Profit-Based Fees

Definition

Profit-Based Fees are charges levied on financial transactions or services that are directly calculated as a percentage or share of the gains realized by the user. These fees incentivize service providers to optimize for user profitability, aligning their interests with those of their clients. In decentralized finance, such fee structures can be applied to yield farming protocols, trading bots, or asset management platforms. They represent a performance-driven compensation model.
