CatFee rents energy in packages from 65,000 to 5 million units, to be used within 1 hour of delivery. On September 30, 2026 its homepage priced 65,000 energy at about 1.3 TRX an hour in off-peak hours (08:00 to 20:00, UTC+8) and 1.820 TRX at peak (20:00 to 08:00, UTC+8); recent orders on the page were filled at 20 sun per energy. Activating a new address adds 1.2 TRX.

Orders can be placed on the website, by a TRX transfer, through the Telegram bot @CatFeeProBot or through the API. For developers, CatFee offers an endpoint that takes a signed transaction and supplies the energy before broadcasting it, and a tool called TRON Mate that monitors addresses and refills energy automatically. TRX holders can also sell their staked energy through CatFee.
CatFee’s calculator put the alternatives at about 6.5 TRX burned, or about 6,676 TRX staked, for the same 65,000 energy at the time of the check.
Before you buy: CatFee does not name the company behind it, and its own pages give conflicting answers on refunds for wrong amounts or addresses, so send the exact amount shown. It lists 24/7 support on Telegram, WhatsApp and email.
