# Fee

HyBridge charges a standard fee of **0.075%** for bridging transactions. However, there may be slight variations in the fee depending on the specific route selected for your transaction. HyBridge carefully balances the optimal trade-off between bridging speed and the best available quote, ensuring that you receive the most efficient and cost-effective service for your asset transfers.

### Note For New Users

When you first transfer USDC to Hyperliquid, please note that the platform will deduct a fee of **1 USDC**. This fee is applied because the recipient has not yet deposited on Hyperliquid.

Moreover, although this does not pertain directly to the bridge, please be aware that when you make a withdrawal from Hyperliquid, no Arbitrum ETH is required from you. However, a withdrawal fee of 1 USDC will be charged on the L1 to cover the Arbitrum gas costs for the validators.

These fees are essential to ensure smooth and efficient transactions on the Hyperliquid platform.\ <br>
