# Eclipse Revenue Model

When building Eclipse Pads' revenue model, we took many factors into consideration, balancing short and long-term accrual within the community, as well as revenue sources for operations and scaling the platform. 

This is important to sustain runway and help accelerate platform growth.\
Operational revenue sources will go towards team salaries, platform costs, legal costs, marketing expenses, treasury and general scaling. In the future, this will change as the platform evolves into a DAO.

This section will break down the different revenue sources for Eclipse Pad from an operational perspective, other pieces related to platform revenue and value accrual will be covered in the [Deflationary Model](/eclipse-pad/tokenomics/deflationary-model.md) and [Rewards Pool](/eclipse-pad/eclipse-mechanics/rewards-pool.md) sections.

Here is the breakdown:

### Vested position NFTs

The trading of vested IDO NFTs is subject to a 10% royalty fee when trading on the secondary market, 30% of these collected royalty fees will go towards the platform operational expenses and scaling.

### Airdrop NFTs&#x20;

The trading of Airdrop NFTs is subject to a 10% royalty fees when traded on the secondary market, 20% of these fees will go towards the platform operational expenses. 60% will go towards the projects airdroping these airdrop NFTs. Eclipse Pad will receive this portion on the trading of the $ECLIP token NFT airdrops.

### Protocol Owned Liqudity Revenue&#x20;

Eclipse Pad will build up protocol owned liquidity pools through LP NFTs, these will generate farming rewards for the platform. 50% of POL revenue will go towards platform operational expenses.

### Fees for projects launching&#x20;

Eclipse pad will take a launch fee from IDO launches which will go towards operational and marketing costs. This fee will be a 7% cash fee of the raised amount on the IDO.&#x20;

### Accelerator fees&#x20;

As part of the accelerator, projects will receive assistance and introductions in their fundraising. Projects will be able to tap into a network of quality value-add venture funds and angels. Eclipse accelerator will take a small cash percentage on successfully closed investments from introductions. This will be negotiated on a case-by-case, and will go towards accelerator operations.\
