Star does not take a percentage of your raised funds, and Star does not take a share of your token supply. Every dollar you raise reaches your treasury, and your full supply goes where you allocate it. This is deliberate: the raise exists to give you runway, and the supply exists to carry value for your holders.

Star earns from trading activity instead:

| Stage                    | Star's fee             |
| ------------------------ | ---------------------- |
| During the fundraise     | **1%** on each trade   |
| After a successful raise | **0.5%** on each trade |

Separately, **you earn 0.5% of each secondary trade** of your token after launch. That fee is yours, not Star's - see [Post-launch](/founders/post-launch#trading).

Star wins when your token trades, which happens when your project grows. There is no fee on failure: a round that does not close costs you nothing.
