What it is
Jupiter started as the router that finds the best price across every Solana DEX. Today it is a full suite: swaps, limit orders and recurring buys, perps, lending, a liquid staking token, a stablecoin, prediction markets and a mobile wallet.
What you can do
How to get started
- Open jup.ag and connect a Solana wallet.
- Pick what you sell and buy. For new tokens, paste the mint address.
- Check the route and price impact, then swap.
- Stake JUP and vote in DAO proposals if you want staking rewards.
Fees
Swaps on jup.ag carry a small platform fee on some routes; perps charge 0.06% to open and close plus an hourly borrow fee.
Risks to know
- Perps and Multiply use leverage and can liquidate.
- Lend and JLP carry smart contract and market risk.
- Copycat tokens: always check the mint address.
- Smart contracts can have bugs. Only deposit what you can afford to lose, and check you're on jup.ag before connecting.
