About Polygon PoS

Polygon PoS is renowned for its extremely low transaction fees, averaging approximately $0.015 per transaction. This makes it highly cost-effective for high-frequency applications such as games, NFT marketplaces, and social dApps. Fees are paid in POL, the network's native gas token.

About Polygon zkEVM

Polygon zkEVM also offers significantly reduced fees compared to Ethereum mainnet, leveraging ZK-rollup compression to batch many transactions into a single on-chain proof submission. While fees are slightly higher than Polygon PoS, users benefit from Ethereum-level security guarantees in return.

Sub-Cent PoS Fees

Polygon PoS averages $0.015 per transaction, making it one of the most affordable EVM-compatible networks.

zkEVM Batch Savings

Polygon zkEVM batches transactions off-chain, spreading proof submission costs across many users.

POL Gas Token

Both networks use POL as the native gas and staking token following the September 2024 MATIC migration.

Fee Comparison

Ethereum mainnet fees can be 10–100x higher than Polygon PoS, making L2 solutions essential for dApp adoption.
