Cactus Fees

Why does Cactus charge a fee?

Cactus offers a wide range of product features for DAOs to power protocols, manage treasuries, distribute public goods, and more:

  • Create, vote, & execute proposals
  • Manage & diversify treasuries with trustless, MEV-protected tokenswaps
  • Elect onchain security councils to manage multisigs & grants programs
  • Launch a DAO seamlessly with custom token claim flows, delegation discovery, & community building tools

The 0.25% fee on proposal transfers creates revenue to enable Cactus to continue to innovate & support the DAO ecosystem in the future. Fee revenue supports operational costs, maintenance, & product development as Cactus maintains its commitment to the decentralized organizations.

&#xNAN;DAOs that have existing agreements with Cactus are excluded.

How does the fee work?

Once a proposal is passed & executed onchain by the DAO, the 0.25% fee is automatically applied to the final transfer amount & sent to a Safe deployed on the respective chain . The fee amount is denominated in the transfer’s native token amount. The USD value is also shown for convenience.
