Trade & Earn
Earn Credits when your cumulative trade volume hits configured milestones.
Find it at: the Trade & Earn tile in the Account → Quick Actions grid.
Visibility depends on a feature flag — you may not see this reward yet. Trade & Earn is gated by the enable_trade_earn flag and rolled out progressively per region and cohort.
1. What you earn
Trade & Earn defines a series of cumulative-volume milestones. Each milestone has a USD threshold and a Credits payout. As your tracked trade volume crosses each threshold, the corresponding milestone becomes claimable.
| Milestone state | Meaning |
|---|---|
locked | Volume has not reached this threshold yet |
claimable | Threshold reached — Credits ready to claim |
claimed | Credits already credited to your account |
The exact milestone thresholds and Credits payouts are being finalized. The current dialog uses a fallback ladder of $500 / $2,000 / $5,000 with payouts in the 100–500 Credits range, but the live schedule from the backend may differ. Numbers shown in the dialog supersede anything documented here.
All Credits granted are Limited-time Credits (Limited-time → Monthly → Recharge deduction order).
2. Which trades count
Trade & Earn counts cumulative volume from your connected trade rails. The three independent rails are:
- Stock Trading — real-broker execution via SnapTrade
- Hyperliquid Perpetuals — on-chain perpetuals via Hyperliquid DEX
- Prediction Markets — Polymarket binary markets
You must have at least one rail connected (typically the first milestone is a "Connect Broker" step) for volume to accumulate.
The exact weighting between rails (does $1 of SnapTrade volume count the same as $1 of Hyperliquid perps or $1 of Polymarket?) is TBC. The dialog shows your effective current_volume and the next_reward_threshold — those are authoritative.
3. How to claim
- Open the Trade & Earn tile (Account → Quick Actions).
- The dialog shows your current cumulative volume, the next reward threshold, and the milestone ladder.
- For any milestone in the
claimablestate, tap Claim <N> Credits at the bottom of the dialog. - The dialog flips to a "Reward Claimed!" view confirming the Credits added.
If no milestone is claimable yet, the bottom button reads Trade Now and routes you to /account/snap-trade to connect a broker or place a trade.
4. Limits and rules
- Each milestone can be claimed once per account (server-side idempotent).
- Milestones must be claimed in order — you cannot skip a lower threshold.
- Wash trading or volume manipulation may result in disqualification (see Leaderboard rules — same principle).
Season / reset behavior is TBC. As of now Trade & Earn treats cumulative volume as a lifetime counter; whether thresholds reset on a season cadence has not been confirmed. The dialog reflects the live backend state.
5. Where to view your earnings
- Per-claim confirmation: the "Reward Claimed!" view inside the dialog.
- Milestone progress: the dialog itself, with the progress bar and per-node
+<N>Credits chips. - Credits balance:
