# Fees

ETH Saver uses a performance-based fee model. \
\
There are no service fees of any kind charged when entering any of the available positions, but there is a performance fee taken when exiting the position(s).

{% hint style="info" %}
*The performance fee works as a percentage charge on the amount earned on top of your deposited capital and is currently at 10% across all positions available at ETH Saver.*
{% endhint %}

This fee is only taken when the position has actually yielded a positive profit. We also suggest checking out our article that explains [profit calculation at ETH Saver](https://help.defisaver.com/en/eth-saver/how-does-profit-tracking-work) in great detail.

## Are there any costs that are not immediately noticable?

Depending on your position, there might be other costs you want to take into account:<br>

* When opening a position based on rETH or cbETH, you might experience some trade size impact, because the conversion from ETH is done with a market (DEX) swap - unlike with wstETH where it is done directly through Lido. \
  \
  This is more prominent the larger the position and the higher the leverage level is.<br>
* The same applies when closing any position, including ones based on wstETH: a loss might be possible because the conversion back to ETH is done directly on the market.\
  \
  For larger positions, you might be able to decrease this by slowly deleveraging your position over a period of time: executing a Repay with an amount adjusted for minimal slippage, waiting a bit until the market adjusts again, repeating the process if needed, and finally closing the position. \

  Feel free to reach out via Discord or the help pop-up on the bottom right for assistance.<br>
* The above is also applicable when executing any other actions that include a swap, such as leveraging (Boost/Repay) or keep ratio actions (Supply & Leverage/Deleverage & Withdraw).<br>
* ETH market price fluctuation can also affect your bottom line. Profit is denominated in ETH, and the USD value is an estimate based on the current market price.
