Explanation of Electricity Fees / Hosting Fees

BitFuFu is dedicated to providing users with a convenient and intelligent operations management experience. Understanding the service fee payment mechanisms and strategies will effectively ensure your mining rigs run continuously while optimizing your overall return on investment.


What is the Service Fee / Hosting Fee?

The service fee refers to the operational and maintenance expenses incurred by BitFuFu to ensure the stable performance of the mining rigs. This includes electricity costs, repair fees, maintenance fees, and transportation costs.

  • Prepayment upon Ordering: When placing an order for a plan, a minimum of 10 days of service fees is typically required as a prepayment.
  • Balance Management: Please ensure that your remaining service fee days stay > 0. If a plan is suspended due to non-payment, the platform will not provide compensation for the duration or output lost during the suspension period.


Four Flexible Payment Methods

BitFuFu provides a variety of payment channels. We highly recommend enabling at least one automated method to prevent any interruptions in mining:

Revenue Optimization: Payment Strategies for Market Fluctuations

Choosing the right payment currency based on market trends can significantly boost your final returns:

  • Bull Market / Low Coin Prices: We recommend using USDT to pay service fees. This allows you to hold onto your mined BTC and wait for the price to rebound, maximizing asset appreciation potential.
  • High Coin Prices: As BTC purchasing power strengthens, we recommend using BTC (Output Auto-Deduction) to pay service fees. This lets you cover the same operational costs using less crypto.


Management Tools

You can configure these options individually or in bulk on the BitFuFu platform by visiting the "My Hashrate - Service Fee" or "My Hosting - Hosting Fee" pages. We strongly recommend enabling "Auto-Deduction" to keep your mining operations running 24/7 without interruption.
