Pool network fees

Orca does not charge fees to create a pool, nor to create a position in an existing pool. However, network and rent fees are payable and if the Match deposit ratio function is used trading fees and network fees will also be payable on that transaction. The table below outline the fees paid to create a new pool position in an existing pool. Some of these fees are refunded when the position is closed and the NFT burned. Users of the SDK can reduce position NFT related fees by using openPosition without Metadata - for detail liaise with a Developer Advocate in #❓│dev-questions.

When you create a new pool there will be additional fees to pay, as well as applicable fees from above. These fees will vary depending on the fee rate selected and the chosen Price range for initial deposit. The cost will be higher if more TickArrays need to be initialized. Tick size is proportional to fee rate, creation costs will be higher for a wider range on a lower fee rate pool. The UI will provide an estimate of fees which will typically range from 0.08-0.52SOL.
