claiming fees

claiming converts your accrued share of the staker pool into SOL in your wallet. it's instant and free aside from gas.

§what claim does

at claim time, the contract computes your slice of the pool's uncollected fees, transfers them to your wallet, and advances your "claimed-to" cursor. future fees keep accruing on top.

claiming does not reset your time-weight. only unstaking does that.

§two places to claim

• per-token, from the token's stake panel — useful for one position
• batched, from your portfolio view — one transaction, every active stake

§when to claim

there's no penalty for claiming early or late. no minimum amount. no expiry. it's a personal preference question:

• let it pile — claim once a quarter, fewer txs, one sweep
• claim-and-restake — claim everything when you buy more, restake the combined balance
• never claim — let the pool grow against your share; functionally identical until you exit

the math doesn't care which pattern you pick.

§graduation doesn't pause claims

a token that's graduated to a Meteora DAMM v2 pool keeps growing its staker pool — the partner share of every swap accrues against our permanently-locked LP position, and our fee-distribution program claims those accrued fees on a schedule and forwards 80% of the partner cut into the same pool you're claiming from. nothing changes for you UX-wise.
