# Fee Relayer

> Let your Squad cover transaction fees for members

The Fee Relayer lets your Squad cover transaction fees for all member actions, so individual members don't need SOL in their personal wallets.

<Info>
  Fee Relayer is available on the Pro plan.

## Who pays for what

| Action | Fee Relayer on | Fee Relayer off |
| - | - | - |
| Creating proposals | Squad treasury | Member wallet |
| Approving proposals | Squad treasury | Member wallet |
| Executing proposals | Squad treasury | Member wallet |
| ATA creation | Squad treasury | Squad treasury |
| Rent for transaction and proposal accounts | Squad treasury | Member wallet |

With Fee Relayer enabled, the Squad covers everything. With it disabled, members pay for creating, approving, and executing proposals from their own wallets, including the rent for the accounts a proposal creates.

The Fee Relayer only pays for members that sign with their own wallet. A member that connects through [SquadsX](/integrations/squadsx/overview) signs through the Squad behind SquadsX, so this Squad's Fee Relayer never pays for it. The fees are paid as for any SquadsX transaction: by that Squad's Fee Relayer if it has one enabled, otherwise by the SquadsX key (see [Fee configuration](/integrations/squadsx/get-started#fee-configuration)).

## Enable Fee Relayer

1. Navigate to **Settings** and open the **Other** tab
2. On the **Fee relayer** row, select **Enable Fee relayer**. Your wallet sends 0.06 SOL to fund the new relayer address
3. This creates a proposal that adds a 1 SOL per day spending limit from your Squads Vault to the relayer address. Members approve and execute it on the **Transactions** page
4. Once the proposal is executed, the Fee Relayer is active

After setup, turn the Fee Relayer off or on from the same row with **Disable Fee relayer** and **Enable Fee relayer**, or with the **Fee relayer** switch under **Modules** on the **Members** page.

The Fee Relayer automatically deactivates if your Pro subscription expires.

## Maintain the balance

The Fee Relayer pays fees from its own address, which is funded from your Squads Vault through its 1 SOL per day spending limit. When a refill is needed, a **Refill** button appears on the **Fee relayer** row in **Settings**. Keep enough SOL in your Squads Vault to cover refills. If the relayer has no SOL left, send SOL directly to the relayer address shown in **Settings**.

You can check the current Fee Relayer balance in the status bar at the bottom of the app on desktop. The relayer address and its spending limit usage are shown on the **Fee relayer** row in **Settings**.

## Disable for a single proposal

If Fee Relayer is enabled but you want to pay for a specific proposal from your personal wallet, open the proposal, select **Advanced**, and check **Fee Relayer** (Disable Fee Relayer for execution). See [Priority Fees](/app-guide/transactions/priority-fees) for details.
