# axiom fee tiers: the cashback and net fee at each tier

Axiom pays cashback in SOL against its own trading fee, from 0.05% at the lowest tier to 0.25% at the highest, which is why Axiom gives the net fee as 0.95% rather than 1%.

The cashback is not a promotion and it is not a points scheme. Axiom publishes it as a fee table, with a net rate per tier.

## the table

| Tier | Multiplier | Net fee | Cashback |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wood | 1X | 0.95% | 0.05% |
| Bronze | 2X | 0.90% | 0.10% |
| Silver | 2.5X | 0.875% | 0.125% |
| Gold | 3X | 0.85% | 0.15% |
| Platinum | 3.5X | 0.825% | 0.175% |
| Diamond | 4X | 0.80% | 0.20% |
| Champion | 5X | 0.75% | 0.25% |

On Axiom, your multiplier scales with your total volume. Cashback comes to you in SOL.

## what it is worth on a real fill

On a $1,000 buy, the headline 1% is $10.00.

| | Cashback | Fee after cashback |
|---|---|---|
| Wood, the tier you start on | $0.50 | $9.50 |
| Champion, the top tier | $2.50 | $7.50 |

So the whole tier ladder is worth $2.00 per $1,000 traded, bottom to top. That is real and it is also not the thing to organise your trading around. If you are choosing a terminal on cost, the gap between tiers here is smaller than one badly set priority fee.

What it does change is the headline. Axiom's floor is 0.95%, not 1%.

## cashback plus the referral discount

Axiom gives both the 10% referral discount and this cashback, but doesn't say how they combine. Check the cashback line on your own trades after a few fills.

Signing up through this link takes 10% off your Axiom trading fees, which signing up without one does not. We get a commission from Axiom, which helps support our work, at no extra cost to you.

## related questions

- **What does Axiom actually charge?** Platform fee starts at 1% of the fill, plus priority you set, plus impact. A referral is a fee cut on the account if the field shows the code. Gas is separate.
- **Axiom referral code, which one is real?** The official program is a 10% fee cut for you, attached at signup through a link. Pages that print a bigger discount are not citing Axiom docs.
- **Did the Axiom code attach?** Axiom attaches a referral when you sign up through a referral link, and offers no documented way to add one later or confirm it on screen.
