Fees
Last updated 2026-09-24
Transparent pricing: you only pay when SOL is actually returned to your wallet.
Current protocol fee
The protocol fee is 15% of the rent returned by the accounts you close. It is paid in the same transaction as a single SOL transfer, visible in your wallet preview.
Worked example
Closing 100 standard empty accounts returns about 0.1488 SOL. With a 15% fee, about 0.0223 SOL goes to the protocol and about 0.1265 SOL stays in your wallet, minus a tiny network fee.
Network fees
Solana charges a base fee of 0.000005 SOL per signature plus a small priority fee to help transactions land quickly. These go to the network, not to RecycleTokens.
Doing it yourself
You can always close accounts without any protocol fee using the Solana CLI. Our CLI guide explains how.
Check your wallet for locked SOL
Scan any Solana address for empty token accounts and see exactly how much rent you can reclaim. Free to check, non-custodial to close.
