Journey

From gas unit calculations to EIP-1559 mechanics, this site covers every aspect of MATIC transfer fees on Polygon.

01 Understand Gas

What Is a Gas Fee on Polygon?

Gas fees compensate validators for processing transactions. On Polygon, fees are paid in MATIC and are a fraction of a cent for basic transfers.

02 Calculate Cost

Using the Gas Fee Formula

Fee = Gas Units × Gas Price × 0.000000001 MATIC. For a 21,000-unit transfer at 100 gwei, the cost is 0.0021 MATIC.

03 Optimize

Keeping Your Fees as Low as Possible

Transact during off-peak hours and set a custom gas price just above the base fee to minimize costs.
