrive later.

## The split

|                   |     |                                      |
| ----------------- | --- | ------------------------------------ |
| **Treasury**      | 50% | the project's treasury wallet        |
| **IPO Pool**      | 35% | pays Office revenue                  |
| **xEXIT stakers** | 15% | shared by everyone with locked xEXIT |

The fee and its split are fixed in the contracts and can't be changed.

## It is not a transfer tax

Sending `$EXIT` to another wallet costs nothing. The fee is only charged on swaps in the game's pool.

## Not the same as the cash-out tax

The tax you pay when you cash out revenue is separate and works differently. See [Cash out](/mechanics/cash-out).
