3. Arbiter Levels & Monetization

R4G has only one Arbiter level at this time: Grand Arbiter. Grand Arbiters are elligible for revenue sharing and receive the full transaction amount minus an R4G 5% platform fee (Platform Fee) and minus any payment transaction and processing fees (Processing Fees). R4G does not collect any additional hidden or obfuscated fees.

What this means for a GM: R4G will keep 5% of the full transaction amount, plus the Processing Fees incurred by R4G. Here is a table to show an example of how the Platform Fee and the Processing Fees break down for transactions of varying size. The total % of a transaction withheld decreases as the transaction size increases.
