<h1>FAQs</h1>
Can I pay more to go before a maker transaction?
No. Phase 1 (maker transactions) always drains before Phase 2 (bundles + regular transactions). Higher fees or tips improve your priority within Phase 2 but cannot move work ahead of Phase 1.
Does every BAM node run the maker plugin?
At launch, the maker priority plugin will be available on BAM leaders connected to BAM nodes in select regions.
Are maker transactions visible onchain?
Yes. Maker transactions appear onchain as ordinary Solana transactions.
Can market makers send transactions to both the Maker Priority Plugin TPU and the normal TPU?
Yes. BAM will automatically drop transactions from the regular TPU if it was scheduled in Phase 1.
Can I send bundles to the Maker Priority Plugin?
No.
