# Swap

## Constant Product Market Maker

Garuda DeFi Swap using **Constant Product Market Maker**. It maintains a constant product of the quantities of two tokens in a liquidity pool. The formula is: 

**x \* y = k**

where x and y are the quantities of the two tokens, and k is a constant. As users trade tokens, the quantities x and y change, but the product k remains constant. 

This ensures that prices adjust automatically based on supply and demand.

## Trading Fees

In Garuda DeFI, trading fees are set to 0.5% \* ( 0.2% for Liquidity providers and 0.3% for [GDEX Shares](/products/gdex-token.md) )  for each trade which will be deducted from the transaction of the asset received by the trader.

| Trading Fees        | 0.5% |
| ------------------- | ---- |
| Liquidity Providers | 0.2% |
| GDEX Shares         | 0.3% |
