Fees, exactly

Creator fees versus trading fees, our 10% share and how splits work.

Three different things

pump.fun charges trading fees on every trade, split between the protocol, liquidity and the coin creator. Those rates are set by pump.fun and can change; they are not UnicornSI's numbers.

The creator fee is the part that goes to the coin creator. That is the only money UnicornSI policies ever apply to.

Your fee policy

When you launch, you choose how creator fees received by the project are split: SI budget, you, the project treasury, community rewards and buybacks. Presets: Builder First (60/15/15, 10% platform), Balanced (35/30/25, 10%), Community First (30/15/20/25, 10%) or Custom.

UnicornSI's share is a fixed 10% of creator fees received. It is shown before you sign. Nothing is taken from buyers or sellers, and projected fees are never counted as spendable money.

pump.fun fee sharing is different

pump.fun's own fee sharing lets a coin pay creator fees to up to 10 fixed recipients whose shares add up to exactly 100%. Setting the final list revokes the admin, so it cannot be edited again. UnicornSI will show this as irreversible before you sign it and will never present its own changeable policy as pump.fun's fee sharing.

Without fee sharing, creator fees accrue to your creator wallet and you claim them from the Treasury tab. To set up fee sharing, use the Treasury tab: you choose the recipients, review an irreversibility screen, and sign. After that, anyone can trigger a distribution once pump.fun's minimum amount has accrued.

Holder-rewards coins

A holder-rewards coin sends the creator fee to holders instead of the creator. There is then nothing to claim and nothing to split. On the free AI tier the SI still works; with a paid AI model its budget must come from funds you add. This choice is permanent.

Claiming

For standard coins, the Treasury tab reads unclaimed creator fees live from pump.fun's bonding-curve and PumpSwap vaults and lets the creator wallet claim them with one signed transaction.
