# Revenue sharing

> Earn 0.5% of swap volume from your integration with self-serve activation, instant keys, and USDC payouts to your LightSwap account.

Revenue sharing pays you **0.5% of the swap volume** completed through your API key or widget key. Fees accrue in USDC and pay out to your LightSwap account balance.

Activation is self-serve: no contact, no agreement, no waiting.

## Activate

<Steps>
  <Step title="Sign in to LightSwap">
    Open [lightswap.me](https://lightswap.me/account) and sign in.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open Account → Business">
    Select **Activate business account**. Your API key and widget key are created instantly.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save your API key">
    The API key is shown only once. Copy it and store it somewhere safe. The widget URL and embed code stay copyable from the tab at any time.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Activating again never creates a second account and never shows the API key again. You can regenerate either key from the tab; the old key stops working immediately.
</Note>

## What you earn

You earn 0.5% of every completed swap made through your keys. The fee comes out of LightSwap's side of the swap volume and does not change the rate your users get.

Example: your users swap 10,000 USD of volume through your integration. Your share is 50 USDC.

The Business tab shows attributed volume, swap count, and earned fees as they accrue, with per-swap fee history and payout history. API and widget earnings are tracked separately, so you can see which channel performs.

## Payouts

* Claim once your available balance reaches **10 USDC**.
* A claim credits the fees to your LightSwap account balance in USDC.
* From there, withdraw to any external wallet with the normal [account withdrawal flow](/account/balances).

## Prefer no integration?

Share a referral link from **Account → Referrals** and earn 0.25% of referred swap volume. No code required. See [Referrals](/account/referrals).

## Custom agreements

Self-serve activation always uses the flat 0.5% rate. For custom commercial terms, contact the team.
