This article only applies to VCs and Investment syndicates, as projects do not charge an additional fee during a raise.

Fee Calculation Model

Spring uses a deductive fee structure for deal participation. Rather than adding fees on top of investments, they are subtracted from the investor’s total contribution amount. The formula is: Invested amount - Fee = Allocation This allocation determines token distribution to investors.

​
Example Walkthrough

With a 10% fee and $1 token price:
  • Investor contributes: $1,000
  • Fee calculation: 10% × 1,000=∗∗1,000 = **100**
  • Allocation: 1,000−1,000 - 100 = $900
  • Tokens received: 900÷900 ÷ 1 = 900 tokens
The defining factor for the number of tokens an investor receives is the allocation.

​
Fee Distribution

Fundraising fees and contributions are directed to the same Fundraising Wallet configured within each deal. Spring provides detailed tracking showing:
  • Total amount raised toward SAFT
  • Total fees charged
This enables managers to determine how much to send to the project per SAFT requirements.
