# Fees

## Deposit / Withdraw Fees

Omni charges a flat fee of $0.1 per deposit/withdraw to disincentivize spam and cover gas costs.

## Trading Fees

There are no trading fees on Omni.

## Liquidation Fees

As a penalty for liquidations, Omni force-liquidates positions at ask price + 0.5% (for a short) or bid price - 0.5% (for a long). See the [Liquidation](/omni/trading/liquidation.md) page for more details on the liquidation penalty.

## FAQ

<details>

<summary>How are you able to offer zero trading fees?</summary>

Omni generates revenue by capturing the spread, not by charging users fees. See the [Omni Liquidity Provider](/omni/the-omni-liquidity-provider-olp.md#how-do-olp-and-the-variational-protocol-make-money) page for more information.

<summary>If there are no trading fees how does the protocol make money?</summary>

The Variational Protocol will receive a cut of Omni's spread revenue, rather than a cut of fees. See the [Omni Liquidity Provider](/omni/the-omni-liquidity-provider-olp.md#how-do-olp-and-the-variational-protocol-make-money) page for more information.
