🪙 How Payouts Work
Creators on DRiP earn 💧 droplets from various sources:
🫴 Thanks (Donations)
🔒 Secures
🔨 Auctions
🛍️ Storefront sales
Droplets earned between midnight–midnight PST are calculated once per day and paid out the following morning around 11am CDT in USDC directly to your payout wallet.
💰 Current Fee Structure
As of the latest payout model, DRiP no longer takes an upfront percentage of droplet purchases.
Instead, minimal fees apply directly to transactions on the payout side:
| Transaction Type | Platform Fee |
Creator Receives |
|---|---|---|
| Store Listings & Auctions | 1% | 99% |
| Thanks (Donations) | 1% | 99% |
| Secures | 1% | 99% |
This structure increases the value of each droplet from $0.0007 → $0.001 USDC, giving creators higher and more consistent payouts.
🧮 Payout Timing & Calculation
All droplets earned during the accrual window (midnight–midnight PST) are totaled, converted into USDC, and paid out in one transaction daily.
For example:
If you earned 2,500 💧 droplets today, your payout of 2.5 USDC (minus applicable fees) will be issued tomorrow around 11am CDT.
🪙 USDC Accounts
DRiP issues payouts in USDC (Solana) to your connected payout wallet.
To receive them, you must have an active USDC token account with a small existing balance.
Even 0.001 USDC is enough to keep your account open.
If your USDC account is closed or has no active balance, payouts will pause automatically and accumulate until the account is reopened.
Once reopened or funded, all pending payouts will be released in the next daily cycle.
💡 If you need to open or fund your USDC account, you can swap directly from your wallet (we recommend Jup Mobile for the smoothest experience)
✅ Summary
Payouts occur daily around 11am CDT.
Keep an active USDC (Solana) balance to receive them.
Droplet value = 0.001 USDC.
Platform fees apply only to transactions, not up front.
If payouts pause, simply reopen or fund your USDC account — your total will resume automatically.
