How buying, activating and earning work, what everything costs, and how to reach your rewards without us.
Receipts and balances live on Robinhood Chain, not on our servers. If Spend2Stake disappeared tomorrow you could still claim what you are owed straight from the contract. Here is exactly how.
Three things happen in the same transaction: the business is paid, a slice goes into that business's reward pool, and Spend2Stake takes its commission.
You also receive an NFT receipt in your wallet. It is proof you bought the thing, and it is the object that can earn.
An NFT recording one purchase: which business, which product, what you paid, and when. It sits in your wallet like any other NFT. You can hold it, sell it, or ignore it.
Receipts do not expire. The product you bought may have a claim period, but the receipt itself is permanent.
Yes, for now. Your receipts are sent to a wallet address, and rewards are paid to it. Any wallet that works with Ethereum works here, since Robinhood Chain is a standard EVM network.
No, and this matters. A receipt gives you a share of that business's sales through Spend2Stake for as long as you hold it. It is not equity, not shares, and carries no ownership, voting rights, or claim on the business if it is sold. The owner keeps 100% of their company.
It probably is not activated. A receipt earns only once you activate it, which costs 1.50 USDG and is permanent.
Until then its share of the reward pool goes to holders who did activate. That is the whole point of activation, so it is worth doing early if you plan to hold.
We cannot tell you, and anyone who does is guessing. Rewards come from a share of that business's sales. Busy week, more rewards. Quiet week, less. A closed business, nothing.
Your share is your activated receipts as a fraction of all activated receipts at that business. Buy more, hold more, and your share grows. So does everyone else's when they buy, so it moves both ways.
No. They keep accruing until you claim. If you sell the receipt before claiming, the unclaimed balance goes with it to the buyer. Worth remembering before you list one.
The buyer gets everything: the receipt, its activation, and any unclaimed rewards inside it. You stop earning from it the moment it leaves your wallet.
You keep every reward already earned and can still claim it. Nothing further accrues, because there are no more sales to share. Your receipt stays in your wallet and can still be transferred.
Any order you paid for and have not collected must still be honoured within its claim period.
Open the order in your dashboard and show the QR or the six-character code. Staff scan or type it, hand over your order, and confirm. The code works once.
Both sides have to act, which stops anyone marking an order collected without you being there.
How long you have to collect what you bought. The business sets it per product and you see the exact date at checkout. We remind you 30 days and 7 days before it lapses.
If it lapses, the business no longer owes you the product. Your receipt keeps earning regardless. Those are two separate things.
That is allowed and some people do it deliberately, to hold a receipt in a business they like without ever visiting. Activate it and it earns exactly the same as anyone else's. You simply never collect the coffee.
Report it from the order. Be honest about what happened, because the report is weighted by whether you actually bought from that business, and it counts.
What a report does is protect the people who come after you. Enough reports and the listing is suspended, which stops new sales. It does not recover what you paid.
This is why the SpenScore matters more here than on a platform that holds funds. Check it before you buy, especially for anything expensive, and treat an unverified business with no payout history the way you would treat a stranger asking for a bank transfer.
Four things, and none of them is a refund button.
Together those make fraud visible and short-lived. They do not make it impossible, and we would rather say so than imply a safety net that is not there.
Every business has its own settlement contract holding its reward pool. To claim, you
call the claim function on it with your receipt's token IDs.
1. Find the contract. Open the business page and copy its contract address, or look up any of your receipts on the explorer and read the contract it was minted by.
Explorer: https://robinhoodchain.blockscout.com
Search: your wallet address
Look for: the receipt NFTs you hold, and the contract that issued them2. Check what you are owed. On the contract page, open Read Contract and call:
pendingRewards(address holder) → returns the amount in USDG
receiptsOf(address holder) → returns your token IDs at that businessThese are read-only. They cost nothing and need no wallet connection.
3. Claim. Open Write Contract, connect the wallet holding the receipts, and call:
claim(uint256[] tokenIds)Enter your token IDs as a comma-separated list inside square brackets, for example
[1841,1907,2033]. Confirm in your wallet. You pay only the network fee,
which is a few cents in ETH. The USDG lands in your wallet.
Your wallet already shows them, since they are standard NFTs. Or search your address
on robinhoodchain.blockscout.com and open the Tokens tab.
Each receipt records the business, the product, the price and the date on-chain. None of that needs us.
No. Reward money sits in each business's settlement contract, and the only function that moves it out pays the receipt holder. There is no withdraw function for us.
We can freeze a specific receipt if it is reported stolen or is part of a dispute, and that action is public on-chain. We cannot redirect the funds to ourselves.
Contact the business directly. Their details are on their business page, and we publish them precisely so they are not only reachable through us.
Being straight with you: the obligation to hand over a coffee is a real-world one and no contract can enforce it. Your payment went to the business when you made it, so there is nothing held here to return. That is true whether or not this site is running.
Gas on Robinhood Chain is paid in ETH, not USDG, so keep a small amount of ETH in your wallet for transactions.
It is a one-off fee to switch a receipt into an earning state, and it is how the platform is funded on the buyer side. You pay it once and the receipt earns for as long as you hold it.
If a receipt has barely any rewards accrued, claiming may cost more in network fees than you receive. Your dashboard warns you when that is the case.
Report it immediately from your dashboard. The receipts freeze at once, so the thief cannot sell them on or claim their rewards.
The business then decides whether to reimburse you. They can only reimburse the person whose identity was recorded at the time of purchase, which is why doxxed buyers can recover and anonymous ones usually cannot.
Assume not. We never send links asking you to connect a wallet or approve a transaction to receive rewards. Claiming always starts from your own dashboard or directly from the contract.
A claim never requires a token approval. If a prompt asks you to approve spending rather than simply to sign a claim, close it.
Check its SpenScore, and open the breakdown. It shows which documents were verified, whether the founders are publicly identified, whether the business's own social accounts confirm the listing, and whether it has honoured payouts before.
A score capped at 40 means the business's official channels have never confirmed the listing. Treat that as a warning.
No. It is written into your contract when you deploy, so buyers can rely on it. That also means nobody can lower it on you. If you need different terms, close the offering and deploy a new one.
New sales stop immediately. Holders keep every reward already earned and can still claim it. Accrual stops. Any order already paid for still needs fulfilling, and any product inside its claim period must still be honoured.
Receipts stay in buyers' wallets and remain transferable. They simply stop earning.
Digital products settle the moment the purchase confirms. Collections settle when you confirm handover at the counter. Deliveries settle when the buyer confirms, or automatically seven days after delivery if they say nothing.
Your share goes straight to the payout address you set. We never hold it.
