A fee page is easier to understand when you stop asking “Is it free?” and ask “Which step costs money?” A single journey can involve an exchange, a blockchain, a funding rail, a payment provider, and a receiving bank. The Jupiter Global guides directory keeps the narrower card, funding, payout, and incident guides available when the complete route needs a second check.
You don’t need to memorize every fee, just a repeatable way to spot the ones that apply to your route.
Start with the residence and feature checker, then use the Route Finder to state whether you need Card spending, QR Pay, bank funding, a payout, or crypto funding.
Why the zero-fee headline isn’t the full price
Jupiter Global’s marketing page has described free international transfers, while the more detailed Spend documentation lists bank pay-in and payout charges. This guide follows the detailed documentation, and the final in-app quote is the number that counts. Marketing page · Detailed fee schedule
This does not establish what your account will pay. It is a reason not to treat an attractive headline as the complete price. Pricing, availability, and partner terms can change between reading a guide and authorizing a payment.
Card spending is one fee category
The detailed schedule lists no annual card fee and a non-USD foreign-exchange charge of 1% with Rain or 1.8% with DCS. It also lists a $13.13 physical-card fee plus shipping, with a tracked-shipping discount for an available balance of at least $1,500. These values can change, so check them again before you order or pay. Card fee table
For a purchase, check the currency the merchant is actually charging, the issuer associated with your account, and any merchant-side conversion or surcharge. Use the amount shown at confirmation as the final check.
Funding can introduce a different cost
A product saying that it does not add a crypto deposit fee does not mean your exchange or network charges nothing. Read the withdrawal screen at the sending service as well as the receiving instructions. The number debited and the number credited may differ. If you use a Jupiter Mobile route, Gasless Send can deduct a network cost in USDC even though you may not supply the network token separately. Crypto funding fees
If you use Send → Send to Spend from a Jupiter Mobile wallet with another token, the current table lists a 0.1% or 0.2% swap fee depending on the token, plus a small SOL network fee. A direct USDC or USDT deposit has a current network-specific minimum and processing fee: $3 on Solana, Base, Arbitrum and Sui, $10 on Ethereum, no processing fee on Solana, and the higher of $0.30 or 0.02% plus network gas on the other listed networks. The live receiving screen remains authoritative. Current funding fees
Bank funding is a separate rail. The fee schedule includes fixed and percentage components for incoming transfers. It also warns that an amount too small to cover a bank deposit’s fees may not be credited or refunded. Do not assume that the smallest possible payment is a harmless test. Pay-in rules
The asset you fund with also affects where the money can go. Jupiter’s current fee documentation says only USDC deposits can be withdrawn to fiat; USDT deposits cannot. A deposit with no Jupiter fee therefore does not prove that the same balance can reach a bank account. If the intended result is a fiat payout, confirm the withdrawal asset, destination currency, and available route before sending. USDC bank-withdrawal guide
QR Pay is another distinct fee path: the current table lists no fee for the payer or recipient, including FX conversion, but the route still has issuer, market, limit and availability gates. A zero QR fee does not make it interchangeable with a card purchase or bank payout. QR Pay fee and limit table
Outgoing transfers have their own schedule
As an example of how the published table is structured, PHP and VND local bank payouts are listed at a fixed $2.50 plus 0.45%. This is a payout fee example only. It does not include every possible cost of acquiring the funds, getting them into Spend, or receiving them at the destination. Payout table
For a hypothetical $1,000 fee basis, that particular formula produces $7: $2.50 plus $4.50. The arithmetic is straightforward; deciding whether $1,000 is the correct fee basis for your transaction requires reading the actual quote. Do not silently replace an in-app delivered amount with a hand-calculated one.
For a recipient-first check, compare the Canada CAD payout route or the PHP and VND corridor examples after writing down the same source debit and final usable amount.
The comparison that matters
Write down the total source-currency debit for each provider. Then write down the recipient’s final usable amount in one common destination currency. If the budgets are different, divide the recipient amount by the total debit to get a comparable effective rate.
For example, a fictional route charging 500 source units and delivering 28,000 destination units has an effective rate of 56. Another delivering 27,700 for the same debit has an effective rate of 55.4. Those are teaching numbers, not exchange rates or claims about any provider.
Timing and reliability still matter. A slightly better quoted amount is not a sensible trade if the route cannot meet your recipient’s deadline or leaves them holding an asset they cannot use.
Keep the receipt and the assumptions together
The Quote Compare tool accepts your own figures, keeps the work on your device, and makes the calculation visible. Recheck a quote if the amount, recipient, funding source, or time changes. For a fixed-fee versus percentage-fee crossover, use the fee break-even calculator before comparing providers.
Before confirming, ask one final question: “Is there any remaining step before the recipient can use this money?” If the answer is yes, price that step too.
Jupiter Global fees FAQ
Is Jupiter Global free?
There is no single all-in “free” answer. Card FX, crypto-network costs, bank pay-in fees, payout fees, conversion and receiving-bank charges can apply at different steps. Use the detailed fee schedule and the live quote for the route you actually need.
What does the Jupiter Card charge for foreign-currency spending?
The current documentation lists a 1% non-USD FX fee for Rain and 1.8% for DCS, with no annual card fee in that table. The issuer shown in the account, merchant currency and final confirmation control the real transaction.
Are crypto deposits fee-free?
Jupiter does not add a USDC or USDT deposit fee in the documented Spend flow, but the sending exchange or wallet and the blockchain can charge separately. Send to Spend with another token adds the documented swap fee and a small SOL network fee. A token sent on an unsupported network can also be permanently lost.
How should I compare a bank payout fee?
Compare the complete source-currency debit with the final usable amount in the recipient’s currency. Include funding, conversion, payout, timing and receiving-bank costs instead of comparing one fixed-fee headline.
Does the fee table guarantee my route?
No. The table is for planning and can change. Your verified account, destination, beneficiary fields, corridor restrictions, quote, fee and final confirmation determine what can actually be sent.
Preflight before choosing the account route
Use the site’s Route Finder to state where the money starts, what you need to do with it, and what final result matters. Then use Quote Compare with the complete debit and usable amount from current quotes. If the numbers work for your route, sign up for Jupiter Global and check the live fee, destination and final amount in the app before you pay. Eligible Jupiter Card purchases earn 2% cashback, up to $100 a month; ATM withdrawals, QR Pay, remittances and account funding don’t.
