Fees
Rafffle charges creators, not buyers. Buying tickets, bidding and spinning have no Rafffle fee; you only pay normal Solana network fees (and, for bids, a little rent).
At a glance

|---|---|---|---|
| Raffle | 5% of ticket sales | 2.5% | When you collect your proceeds |
| Holder-only raffle | + 1 SOL | + 0.5 SOL | When you create the raffle |
| Auction | 5% of the winning bid | 2.5% | When you settle the auction |

Fees are paid in the currency of the raffle, auction or gumball. The holder-only charges are in SOL.
If nothing sells, there is no fee: no fee on a raffle with no tickets sold, an auction with no bids or a gumball with no spins. The holder-only charge is not refunded.
Holder rate
You get the holder rate if, when you create, you have a fox from one of these collections staked or on a mission:
- Famous Fox Federation (FFF)
- Transdimensional Fox Federation (TFF)
- Friends & Foes
Some details:
- Holding a fox is not enough. It has to be staked or on a mission.
- For raffles and auctions, the fox has to be in the wallet you create from. For gumballs, a fox in a wallet linked to yours on chain also counts.
- The rate is fixed when you create. Unstaking later doesn't change it, and staking after you create doesn't lower it.
- The create page shows a holder badge when it finds a staked fox.
A staked fox also makes your raffles, auctions and gumballs eligible for Featured spots. See Featured.
Raffles
- 5% of the ticket money (2.5% at the holder rate) goes to Rafffle when you collect your proceeds. You get the rest.
- Holder-only mode costs 1 SOL (0.5 SOL at the holder rate), paid when you create the raffle. See Holder-only raffles.
- Rent: you pay Solana rent for the raffle's ticket list when you create it, about 2.2 SOL at the 10,000-ticket maximum and much less for small raffles. You get it back when you collect your proceeds, take back an unsold prize, or cancel. See Creating a raffle.
- Royalties: Rafffle doesn't pay NFT creator royalties out of ticket sales.
Auctions
- 5% of the winning bid (2.5% at the holder rate) goes to Rafffle when you settle.
- Royalties: paid from the winning bid after the Rafffle fee. For standard NFTs you choose how much of the creator royalty to pay. For pNFTs and Core NFTs the full royalty is paid.
- Rent: you pay a small amount of rent for the auction's accounts. You get it back if you cancel. Each bid also pays a small amount of rent to store it in the auction's history.
See Auctions.
Gumballs
- 5% of every spin (2.5% at the holder rate) goes to Rafffle as the spin happens. The proceeds you claim are already net of the fee.
- Holder-only mode costs 1 SOL (0.5 SOL at the holder rate), paid when you create the gumball.
- Buy back: 2% of each buy-back price, paid by you from your buy-back deposit. The winner gets the full buy-back price.
- Rent: paid when you create the gumball and returned when you close it.
- Royalties: not paid on gumball prizes.
