# Trading bot fees

Successful transactions through the Definest CopyTrading Bot (manually or automatically) will be charged a 1% tax on every buy & sell. Simple transfers are NOT taxed.

## Fee Extraction Mechanism <a href="#fee-extraction-mechanism" id="fee-extraction-mechanism"></a>

### Solana

Fees will be directly extracted in the same transaction.

### Other Chains

The bot will NOT take the 1% directly from each transaction. It simply accumulates how much you owe us, and doesn't extract any fees until you accumulate more than 0.01 ETH in unpaid fees.&#x20;

The fees accumulate per **Definest** account, **NOT** per wallet, and the bot will always extract the fee from the wallet with the **highest balance** in the concerned chain. The bot will deal with this silently, and you can always verify your trading volume by checking your block explorer.
