Add priority fees to your transactions to ensure faster confirmation during network congestion. Phantom automatically applies priority fees, but you can also set them manually.

Priority fee recommendations

Priority fees are measured in micro-lamports per compute unit. Common values:
  • Low priority: 1,000 - 5,000 micro-lamports (for non-urgent transactions)
  • Medium priority: 5,000 - 25,000 micro-lamports (standard transactions)
  • High priority: 25,000+ micro-lamports (urgent transactions during congestion)
Automatic priority fees: If you don’t add priority fee instructions, Phantom will automatically calculate and apply appropriate priority fees to your transaction, provided it meets certain requirements.
