# Fee Structure

To maintain sustainable operations and support long-term token value, the game applies a **single income tax** mechanism.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Income Tax:** **5%** — Applied whenever players earn in-game rewards.

*Example:* If a beverage is sold for **100 ZHU**, the player will receive **95 ZHU**, and **5 ZHU** will be collected as tax.

These tax proceeds are allocated to game operations, ecosystem maintenance, and initiatives that help preserve the long-term value of the ZHU token.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Withdrawal Fee:** **0%**

Currently, no fee is applied when withdrawing earnings on-chain.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

This streamlined tax structure ensures fairness and transparency for players while providing the necessary resources for the project’s ongoing growth and stability.
