Holder Rewards

Creator fees, shared with holders

When launching on URGE, a creator can choose to share part of their creator fee with the coin's holders. If you hold an eligible amount of such a coin, you receive a share of those fees for each day you hold it, paid in SOL.

Holder rewards exist only on coins whose creator chose a share at launch. Those coins show “Holder rewards enabled” on their page; other coins have no holder rewards.

How creators opt in

At launch, the creator picks a share of their creator fee for holders: 0% · 25% · 50% · 100%. The choice is recorded on-chain and can't be changed afterwards. With a share above 0%, the coin's creator fees are paid to an on-chain program that splits them between holders and the creator; the holders' part stays in the program until it is paid to holders.

Which fees fund rewards

Only the creator's fee — never URGE's fee, Raydium's fee, or anyone's coins. While the coin trades on URGE, the creator fee is 0.35% of each trade. After the coin moves to Raydium, Raydium keeps part of the creator fee first (currently 5%), and the share applies to what remains.

The percentage is of creator fees, not of trading volume. With a 25% share, holders receive 25% of the creator fee — about 0.0875% of each trade's value while the coin trades on URGE — not 25% of the trade.

Who is eligible

Wallets holding at least 0.001% of the coin's supply. Not eligible: pool and locked-liquidity accounts and other program-owned accounts, the creator's launch wallet, and URGE's operational wallets.

How your share is calculated

Each day (UTC) has its own amount: the holders' part of the creator fees earned that day. It is split by coins held × time held during that day, counting only time at or above the minimum. Selling or sending coins stops earning on them from that moment; what you already earned stays yours. Each wallet's amount rounds down to the lamport, and the remainder carries to the next day. A coin's first day starts at its launch.

When rewards are calculated and paid

A day is calculated after it ends, once its fees are collected and the coin's holder record is complete. Nothing is split on partial data, so a day can wait. Calculated days are published in an allocation file anyone can check, and each published allocation waits a review period of at least 24 hours — during which a wrong one can be stopped — before it can be paid. Payments are then sent to your wallet automatically; there is nothing to claim.

Payout asset

Rewards are paid in SOL only — the asset creator fees are charged in.

Minimums and delays

A first payment from a coin is at least 0.002 SOL; later payments are at least 0.0001 SOL. A wallet holding no SOL needs at least 0.00089088 SOL in one payment (a Solana account rule). Smaller amounts keep adding up — they are never forfeited and never expire. URGE pays the delivery costs; payments wait if they are paused or if URGE's delivery budget is low.

What the statuses mean

A daily reward is not a payment yet. Each day's reward moves through these steps:

Finalized
Calculated. It goes into the coin's next published allocation.
Processing
Published, and waiting out the review period before it can be paid.
Awaiting payment
Ready to pay. Sent automatically once your unpaid total for the coin reaches the payment minimum.
Sending
A payment is being sent now.
Paid
Payment confirmed on Solana.

Where to see your rewards

Your wallet page shows your latest daily rewards across coins, what is not yet paid, and earlier days — including coins you have since sold. Each coin's page shows its share, your rewards on that coin, and its full public rewards record.

Not a promise of income

Rewards depend on trading. A day with no trading fees — or one where you didn't hold an eligible amount — earns nothing. A creator's share is not a return and does not promise any amount.
