Jupiter charges no fees

There are no protocol fees on Jupiter. The only fees are transaction fees and DEX/AMM fees which are factored in to the swap calculations. If you see more SOL deducted than what you expect, it is probably due to deposits for creating Associated Token Accounts.

Basic Swap User Flow​

1. First, navigate to the Jupiter Website. Double check that the URL in your search bar is correct: https://jup.ag/
2. Next, connect your wallet by clicking the Connect Wallet button at the top right corner of the site.
3. Select the tokens that you want to swap from and into with the token selectors.
4. Enter the input amount of the selected token that you want to swap from.
5. Review the swap route and output token amounts. Checkout the full list of supported DEXes for routing here.
6. Configure additional parameters to help with your trade, including: Priority Fees, Slippage Settings, and Swap Settings.
7. After you have confirmed all the parameters and inputs, click on the ‘Swap’ button, and you will be prompted with a confirmation from your wallet. If you ‘Confirm’, your swap will be sent to the blockchain, to be finalized.

Let’s go through Jupiter Settings in greater detail below.

Jupiter Settings​

1. Jupiter Swap: Jupiter Swap tab (the current tab you are in) where you can instantly spot swap for any supported SPL token.
2. Jupiter Limit Order: Jupiter Limit Order tab where you can place limit orders at a specific price and receive tokens directly in their wallet if the order is triggered and filled.
3. Global Priority Fee: Transaction Priority Fees is a Solana feature that allows users to bid for priority for their transactions in the leader’s queue.
4. Jupiter Global Settings: Select your default settings like language, Solana explorer and RPC endpoint.
5. Connect Wallet: Connect to your preferred wallet to interact with Jupiter.
6. Refresh Quote: Refresh quote button to update the latest quote for the configured asset swap in the terminal.
7. Slippage Settings: Slippage settings configure your acceptable threshold for price change between when you submit a transaction and it executes.
8. Swap Settings: These settings will directly impact the routing and pricing of the swaps being performed. Typically, default settings works for beginners.

Global Settings​

The RPC Endpoint Selector now displays active end-point latency

Due to network traffic loads RPC endpoints can get overloaded, which can lead to latency issues that will directly impact your trade executions. Reviewing the RPC latency and selecting the lowest latency option is a best practice to ensure the fastest trade execution.

1. Language: Pick your preferred language from English, Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese, Indonesian, and Korean.
2. Preferred Explorer: Pick your preferred explorer from Solscan, SolanaFM, Solana Beach, Solana Explorer, XRAY, and OKLink.
3. RPC Endpoint: Pick your preferred public RPC endpoint from Triton RPC, Helius RPC, or use your own custom RPC endpoint.

Transaction Priority Fees​

Transaction Priority Fees

Trades submitted to the blockchain are assigned a priority based on the fee bidding process. The higher the priority fee, the higher your transactions will be in the execution queue. During times of congestion, increasing your priority fee can help. Use with caution and remember to re-adjust the fee selection afterwards.

1. Transaction Broadcasting Selector: Select your transaction broadcasting option. Choose from submitting to RPCs with priority fee, sending your transaction directly to Jito Validators via a bundle, or an Mixed, which fires both and see which lands first.
2. Priority Level: Specify the Priority Level, in increasing priority: Fast, Turbo, Ultra for the transactions you are executing.
3. Fee Mode: Pick your preferred Fee Mode. Either specify a Max Cap for your fee or an Exact Fee for your transactions.

Slippage Settings​

Slippage Settings

Utilizing the Slippage Setting to ensure your transactions are executed is a common practice. The slippage setting is important to prevent users from getting poor swap rates on transactions if the asset price falls below the specified slippage rate.

danger

This is an advanced setting and should be used with caution.

1. Mode: Select the slippage mode you want to utilize. Dynamic mode optimises slippage between success rate, and sandwich protection through a series of simulations. Auto slippage will utilize Jupiters internal slippage calculations for the best setting. Fixed will adhere to your specificed slippage amount.
2. Slippage: Enter the maximum acceptable slippage rate for your swaps.

Swap Settings​

1. Direct Route Only: Using Direct Route Only ensures that the transaction will only be submitted to a single pool. This will limit a lot of intermediate tokens and filter out a lot of other viable routes that use intermediary tokens.
2. Use wSOL: Using Wrapped SOL (wSOL) makes using Jupiter faster and more convenient for traders who trade frequently with SOL, since it avoids having to wrap/unwrap SOL.
3. Versioned Transaction: Enabling Versioned Transaction improves composability so Jupiter will be able to fit in more routes and get even better pricing all in a single transaction.
