Reclaim

When a Loot ends with funds unclaimed, that value is not lost. Contributors can recover it through reclaim.

When you can reclaim

Section titled “When you can reclaim”

Reclaim opens once a Loot reaches Ended: the window closed, all seats were claimed, or the balance ran out. While a Loot is Pending or Active, funds remain committed to the campaign and cannot be withdrawn.

What you get back

Section titled “What you get back”

What you get back depends on the asset type and the on-chain record of your contribution:

  • Native & ERC-20 — your pro-rata share of the remaining balance: your contribution as a fraction of total contributions, applied to whatever remains unclaimed.
  • ERC-721 — the specific NFTs you deposited that are still unclaimed. Tokens claimed during the campaign are gone; the rest return to you.

How to reclaim

Section titled “How to reclaim”
  1. Open the ended Loot from your profile or its page.
  2. Choose Reclaim.
  3. Confirm the transaction. Your share is transferred back to your wallet (you pay only gas).

Reclaim is permissionless: you do not need the creator’s approval. It reads straight from the on-chain ledger, so nobody can recover more than they contributed. It is a one-time action; once you reclaim, your contribution record is settled.

Why it’s safe to fund generously

Section titled “Why it’s safe to fund generously”

Because unclaimed rewards return to contributors, there is no penalty for funding a wide, generous Loot. If fewer participants show up than expected, you simply reclaim the difference when it ends. That lets creators set generous seat counts and budgets without worrying about value getting stuck in a quiet campaign.
