# Costs of using Squads

How much does it cost to use Squads

### **Network fees**

{% hint style="info" %}
Network fees can vary slightly depending on the action performed inside a Squad. This happens due to differences in the weights of instructions, which require different spaces on the blockchain.
{% endhint %}

* **Withdrawing SPL tokens** - 0.0051 SOL
* **Withdrawing NFT** - 0.0104 SOL
* **Stake SOL with a liquid provider** - 0.0094 SOL
* **Stake SOL with a validator** - 0.0106 SOL
* **Add member** - 0.0037 SOL
* **Remove member** - 0.0044 SOL
* **Change threshold** - 0.0042 SOL
* **Create time lock** - 0.0069 SOL
* **Create a Spending limit** - 0.0076 SOL
* **Enable the fee relayer -** 0.0681 SOL

{% hint style="info" %}
Transactions executed with Squads have higher network fees than wallets like Phantom and Backpack because Squads uses [smart accounts](https://squads.so/blog/smart-account-basics-why-smart-accounts-will-power-the-onchain-economy) to enforce multisig logic. Smart accounts require more computation and storage than traditional non-programmable accounts. A portion of these fees are due to [network rent](https://solana.com/docs/core/fees#rent:~:text=the%20fees%20paid.-,Rent%20%23,-The%20fee%20deposited) (related to storage) which can be recouped using our [Rent Reclaim](https://docs.squads.so/main/navigating-your-squad/transactions#rent-reclaim) feature. All fees are charged by the Solana network; Squads does not charge fees on transactions except the [Limit Order](/main/navigating-your-squad/trade/limit-orders.md) fees shown below.
{% endhint %}

### **Platform fees**

**Squads Deployment Fee** - 0.1 SOL

**Limit Orders** - 0.25%

[**Squads Business Plan** ](/main/getting-started/pricing.md)(optional) - $49 per month

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.squads.so/main/additional-resources/costs-of-using-squads.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
