# Fee & Limit

### Fees

At SurfLayer, we focus on enhancing the user experience during the platform’s early growth phase. To lower barriers for new users and encourage adoption, SurfLayer does not charge any platform bridge fees at this stage.

Users are only required to pay the Destination Transaction Fee — a prepaid fee collected upfront to cover the cost of delivering assets to the selected destination chain. There are no hidden charges, and the exact amount is always displayed in the SurfLayer dApp interface before transaction confirmation.

#### Example Scenario

Case: Sending 1 ETH from Arbitrum → Base

| Parameter        | Value      |
| ---------------- | ---------- |
| Destination Fee  | 0.0015 ETH |
| Total Sent       | 1.0015 ETH |
| Received on Base | 1 ETH      |

In this example, the user sends 1.0015 ETH from Arbitrum, where 0.0015 ETH is used to cover the destination transaction fee, and the full 1 ETH is received on the Base network.

#### Key Advantages

* Zero Platform Fees → No bridge fees during the early adoption phase
* Transparent Pricing → All fees are clearly displayed upfront within the dApp
* Simple & Predictable → Users know exactly how much they send and how much they will receive
* Optimized User Experience → Reduces friction for new and experienced Web3 users

## Transaction Limits

To protect users and minimize potential risks, SurfLayer enforces a transaction limit of $100 USD (token value) per bridge transaction during the platform’s initial phase.

This limit serves as an additional security measure to help users reduce potential losses in case of unexpected issues or malicious activities.

SurfLayer reserves the right to adjust or remove these limits in the future as the platform evolves and security measures are further enhanced.
