# Fees and Rewards {% hint style="info" %} Fees on [V1 here](https://stream.ajirapay.finance) paused until further notice. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} We do not charge any protocol fees on [V2 here](https://app.ajirapay.finance) {% endhint %} In V1 of the linear token streaming and token vesting solutions of the Ajira Pay Finance platform, the architecture is such that when creating a stream or a token vesting schedule, there is a 0.5% fee charged on the amount of the asset that is deposited. This fee attracts an equal amount of $AJP token in rewards, as an example, Bob wants to stream to Alice 500 USDt over some specified duration, the fee is calculated as follows: $$ protocol fee = deposit \* percentage / PRECISION $$ Where: `deposit = amount of asset in this case USDt,` `percentage = a configurable value between 0 to 120 currently at 50 (0.5 %)` `PRECISION = a constant value set to 10000 to help in decimal calculations` With this we have: ``` fee = 500 * 50 / 10000 = 2.5 USDt ``` Therefore, the total stream amount in USDt that will reach Alice is as follows: $$ amount = deposit - fee $$ ``` 500 - 2.5 = 497.5 USDt ``` The fee is channeled to the protocol treasury to help the team in the following areas: * Platform maintenance and improvements including payments for RPCs. * Marketing. * Paying our devs and team. * Community programs * Crypto Taxation for local jurisdictions where Ajira Pay Finance is registered From the above calculation, upon creating a successful stream, Bob will secure 2.5 reward tokens in $AJP of which, 10 % of this is sent to him instantly while the rest is subjected to a linear stream for a maximum duration of 6 months to control $AJP inflation. The same applies for the case of token vesting. {% hint style="info" %} The percentage of fee charged is meant to cushion the protocol and support further growth activities and platform improvements. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} The total linear stream duration for the rewards is subject to change as shall be deemed fit by the community with relation to $AJP circulating supply after launch. {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
