# Vault Fees
Detailed information about each vault's fee structure can be found on the "Vault Info" page (next to "Overview") for each Fusion vault.
Fusion vaults aim to set a standard for transparency in DeFi. The "Vault Info" page includes essential information in that respect, including the wallets of vault-related roles and contracts, as well as, all fees, contributions, and other essential information.
It's recommended that users check the "Vault Info" page before depositing in a vault, so they are informed about fees and the deposit/withdrawal policy.
## Fee Accounting Schedule
Fees are not charged on a fixed calendar schedule (such as monthly or annually). Instead:
* **Automated Deductions**: The fee is calculated and deducted automatically whenever the vault's share price updates—such as during user deposits, withdrawals, or strategy rebalances.
* **Real-Time Share Pricing**: Because fees are processed in parallel with share price updates, the price displayed on your dashboard is always fully up-to-date and net of fees, ensuring no hidden charges at withdrawal.
## Where Do the Fees Go?
When performance fees are collected, they are held in a secure contract and split between:
1. **The IPOR DAO**: A portion goes to the protocol to support the network.
2. **The Vault Curator**: A portion goes directly to the strategists and partners who build and manage the vault.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```

```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
