Two fees on a send. Both published.
Nothing is taken out of the amount you type, there is no spread hidden in a conversion rate, and no charge is introduced later in the flow. Below is the full schedule, then the same arithmetic on a real amount.

Four rows. Two of them are zero.
| Charge | Rate | Applies | How it is set |
|---|---|---|---|
| Network fee | 0.00010000 BTC | Every send | A flat figure applied to each send, charged on top of the amount. It is a fixed number rather than a live quote read from the mempool, and this page says so instead of implying it tracks anything. |
| Platform fee | 1.00% | Every send | A percentage of the amount you send, charged on top of it rather than taken out of it. The recipient is credited the full amount you typed. This is the one line here that we keep. |
| Receiving | No charge | Never | Incoming movements are credited in full. Nothing is deducted from a payment arriving at your address. |
| Holding an account | No charge | Never | No monthly fee, no inactivity fee, no tier that changes either of the two figures above. |
Send 0.01 BTC, line by line.
The recipient is credited the amount you typed. The two fees are added to it, and the sum is what leaves your balance. The same figures are shown again on the review screen before you confirm.
| Line | BTC | USD (est.) |
|---|---|---|
| Amount to the recipient | 0.01000000 | $885 |
| Network fee (flat) | 0.00010000 | $9 |
| Platform fee (1.00%) | 0.00010000 | $9 |
| Deducted from your balance | 0.01020000 | $903 |
BTC is the authoritative figure. The USD column is an estimate converted at $88,540 per BTC — the configured reference rate, not a live market quote. Balances are held to 8 decimal places, so 0.01020000 BTC is 1,020,000 sats.
The network fee is a fixed figure, not an estimate
Sends between two accounts on this system are ledger movements — your balance falls, the recipient's rises, and both rows are written with the fee breakdown attached. Quoting a live figure from the mempool is a different product and it is not built here, so we publish the number we apply rather than dress it up as one that tracks the network.
The platform fee is the line we keep
1% of the amount, charged on top, shown before you confirm and recorded against the movement afterwards. Both figures are read from the same configuration the send endpoint uses, so if a deployment changes one, this page changes with it.
