# Bot Fees

QLix bots aim to provide fast, affordable crypto management tools. Currently, fees are only charged for cross-chain bridging operations. All other actions - cross-chain swaps, wallet consolidation (Qombinator), and SOL recovery (ReQlaim Bot), are free of charge at this time.

### Cross-Chain Bridge Fees

Cross-chain bridge transactions are subject to a small service fee, based on your QLIX token holdings. The more QLIX you hold, the lower your fees:

* **Tier 1 (Non-holder)** - 0.8% transaction fee
* **Tier 2 (500+ QLIX)** - 0.4% transaction fee
* **Tier 3 (5,000+ QLIX)** - 0% transaction fee

To verify your tier, use the Verify command in the QLix Bot menu or call the /verify command. It will then ask you to send a $0 transaction to an address in order to verify your QLIX holding.

### No Fees for Other Features

Currently, there are **no service fees** for using the following features:

* **Cross-Chain Swap** - Swap tokens between networks with no additional platform fees.
* **Qombinator** - Consolidate wallets at no cost.
* **ReQlaim Bot** - Scan and recover locked SOL for free.

Standard network gas fees (blockchain transaction fees) still apply, but QLix does not charge any extra fees for these services.

### Bot Fee Usage

All fees generated through QLix bots, including cross-chain bridge service fees, are used exclusively for **buyback and burn operations** of the QLIX token.

This means collected fees are used to purchase QLIX tokens from the open market, and those tokens are permanently removed from circulation.
