The [Dynamic Transaction Fee test on Testnet](https://forum.flow.com/t/dynamic-transaction-fee-test-on-testnet-on-friday-august-29th-15-00-utc-to-18-00-utc/8245) was conducted successfully last week. We will now run a smaller-scale test on **Mainnet** to validate that upstream and downstream systems (wallets, dApps, explorers, etc.) adjust to higher transaction fees automatically.

**Date/Time:** Monday, September 8th, 15:00 UTC (8:00 AM Pacific) → Friday, September 12th, 15:00 UTC (8:00 AM Pacific)

### What to Expect

- The **surge factor** will be raised from **1.0 to 1.01** (a 1% increase to transaction fees) by the service committee.

- dApps and wallets are expected to automatically adjust by paying the correct transaction fees.

- Our team will be monitoring transaction error rates and system behavior throughout the test.

### Funding Reminder

If you notice your dApps or wallets being depleted faster during the test, please fund them with additional FLOW.

### How to Track the Current Surge

1. **Query the chain via a script**

2. **Track FeeParametersChanged event**  
When the surge factor changes, the `FeeParametersChanged` event is emitted by the FlowFees contract. Query it with:

3. 
### [Flowscan.io](http://Flowscan.io) now has a new field to display surge
