Per-Account Deployment Fee

When you deploy a new Safe for a user, your neobank pays a deployment fee that covers:
  • RPC costs for the deployment transaction
  • Gnosis Safe contract creation gas
  • Initial configuration (module setup, guard installation)
Deployment fee amounts will be published upon the launch of the neobank program. Fees are accumulated off-chain and settled periodically.

Revenue Model

Blend earns revenue through a performance fee on returns generated by strategies. This revenue is shared with integration partners based on TVL contribution. Details on the revenue sharing model will be published with the neobank program launch.

Risk Architect Fees (For Reference)
