FOMO fees explained
FOMO publishes a 0.50% swap fee. Signing up with a referral code applies a flat 10% discount, giving 0.45%. FOMO sets the discount at 10% for every valid code, so third-party pages that claim 25%, 50% or 100% off still produce the same 0.45% rate.
One detail most reviews miss: on Solana the percentage discount applies to orders of 190 USDC or more. Smaller Solana swaps are charged in flat fee bands. On Base, BNB Chain, Monad and Ethereum the discount applies from your first trade at any size.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Cheapest mobile app we track after pump.fun (0.45%).
- Six chains in one app, gasless swaps, Apple/Google/email sign-in.
- Self-custodial passkey wallet.
- Social feed: see what wallets you follow are buying.
Cons
- Small Solana swaps (under 190 USDC) do not get the percentage discount.
- The referral must be recorded at sign-up; fixing a missed referral needs support or a fresh account.
- Fewer pro terminal tools than Axiom or Terminal (Padre).
Why is our code called VIP50 if it gives 10%?
Because code names are just names. On FOMO the discount is fixed at 10% by the platform, and our job is to tell you that instead of pretending otherwise. Any page claiming a FOMO code gives "50% off" is wrong, including if the code is ours. See the full fake-code audit.
How to get 0.45% on FOMO
Open the FOMO referral link before creating your account
FOMO attaches the 10% fee discount (0.45% instead of 0.50%) at initial sign-up when you follow the invite link or enter code VIP50 on the registration screen.
Verify the 0.45% fee rate on your swap confirmation screen
Before confirming a swap of $190+ on Solana (or any size on Base/BSC/Monad), check the fee line on the order preview to confirm 0.45% is active.
