Claim or restake rewards
Before you start
Ensure the following:
- You are using a Chrome Browser.
- You have a MetaMask wallet extension (opens in a new tab) installed and set up in Chrome.
Claim rewards
You can claim or restake your rewards after the locking period of 84–91 days. This period applies to each staking transaction independently.
However, your stake will keep generating rewards until you unstake, whether or not the locking period has ended.
Rewards accrue on the weekly basis, i.e. you can claim rewards once a week, not daily.
Claim all rewards
You may not want to restake your rewards and may want to claim all unlocked rewards at once. To do that:
- Visit Ankr Staking Dashboard (opens in a new tab).
- Locate ANKR under Staked tokens and click Manage.
- On the management page, see the rewards that are past the locking period under Claimable rewards.
- Click Claim.
- On the next page, click Claim all.
- Confirm the reward-claiming transaction.
- On the next page, click Go to dashboard.
Claim rewards for specific staking transactions
You may want to restake some of your rewards to get higher APY. To do that:
- Visit Ankr Staking Dashboard (opens in a new tab).
- Locate ANKR under Staked tokens and click Manage.
- On the management page, under Active Staking, choose a Node Provider and an unlocked stake.
- Click Claim next to the chosen reward.
- On the next page, click Claim.
- Confirm the reward-claiming transaction.
- On the next page, click Go to dashboard.
Restake rewards
For each of your restaking transactions, you'll be able to claim or, in turn, restake your rewards after the locking period of 84–91 days. This period applies to each restaking transaction independently.
However, your restake will keep generating rewards until you unstake, whether or not the locking period has ended.
You can restake your rewards to increase you APY. To do that:
- Visit Ankr Staking Dashboard (opens in a new tab).
- Locate ANKR under Staked tokens and click Manage.
- On the management page, under Active Staking, choose a Node Provider and an unlocked reward.
- Click Restake next to the chosen reward.
- Confirm the restaking transaction.
