Uniswap fees
You pay no Uniswap Labs interface fee (since 2025-12-27). A swap costs the pool fee plus gas. The pool fee is 0.30% on v2, 0.01%/0.05%/0.30%/1% tiers on v3, and any creator-set fee on v4. A protocol fee carved out of LP fees is live on v2 and select v3 pools. On a $1,000 trade that you later sell, Uniswap's own fees come to about $0.00. Network (gas/priority) fees and pool fees are charged on top.

How DEX fees work: instead of a platform fee, each swap pays the fee of the pool it routes through (listed above where published). The interface itself may add its own fee.
Platform fees only. On-chain network/priority fees, pool (LP) fees and price impact are extra and vary by trade.
Fees DexSheet doesn't count
- Network fees: Solana base + priority fees, or gas on EVM chains. Usually cents on Solana, but priority tips during busy launches can be more.
- Pool (LP) fees: the DEX pool the trade routes through takes its own cut (for example Pump.fun's bonding curve charges 1.25%).
- Price impact and slippage: on thin memecoin pools this is often bigger than every fee combined.
