Your app can earn revenue by keeping a share of the yield generated by its users’ deposits. This share is a performance fee: users keep the rest of the yield and all principal, and can withdraw at any time. An admin wallet your app controls receives the fees. The fee is set when the vault is configured, and how it is capped, split, and distributed depends on the vault provider.

​
Configure the fee

The performance fee is set at vault setup, not per deposit. For self-serve Morpho and Aave vaults, choose the fee percentage when you create the vault in the Privy Dashboard. For other Aave and Veda vaults, the fee is set when Privy enables the vault for your app. See setup to get started. Every vault has an admin wallet, which is a wallet your app controls that receives the fees.

​
Fee limits by provider

Enabling other Aave or Veda vaults, or raising a Morpho fee above the self-serve cap, is handled by Privy. Contact [email protected] to set these up.

​
How fees are distributed

Fees reach your admin wallet differently depending on the provider.
  • Morpho: fees accrue as vault shares directly in the admin wallet. Redeem the underlying asset any time with the withdraw endpoint. No separate collection step is required.
  • Aave: fees accumulate in the vault contract. Read the collectable amount from available_fees on get vault details, then move it to the admin wallet with the collect fees endpoint.
  • Veda: Veda claims accrued fees and withdraws them to your admin wallet on a recurring schedule, per your agreement with Veda. No action is required from your app.
