About

What is Jupiter?

Jupiter is a Solana DEX aggregator that routes swaps across on-chain AMMs and its JupiterZ RFQ market makers. The site also offers perps up to 250x, lending and DCA. The platform fee on swaps ranges from 0 bps on pegged pairs to 10 bps on most pairs and 50 bps on tokens under 24 hours old.

How Jupiter works

Swaps on jup.ag run in Ultra Mode by default.

Its Juno liquidity engine compares routes across Solana AMMs, third-party sources such as DFlow, Hashflow and OKX, and Jupiter's own routers, Metis and JupiterZ, and it learns to sideline low-quality sources over time. Quotes refresh every second. Beam, Jupiter's transaction landing engine, submits the trade privately for MEV resistance, and the Real-Time Slippage Estimator sets slippage per trade from token type, recent volatility, pool depth and network congestion.

Manual Mode lets you set your own slippage and choose Jito broadcasting, but it has no MEV protection. If your wallet lacks SOL for fees, Ultra can make the trade gasless: a relayer pays the SOL and recovers the same value from your output. Swaps filled by JupiterZ market makers have gas covered by the market maker. Limit and DCA orders run as separate products with their own fees.

How to start with Jupiter

  1. Every action on jup.ag needs a connected account.
  2. You can use a Solana wallet such as Jupiter Wallet, Phantom, Solflare, Ledger or any WalletConnect app, or create a Jupiter ID with email, Google or Apple, which sets up an embedded wallet without a seed phrase whose key you can export.
  3. To fund it, Jupiter's card purchase flow runs through Onramper and processors such as Stripe, Banxa and Topper, sells SOL or USDC, and charges no Jupiter fee; the processor may require KYC.
  4. US users should read the Terms of Use first.
  5. They list the United States among Prohibited Localities and say Jupiter does not interact with wallets located in or resident of the US, along with places such as Singapore, Cuba, Iran and North Korea.
  6. Hiding your IP address to get around this is also prohibited.
  7. The terms also reserve the right to limit access for any person or region at Jupiter's discretion.

Jupiter fees and limits

  • Ultra Mode charges a Jupiter commission of 0 to 0.5% depending on the pair and its volatility, with stable pairs at the low end and new tokens at the high end.
  • Limit orders V1 and DCA V1 cost a flat 0.1%; the V2 versions charge a 0.03 to 0.1% base plus the Ultra routing fee.

Manual Mode market swaps carry no Jupiter commission. You also pay Solana network fees, and a Jito tip if you pick Jito broadcasting. Gasless trades add the SOL gas value to the swap fee with no markup.

Risks to know before using Jupiter

  • Jupiter publishes its audits on its security page: Swap v3 by Sec3 (August 2022) and Swap v6 by Offside Labs (April 2024 and October 2025), and Perpetuals by Offside Labs, OtterSec and Sec3.
  • The docs say MEV protection in Ultra reduces sandwich risk but cannot remove it, and gasless trades can cost up to 10% of a small trade at the eligibility limit.
  • Token risk is the bigger issue for most users.
  • Spot lists tokens as soon as they trade on-chain, including unverified tokens and tokens still on a bonding curve, and anyone can create a token with any ticker, so the docs tell you to check the contract address before trading.
  • Jupiter's verification, ranking and fake-token filters reduce this risk, but the docs say they do not remove it.
