# Creator rewards

Launching a token on pumphood gives you two independent income streams: a **95% cut of every trade's fees**, and a **10% creator vault** that vests to you over a year. Both are claimable straight from your profile.

## Trading fees — 95% to the creator

Every pumphood token trades in a Uniswap V3 pool with a **1% swap fee**. Whenever those fees are collected, they split like this:

<table><thead><tr><th width="220">Recipient</th><th width="140">Share</th><th>Applies to</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Creator</strong> (you)</td><td><strong>95%</strong></td><td>Both sides — WETH <em>and</em> the token</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Platform</strong></td><td><strong>5%</strong></td><td>Both sides — WETH <em>and</em> the token</td></tr></tbody></table>

The more your token trades, the more you earn — in **both** ETH and the token itself.

{% hint style="info" %}
Fee collection is **permissionless**: anyone can trigger it, but the money always goes to the registered recipient. In practice you just tap **Collect** on your profile and the pending fees land in your wallet.
{% endhint %}

### Claiming your fees

1. Open your **profile** (`/me`).
2. Under **Earning for you**, each token shows your pending fees in ETH and tokens.
3. Tap **Collect fees**, confirm in your wallet, done.

## The creator vault

At launch, **10% of your token's supply** is placed into a vesting vault reserved for you. This is the creator's long-term allocation — and it unlocks gradually, so you're aligned with the token over time rather than dumping on day one.

### The vesting schedule

<table><thead><tr><th width="220">Milestone</th><th>What unlocks</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Day 0 – 90</strong> (the cliff)</td><td>Nothing. The vault is locked for the first three months.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Day 90</strong> (cliff ends)</td><td>The portion earned during the cliff (~24.7% of the vault) unlocks at once.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Day 90 – 365</strong></td><td>The rest unlocks smoothly, second by second, until fully vested.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Day 365</strong></td><td>The entire 10% is claimable.</td></tr></tbody></table>

{% hint style="success" %}
You never lose vested tokens by waiting. Whatever has unlocked stays claimable — claim whenever you like, as often as you like.
{% endhint %}

### Claiming from the vault

1. Open your **profile** (`/me`) and find the **Creator vault** section (also shown on each token's page).
2. It displays the total allocation, what's already claimed, and what's claimable right now.
3. Tap **Claim vault**, confirm, and the unlocked tokens are sent to you.

Before the cliff ends, you'll see a countdown instead — *"cliff ends in X days."*

## One recipient, both streams

By default both the trading fees **and** the creator vault go to the wallet that launched the token. If you'd rather send them to a different wallet or to an X handle, you set that at launch — see [Routing rewards](/using-pumphood/routing-rewards.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.pumphood.fun/using-pumphood/creator-rewards.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
