Fees & Rewards

Fees

Giza takes a 10% cut of yield earned — never your principal. Deposits, withdrawals, and rebalances are free.

Action	Fee
Deposit	Free
Withdrawal	Free
Gas (rebalancing)	Free — agent covers all gas after activation
Yield earned	10% performance fee
Principal	No fee ever

The 10% fee only applies to yield. Your deposited principal is never touched. The fee is deducted at withdrawal.

On Base, Giza guarantees a 15% minimum APR target through Giza Rewards:

If your Native APR from lending is below 15%, Giza makes up the difference
As Native APR rises toward 15%, the Giza Rewards portion drops toward 0%
Once Native APR passes 15%, Giza Rewards is 0% — your returns come entirely from protocol yields

Scenario	Native APR	Giza Rewards APR	Net APR (after 10% fee)
Low rates	5%	10%	~13.5%
Mid rates	10%	5%	~13.5%
High rates	15%+	0%	~13.5%+

The dashboard tooltip shows: Native APR + Giza Rewards APR - Fee = Net APR.

Reward tokens earned through protocol incentives include:

Giza Rewards APR is only available on Base. Other chains earn yield from protocol rates alone.
