How Arbitrum gas fees are calculated

Cost = Gas Price (Base Fee + Tip) × Gas Limit × ETH Price. Current base fee: 0.02 GWei. Gas limits are approximate and may vary depending on the contract.

Example: Transfer — 21,000 gas × 0.02 GWei ≈ 420 GWei = 0.00000042 ETH ≈ $0.0009

Gwei to ETH converter

Type a gas price in gwei to see it in ETH, wei and USD at the live ETH price, or type an amount of ETH to get it in gwei. Gas prices are quoted in gwei; your wallet charges the fee in ETH.

1 gwei = 0.000000001 ETH, which is $0.00000205 at the current ETH price of $2,053.36. 1 ETH = 1,000,000,000 gwei = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 wei.

How to convert gas to ETH

Fee in ETH = gas used × gas price in gwei ÷ 1,000,000,000. Multiply the result by the ETH price to get dollars. Right now the Normal gas price is 0.02 gwei, so a 21,000-gas transfer costs 21,000 × 0.02 ÷ 1,000,000,000 = 0.00000042 ETH, about $0.000862.

What are Arbitrum gas fees?

Arbitrum gas fees are the transaction costs paid to validators who process and confirm operations on the Arbitrum network. As an EIP-1559 compatible chain, Arbitrum fees consist of a base fee (adjusted dynamically per block based on network demand) plus a priority tip that incentivises faster transaction inclusion. The Ethereum gas guide walks through how base fee and priority tip combine, using the same model Arbitrum inherits. The cost of a standard transfer (21,000 gas) varies depending on current network congestion and token price.

How to track Arbitrum gas prices

This real-time Arbitrum gas tracker shows the current cost of transactions at four priority levels: Low, Normal, High and Max. Network congestion is currently at 0% (low). Arbitrum produces blocks every 315ms, which means transaction confirmations are very quick. All data is fetched live from the ChainGate API and refreshed automatically every few seconds.

How much does a swap cost on Arbitrum?

Transaction costs on Arbitrum depend on the operation complexity. A simple native token transfer uses 21,000 gas, while an ERC-20 token transfer requires around 65,000 gas. More complex operations like DEX swaps typically use around 150,000 gas, and NFT mints can use 150,000 gas or more. Use the Arbitrum gas fee calculator above to estimate the real-time cost for each operation type at every priority level.

How do I calculate Arbitrum gas fees?

Multiply the gas your transaction uses by the gas price in Gwei, then divide the result by 1,000,000,000 to convert Gwei to ETH. A standard transfer uses 21,000 gas, so at the current 0.02 Gwei it costs about 0.00000042 ETH (<$0.001). Token transfers, swaps and NFT mints use more gas, so they cost proportionally more. The Arbitrum gas fee calculator on this page does the calculation with live prices, or with your own gas limit and gas price.

About Arbitrum gas fees

This tracker follows Arbitrum One, the largest Ethereum rollup by value locked. Gas is paid in ETH and quoted in gwei, and the number above is usually the network's floor of 0.02 gwei: Arbitrum raises it only when demand passes about 7 million gas per second, and the increase fades within a couple of minutes once traffic drops. Blocks arrive roughly every quarter of a second. The questions below cover what people ask most about Arbitrum fees.

Is Arbitrum gas paid in ETH or in ARB?

In ETH. Arbitrum One is an Ethereum rollup, so the gas token is the same ETH you use on mainnet, bridged to Arbitrum. ARB is the governance token of the Arbitrum DAO: it votes on proposals and does not pay for transactions. A wallet holding ARB but no ETH on Arbitrum cannot send anything, so bridge or buy a little ETH on the network first. Arbitrum Nova, the gaming-focused sister chain, also uses ETH.

What is the Arbitrum gas price right now, and why is it so stable?

Right now the normal tier on this page is 0.02 gwei, so a standard transfer of 21,000 gas costs about 0.00000042 ETH before the data share described below. Arbitrum enforces a minimum L2 base fee of 0.02 gwei, raised from 0.01 gwei by a DAO vote, and the price sits at that floor most of the time. It climbs only while demand stays above the gas target of about 7 million gas per second, then decays back over a 102-second window. Tips are ignored: the sequencer orders transactions first come, first served, so paying extra does not get you in sooner.

How does Arbitrum charge for posting data to Ethereum?

Every Arbitrum transaction pays for its execution on the rollup and for publishing its compressed data to Ethereum, where it lands in blob space. Unlike Base and the other OP Stack chains, Arbitrum does not show the Ethereum part as a separate line. It converts the data cost into extra gas units added to your transaction, which is why a plain transfer on Arbitrum reports about 21,600 gas instead of 21,000: the extra few hundred units are the share paid to Ethereum. The calculator above uses 21,000, so real receipts come out a few percent higher.

How much cheaper is Arbitrum than Ethereum?

Right now a standard transfer costs <$0.001 on Arbitrum versus ~$0.003 on Ethereum mainnet, about 3.2 times less. The gap widens when mainnet gets busy, because Arbitrum stays at its floor unless its own traffic spikes, and narrows when mainnet is quiet. Compare both pages before moving funds.

How does this compare with the Arbiscan gas tracker?

Arbiscan shows the same Arbitrum One gas price in gwei alongside recent blocks. This page adds the cost in USD for transfers, token transfers, swaps and NFT mints, the expected confirmation time, a calculator that takes your own gas limit, and a side-by-side comparison with Ethereum mainnet, Base, Optimism, BNB Smart Chain and the other networks on the gas tracker.

How to reduce Arbitrum transaction costs

Select "Low" priority when your transaction is not time-sensitive to pay the minimum fee. Transact during off-peak hours when network congestion is lower. You can also compare Arbitrum fees with other networks on our multi-network gas station to find the cheapest blockchain for your transaction.
