# What are the fees for swapping digital assets in RockWallet?
## Understand how RockWallet swap fees and network costs work.
When you **swap one digital asset for another** in RockWallet, small fees are applied to cover **blockchain network (mining) costs** and **transaction processing**. These fees help ensure your swap is securely verified and completed on the blockchain.
Here’s what to know:
- **Mining fees** are automatically applied when sending and receiving cryptocurrency during a swap.
- **Fees vary** depending on the digital assets being swapped and current **network congestion**.
- You’ll always see the **exact fee amount** on the **confirmation screen** before finalizing your swap.
For all swaps, network fees are **charged in the asset being swapped**.
Since all **ERC-20 tokens** (such as **ETH, SHIB, MNEE (ERC-20), USDC, and USDT**) are issued on the Ethereum blockchain, you’ll need a small ETH balance in your RockWallet to cover these fees.
**Tip:** Because network fees fluctuate with demand, keeping **$5–$15 worth of ETH** in your wallet is a good rule of thumb for smooth transactions.
