TRON Fees

TRON transactions consumeĀ Bandwidth Points, TRX, and Energy Points in any combination, though not Energy Points alone.

The fees are calculated based on the size of the transaction in bytes and the number of opcodes that are performed by a contract.

Points are consumed depending on the operation:

  • Bandwidth Points: Are used (in Fordefi) for transactions such as transferring TRX or TRC-20 tokens. Bandwidth is consumed based on the size of the transaction in bytes. Over the course of a single day, every wallet address is rewarded with 600 free daily bandwidth points. If a vault does not have enough bandwidth, TRX will be burned for bandwidth points.
  • Energy Points: Are used forĀ token operations. Every token operation involves opcodes that consume energy, for example: transferring a token. If the sender does not have enough energy, TRX will be burned for energy points.

Note that:

  • When transferring funds to a new account, a one-time activation fee of 1 TRX is charged automatically to the sender's balance. In Fordefi, you will see this fee as part of the transaction's overall fee.
  • Each time the sender attaches a memo to a transaction, a fee of 1 TRX is charged automatically from their balance.
