How gas fees work
Gas fees are small charges you pay every time you make a transaction on a blockchain – like sending tokens, swapping, or using a DApp. Think of it as a processing fee that keeps the network running.

How Bitget Wallet simplifies gas
Gas fees vary by network and can change depending on how busy the blockchain is. For example, fees on Ethereum tend to be higher than on Base or Solana.

Why is my gas fee higher than the token I am sending?
Gas fees depend on the network, transaction type, and current network congestion, not on the amount you are sending. Even a small transfer can incur a significant fee on busy networks. If you are using GetGas to pay the fee, additional swaps or network token conversions may add to the cost. Compare the fee against the asset value before confirming. If the fee is too high, wait for network congestion to ease, check whether you have available gas vouchers, or look for a lower-fee route.
