Cost comparison
Not enough reviews available.
Rabby is free, with no account and no subscription. For every transaction you pay the network's gas fee. For swaps and bridges in the app, Rabby states its fee in the help center, and it is already included in the quote shown.
| Action | Cost at Rabby |
|---|---|
| Download and use the wallet | free, no account |
| Send crypto | network gas fee |
| Swap in the app | 0.25% Rabby fee, included in the quote, plus gas |
| Swaps between the listed stablecoins or between ETH and the listed ETH DeFi tokens on the same chain | 0% Rabby fee (as of 21 July 2026), gas still applies |
| Bridge between networks | 0.25% Rabby fee, included in the quote, plus gas and bridge fees |
How to save: on a 1,000 euro swap, 2.50 euros go to Rabby, plus gas. Between listed stablecoins such as USDT and USDC on the same chain the Rabby fee disappears entirely. Because Rabby approves only the amount needed, you also save revoking later and the gas that costs. Larger purchases with euros go through an exchange from our exchange comparison.
Tax: in many countries a swap is a disposal and can be taxable. A tool from our crypto tax software comparison keeps the records.
More security: for larger holdings, connect Rabby to a device from our hardware wallet comparison. How Rabby compares with the best-known EVM wallet is covered in our MetaMask review, more wallets in our software wallet comparison.
As of 27 October 2026 according to the Rabby help center: supported networks and tokens (11 June 2026), Rabby Swap, 0% swap fee pairs (21 July 2026), supported hardware wallets, plus the source code on GitHub.

The five areas head to head
AI AnalysisFees & Costs
The wallet is free; network fees go to the respective blockchain and are negligible on Solana. Swapping inside the wallet carries a markup — for larger amounts it is worth comparing against a swap through an aggregator. As of August 2026.
The wallet itself is free; transactions cost the network's gas fee. For swaps and bridges in the app Rabby charges 0.25%, already included in the quote. For the listed tokens this fee is waived on swaps between stablecoins such as USDT, USDC and USDe, and between ETH and ETH DeFi tokens such as WETH, stETH and wstETH on the same chain (as of 21 July 2026). As of October 2026.
Usability & User Experience
The interface is the cleanest in this comparison and immediately legible to newcomers; transactions on Solana confirm almost instantly. Available as a browser extension and mobile app. As of August 2026.
Rabby is above all a browser extension for Chrome, Brave and Edge, with desktop apps for macOS and Windows and mobile apps for iOS and Android. The biggest convenience: on the integrated networks Rabby switches to the network a dApp needs by itself, so you never add or switch networks by hand. Coming from MetaMask, you bring your existing wallet over in a few steps via seed phrase, private key or hardware wallet; your tokens, NFTs and staking positions stay unaffected. In the German App Store the mobile app is rated 3.6 out of 5 (229 ratings), on Google Play 4.7 (7,670 reviews, 500,000+ downloads), retrieved on 27 October 2026. As of October 2026.
Features & Offering
Nine networks are supported, among them Solana, Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Sui and Bitcoin with Native SegWit and Taproot addresses including Ordinals. NFT management, SOL staking, biometric unlock, verification of trusted applications and hardware wallet pairing round this out. As of August 2026.
Rabby supports all EVM-compatible networks, 80+ of them natively integrated; you can add others as custom networks. On the integrated networks Rabby offers a portfolio view, shows before every transaction how your balance will change, warns about risky signatures and lets you manage and revoke smart-contract approvals right in the wallet. In the app you swap and bridge tokens, and perpetual contracts are integrated too. The extension supports eleven hardware wallets: Ledger, Trezor, GridPlus, OneKey, Keystone, NGRAVE ZERO, BitBox02, CoolWallet, AirGap Vault, imToken and imKey. The mobile app supports four: Ledger, Trezor, Keystone and OneKey. Rabby does not support Bitcoin, Solana or Tron. As of October 2026.
Stability & Security

Rabby comes from the team behind DeBank; the apps are published by Opcode Labs Pte. Ltd. in Singapore. The source code of the browser extension is open on GitHub, and the extension was audited by two security firms in 2025: SlowMist (report dated 21 August 2025) and Least Authority (report dated 3 September 2025). Rabby approves swaps only for the amount needed instead of unlimited, which reduces the risk from old approvals. As of October 2026.

Verdict
In our overall rating Rabby Wallet leads with 4.1 against 3.8 for Phantom.
For most investors Rabby Wallet is therefore the better choice.
Phantom made its name as a Solana wallet and still offers the best user experience there: the interface is uncluttered, transactions settle quickly and getting started works without prior knowledge. For anyone active in the Solana ecosystem there is little better.
The wallet is now considerably broader than its reputation suggests: alongside Solana it supports Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Sui and — contrary to common assumption — Bitcoin, with Native SegWit and Taproot addresses including Ordinals. The network list has grown from five to nine chains.
The limit is still clear: Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Chain and Avalanche are not natively integrated, so anyone active there needs a second wallet. Phantom is not an everything-wallet but a deliberately curated selection. As with any self-custody setup there is no deposit protection and no counterparty if the recovery phrase is lost.
Rabby is the best choice for anyone who regularly uses DeFi applications on Ethereum and the EVM networks. On the integrated networks, the simulation before every transaction shows in plain terms what it does to your balance, and with approvals and unknown contracts that is real protection. Automatic network switching makes everyday use across several layer-2 networks much smoother.
The scope is clear: Rabby is an EVM-only wallet. If you want to hold Bitcoin, Solana or Tron, you need a second wallet for them.
For swaps and bridges Rabby states its fee clearly: 0.25%, zero on the listed stablecoin and ETH pairs on the same chain. Switching from MetaMask, you bring your wallet over in a few steps and get far more security information before every transaction on the integrated networks; our MetaMask review puts the comparison in context.
