# Fees Paid on Source Chain

anyCall V6 allows execution gas fees to be paid on the source chain instead of the destination chain.&#x20;

If you want to pay fees on the source chain, simply set **\_flags** as 2 in the anyCall function.

`function anyCall( address _to, bytes calldata _data, address _fallback, uint256 _toChainID, uint256`` `**`_flags`**` ``)`

{% hint style="info" %}
This allows guaranteed execution on the destination chain and also allows dapps to charge gas fees from users.
{% endhint %}

### Import

Firstly, anyCall needs to be imported as a payable function as below:

```
interface CallProxy{
    function anyCall(
        address _to,
        bytes calldata _data,
        address _fallback,
        uint256 _toChainID,
        uint256 _flags

    ) payable external;
}
```

The specific fees can be calculated with this helper function in the anyCall contract:

{% hint style="info" %}
\_appID can simply be 0 as it's only used for specific dapps with special setting.
{% endhint %}

```
function calcSrcFees(
    string calldata _appID,
    uint256 _toChainID,
    uint256 _dataLength
) external view returns (uint256) {
    return _calcSrcFees(_appID, _toChainID, _dataLength);
}
```

```
function _calcSrcFees(
        string memory _appID,
        uint256 _toChainID,
        uint256 _dataLength
    ) internal view returns (uint256) {
        SrcFeeConfig memory customFees = srcCustomFees[_appID][_toChainID];
        uint256 customBaseFees = customFees.baseFees;
        uint256 customFeesPerBytes = customFees.feesPerByte;

        if (isUseCustomSrcFees(_appID, _toChainID)) {
            return customBaseFees + _dataLength * customFeesPerBytes;
        }

        SrcFeeConfig memory defaultFees = srcDefaultFees[_toChainID];
        uint256 defaultBaseFees = defaultFees.baseFees;
        uint256 defaultFeesPerBytes = defaultFees.feesPerByte;

        uint256 baseFees = (customBaseFees > defaultBaseFees) ? customBaseFees : defaultBaseFees;
        uint256 feesPerByte = (customFeesPerBytes > defaultFeesPerBytes) ? customFeesPerBytes : defaultFeesPerBytes;

        return baseFees + _dataLength * feesPerByte;
    }
}
```

The formula is a default fee + fee per byte in the calldata: **baseFees + \_dataLength \* feesPerByte**

### How is fee paid?

After calculating the correct amount of fees to paid with the helped function, the fee should be paid as msg.value (The native gas token)&#x20;

Then anyCall can be called with {value:msg.value} to pay fee on source chain.

`CallProxy(anycallcontract).anyCall{value: msg.value}`
