What is Pump.fun?
Pump.fun is a token launchpad on Solana. Creating a coin costs 0 SOL, trades on the bonding curve carry a 1.25% total fee, and a coin that graduates moves to a PumpSwap pool for a 0.015 SOL fee. Since 21 May 2026 creators can pair tokens with USDC instead of SOL.
How Pump.fun works
Anyone can create a coin on Pump.fun for 0 SOL, or 0 USDC for coins paired with USDC, an option added on May 21, 2026.
New coins trade on a bonding curve with a 1.25% fee: 0.30% to the creator, 0.95% to the protocol and nothing to liquidity. When a coin graduates, it moves to a canonical PumpSwap pool for a 0.015 SOL fee. After that, fees scale with market cap, from 1.25% below 420 SOL down to 0.30% above 98,240 SOL.
Creator fees apply to every coin that was on the bonding curve or PumpSwap from May 13, 2025. A creator can instead launch a Cashback Coin, where part or all of the creator fee goes back to eligible traders as Cashback Rewards. Non-canonical PumpSwap pools charge a flat 0.30%: 0.05% protocol and 0.25% to liquidity providers.

Pump.fun fees and limits
- Pump.fun's own web app, advanced view and mobile app add no fees beyond the published schedule, though some mobile users may pay up to 0.1% more on certain trades.
Other interfaces can add their own fees. Solana network gas and wallet fees are extra. The smart contracts set the actual charge, so the fee shown in the app may not match exactly, and Pump.fun can change fees without notice.
Risks to know before using Pump.fun
- Pump.fun describes itself as letting anyone create coins and warns that prices move fast.
- Coins paired with USDC or other supported assets depend on those issuers: if an issuer freezes the asset, curves and pools that use it can be frozen or unwound.
- The terms, updated September 25, 2026, are governed by British Virgin Islands law and require binding arbitration with a class action waiver.
- Perpetual positions can be liquidated automatically at prices set by Hyperliquid.
