when will fideliity stop dram etf fees
Fidelity’s fee on buying DRAM appears to have started on June 1, 2026, not at some future date. Public reports and user discussions around the rollout say nearly all Roundhill ETFs, including DRAM, became subject to Fidelity’s purchase fee at that point, with the charge often described as 5% up to $100.
Quick Scoop
There is no sign in the information I found that Fidelity plans to “stop” the DRAM ETF fee anytime soon. The latest public chatter instead suggests the fee is already active for new purchases, and one report notes the policy was tied to ETF sponsors not paying Fidelity’s support fee arrangement.
What this means
- If you are trying to buy more DRAM at Fidelity, expect the fee to show up now.
- The fee structure being reported is a 5% purchase charge, capped at $100.
- Existing holders are being discussed separately from new purchases, so the main impact is on buying more shares rather than simply owning the ETF.
Why the confusion
A lot of forum posts mix together the date the policy was announced, the date it became effective, and whether a particular fund was added to the list later. That is why some people mention “Sunday” or “end of year” in posts, but the more consistent public reporting points to June 1, 2026 as the effective date.
Practical read
If your question is “when will Fidelity stop charging this fee,” the honest answer is: there is no verified stop date in the sources I found. Unless Fidelity changes its policy or the fund sponsor reaches a different arrangement, the fee appears to remain in place for DRAM purchases at Fidelity.
TL;DR
Fidelity’s DRAM fee seems to have started on June 1, 2026, and I found no confirmed date for it to end.
