MicroLamports Avg Priority Fee
core concepts
Why Priority Fees Matter
Fee Calculation
Priority fees use the formula: ceil(compute_unit_price × compute_unit_limit / 1,000,000) lamports, giving you precise control over transaction speed.
Compute Unit Price
The compute unit price in microLamports per CU is the key variable that determines your transaction's position in the validator's execution queue.
Real-Time Tracker
Monitor live Solana mainnet priority fee percentiles to set optimal fees without overpaying during normal conditions.
Fee Calculator
Calculate exact priority fee costs before sending transactions—balance speed and cost with accurate lamport estimates.
Priority Fee API
Use the Helius or QuickNode Priority Fee API for dynamic, real-time fee estimates tailored to your specific transaction accounts.
Best Practices
Always set a compute unit limit, use dynamic fee estimation, and implement retry logic with fee escalation for reliable transaction landing.

Key Fee Concepts
Priority Fees Boost Speed
Setting a compute unit price above the median ensures validators prioritize your transaction during high network activity.

Dynamic Fees Are Essential
Hardcoding fees is a mistake. Dynamic fee estimation using getRecentPrioritizationFees ensures you always pay the right amount.

CU Limits Save SOL
Always simulate your transaction first and set the compute unit limit accurately. Overpaying for unused CUs reduces your effective priority.

Retry Logic Is Non-Negotiable
Implementing fee escalation on retries dramatically improves transaction landing rates during congestion without wasting SOL.
