You can claim validator rewards at any time:

• For a specific validator, via the 'Validators' tab, or;
• For all validators associated with an account, via the 'Account' tab.

Please note that rewards can only be withdrawn to the same account you staked with.

note

Withdrawing validator rewards requires on-chain transactions, and, by extension, paying gas fees. Withdrawing more frequently will result in paying gas fees more often.

Withdraw rewards from one validator

1. From the validator staking homepage, click on the three vertical dots on the right of the validator whose rewards you want to claim (make sure there are some rewards shown in the 'Available rewards ' column, or you won 't be able to claim anything):

2. From the options available, select 'Withdraw rewards only':

3. Now you'll see the 'Review withdrawal' screen. Review the details, and click 'Confirm' if you're happy to proceed. When you withdraw from a validator for the first time, you'll need to sign an additional transaction to prepare your withdrawal address. Thereafter, you can claim with a single transaction per validator.

After a short wait whilst the transaction is picked up and confirmed, you should see a 'Transaction complete' message appear on screen, and the rewards should be available in your account.

Withdraw rewards from all validators

1. Head to the 'Accounts' tab on your validator dashboard. Here you should see all of the validators associated with your account, grouped by status — activating, active, exiting, or exited:

2. Click the three vertical dots next to the 'Active' group, and then 'Withdraw rewards only':

3. Next, you'll see the 'Review withdrawal' screen. If this is your first time withdrawing rewards from your validators, you'll need to sign an additional transaction to prepare your withdrawal address. Thereafter, you can claim from all validators with a single transaction.

Once the claim transaction is completed, you should see a 'Transaction complete' message:
