Claim Fees While Your SpookySwap V3 Position Stays Open

On a SpookySwap V3 position, one claim transaction can send earned tokens to your wallet while your deposited liquidity stays in the pool.

  • V3 fees build up separately and can be claimed without closing your position.
  • Your position earns fees only while its price range is active.
  • Classic V2 pool fees stay in the pool until you withdraw liquidity.

V3 lets you claim fees without withdrawing liquidity

In a V3 pool, you choose a price range for your liquidity. You earn a share of swap fees only while the pool’s price is inside that range; if it moves outside, your position stops earning until the price returns.

The pool’s fee tier sets what traders pay: SpookySwap V3 lists 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.30% and 1% tiers. For example, a swap of 1,000 token units in a 0.30% pool creates 3 units in fees before any protocol share; your position gets only its share of the active liquidity.

To claim, connect your wallet on the right network, open your pool positions and select the one you want. Check the fee amounts and price range, choose “Collect fees,” then review and confirm the wallet transaction. Fees go to your wallet in the pool’s tokens; they do not automatically increase your position.

Before adding liquidity, inspect the pair’s route and price impact; how SpookySwap routes trades across pools helps explain which pool may handle a swap. Ethereum.org describes gas as the cost of running a transaction, so compare that network cost with the amount you plan to collect. Small balances may be better left to build.

Classic pools include fees in your pool share

In a classic V2 pool, fees stay in the pool and increase the value of your share over time. There is no separate fee-only claim while keeping that share deposited; you receive your portion of the pool, including its fee value, when you remove liquidity.

This suits you if you want a simpler, full-range position and do not need to withdraw fees on their own. It does not fit if you need fee tokens in your wallet while your original liquidity remains in the pool.

Choose V3 if separate fee claims matter and you can monitor your price range; choose a classic pool if you accept collecting fees only when you withdraw.
