Rewards
TMC Rewards pay the people who trade, and the people who bring traders. Traders get cashback. People who bring traders get referral rewards. Both are paid in SOL and claimed by hand with one Claim button.
Overview
Cashback goes to you when you trade. Referral rewards go to you when traders who joined with your link trade. Cashback is calculated on a 0.50% base of your trading volume. Referral rewards are your tier's percentage of 1% of your referees' trading volume. Their cashback does not reduce your share. Both apply to 1-Click trades. Nothing is paid automatically: you claim your Rewards yourself.
| Cashback | Referral rewards | |
|---|---|---|
| Who gets it | Any trader | Anyone whose link brought a trader |
| Starts at | 0% (20% if you joined with a referral link) | 20% from the first trade of your first referee |
| Maximum | 35% | 50% |
| Tier follows | Your own volume, last 7 days | Your referees' combined volume, last 7 days |
| Expires | 24 hours after its window opens | Never |
Tiers
One grid for everyone. For cashback, the tier is a percentage of a 0.50% base of your volume: 20% pays 0.10% of the volume and 35% pays 0.175%. For referral rewards, the tier is a percentage of 1% of your referees' volume: 20% pays 0.20% of the volume and 35% pays 0.35%. Their cashback does not reduce your share.
| Volume, last 7 days | Trader | Referee | Referrer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 25 SOL | 0% | 20% | 20% once a referee has traded |
| 25 SOL or more | 20% | 20% | 20% |
| 1,500 SOL or more | 35% | 35% | 35% |
| 7,500 SOL or more | 35% max | 35% max | 50% max |
A referee is a trader who joined through someone's referral link. A referee starts at 20% instead of 0% and never goes above 35%.
A referrer is the person who shared the link. For a referrer, the volume that counts is the combined volume of all their referees, not their own. A referrer's own trades earn cashback separately, on their own volume.
The two top tiers are meant to be hard to reach. The 50% tier is for referrers only.
The 7-day window
Your tier follows your trading volume over the last 7 days. It is a rolling window, not a calendar week. Every day at 00:00 UTC, TMC adds up the SOL volume of your 1-Click trades over the previous 7 days. Buys and sells both count.
Old trades drop out as new ones come in. Trade steadily and your tier holds. Go quiet and it eases down, one step at a time.
How tiers go up and down
Up is immediate. As soon as the volume before a trade reaches a threshold, that trade is paid at the higher tier. You can jump more than one tier at once.
Down is gradual. If your 7-day volume falls below your tier's threshold, you drop one tier, never more, and at most once every 7 days.
For example, you are at 35% and your 7-day volume falls under 1,500 SOL. You move to 20%. Even if you then stop trading entirely, you cannot reach 0% before a week has passed.
Referees start at 20% and have no floor: if they stop trading they come down one tier per week, all the way to 0%. A referrer never goes below 20%.
What counts
- 1-Click trades only. Trades signed with your 1-Click wallet earn cashback and count toward tiers. Trades from an extension wallet (Phantom, Solflare) do not.
- Buys and sells. Both count, at the same rate.
- Volume only. Cashback is calculated on a 0.50% base of your trading volume. Referral rewards are calculated on a 1% base of your referees' trading volume. The two do not reduce each other. The flat 0.00097 SOL on 1-Click trades and Solana network fees never enter the calculation.
- Confirmed trades only. A trade that fails pays no fee and earns nothing. Rewards apply to 1-Click trades made since the program started.
See Fees for the full fee breakdown.
FAQ
Why did my tier drop?
Your 7-day volume fell below your tier's threshold. A tier drops one level at a time, and at most once every 7 days. It rises again as soon as your volume reaches the threshold.
What happens if I miss the 24 hours?
Cashback that is not claimed within 24 hours of its window opening expires and cannot be recovered. Referral rewards never expire. See Cashback.
Can I refer myself?
No. Referring your own accounts, or using several accounts to collect Rewards, is not allowed, and Rewards tied to it can be withheld or recovered. See Referrals.
Why can't I click Claim?
By default, Claim opens once you have at least 0.01 SOL to claim, cashback and referral rewards together. Below that, your Rewards keep building up.
Why is my Claim smaller than my balance?
Each payout costs a fixed 0.00097 SOL, deducted from the amount you claim. The Claim button shows the net amount you will receive. See Claiming.
Do Rewards apply to trades from my extension wallet?
No. Cashback and tier volume come from 1-Click trades only.
Does my own trading count toward my referrer tier?
No. Your referrer tier follows the combined volume of the traders you referred. Your own trading sets your own cashback tier, separately.
Do I need to claim, or is it automatic?
You claim. Rewards are never sent automatically.
Can TMC change the program?
Yes. TMC may change tiers, rates, minimums or fees, or end the program, with 7 days' notice in the app. Rewards you already earned are not reduced. See the Terms of Use.
