# Minimal savings

{% hint style="success" %}
**Savings** are the level of assets you save within a multi-route swap compared to single-route swap.
{% endhint %}

Because of [slippage](/en/trade/advanced/slippage.md) multi-route swaps slightly increase the chance of their failure, fully or partialy. And, although the router always takes it into account, multiple routes assume higher network fee for a swap.

When Minimal savings enabled, multiple routes will only be proposed if the benefit exceeds the set level.

{% hint style="info" %}
Extra network fee for proposed multi-route swap never exceeds its overall benefit and the minimal savings level.
{% endhint %}
