# Fees

We charge gas fees and fixed fees.&#x20;

### [Gas fees](/layerakira-documentation/integration/trading/fees.md)

Gas fees are required to cover the costs of executing actions on-chain.

On the LayerAkira DEX, the token used to pay gas fees depends on whether the user sets an amount in the "spend" or "receive" field:

* If the user specifies an amount in the **spend field**, gas will be paid in the **receive currency**.
* If the user specifies an amount in the **receive field**, gas will be paid in the **spend currency**.

This dynamic approach ensures flexibility based on the user's input preferences.

### [Fixed fees](/layerakira-documentation/integration/trading/fees.md)

Our exchange charges a fee of 0.1% on all swaps. This fee allows us to continue providing you with the best trading experience on LayerAkira.&#x20;

The nominal amount can be viewed directly in the simple swap information panel, when a swap is initiated&#x20;
