# How it works

#### Revenue Sharing Model

Partners earn a percentage of the taker fees generated from trades routed to Yamata’s liquidity. Fee rebates are calculated at trade settlement, ensuring instant payouts to partners.

#### Volume-Based Tiers

Your earnings are determined by a 30-day rolling trading volume, updated daily. The more volume you drive, the higher your revenue share.

| Tier | 30-Day Trading Volume | Fee Split (Partner) | Fee Split (Yamata) |
| ---- | --------------------- | ------------------- | ------------------ |
| 1    | <$5M                  | 50%                 | 50%                |
| 2    | $5M - $20M            | 58%                 | 42%                |
| 3    | >$20M                 | 65%                 | 35%                |

#### Example Calculation

If a Tier 2 partner routes $10M in trading volume over 30 days and the average taker fee is 0.10%, total fees collected would be $10,000. The partner's share at 58% would be $5,800, paid out instantly at trade settlement.
