Pricing & APY

How rental prices are set and how provider APY is calculated.

How buyers are priced

Rental price is set per order via unitPrice (SUN per resource unit) — either a fixed number or a tier (SLOW / MEDIUM / FAST). The market's live order book determines what a given tier resolves to. See The Rental Model for the exact tier rules.

• 1 TRX = 1,000,000 SUN.

• Always estimate before ordering to see the current price and available supply.

How provider APY is calculated

A provider's return combines the rental income (APR) compounded, plus TRON voting rewards (VR):

$$APR_{tronsave} = \frac{AP \times FR}{1{,}000{,}000} \times PS \times 365$$

Symbol	Meaning
AP	Average Price of the 200 nearest matched orders (SUN)
FR	Freeze Rate on the TRON network (SUN per staked TRX)
PS	Profit Share of the provider on TronSave = 0.75
1,000,000	SUN per TRX

$$APY_{total} = \left(1 + \frac{APR_{tronsave}}{12}\right)^{12} - 1 + VR$$

• VR (Vote Rate): potential voting reward, ~4% — check at tronscan.org.

Worked example

If AP = 30 SUN, FR = 16.5, VR = 4%:

$$APR_{tronsave} = \frac{30 \times 16.5}{1{,}000{,}000} \times 0.75 \times 365 \approx 0.1355 = 13.55\%$$

$$APY_{total} = \left(1 + \frac{0.1355}{12}\right)^{12} - 1 + 4\% \approx 18.4\%$$

AP, FR and VR all move with market conditions, so live APY varies. Use the formula above with current values, or check the figure shown in the TronSave app.
