How to stake, unstake, and claim rewards on a Saleium staking pool

Updated Jun 21, 2026, 09:47 AM

To take part in a Saleium staking pool you connect your wallet on the pool's page or widget, stake the stake token, wait out any lock period, then unstake and claim your rewards.

Who this is for: Both. Participants who want to stake into a live pool, and operators who deploy and fund the pool that participants stake into.

How do I stake into a Saleium pool?

If you have the link or widget for a live staking pool, here is the full flow.

Open the pool page (hosted at https://saleium.io/stake/{chainId}/{poolAddress}) or the embedded widget on the project's site.
Connect your wallet. Make sure your wallet is on the same chain the pool was deployed on.
Enter the amount of the stake token you want to stake.
Approve the stake token if your wallet prompts you to (this is a one-time token approval), then confirm the stake transaction.
Once the transaction confirms, your stake is active and starts earning at the pool's fixed APR.

You need enough of the stake token in your wallet, plus a little native gas for the transaction.

What is the lock period?

Each pool has a lock period set by the operator, measured in days. A lock period of 0 means the pool is flexible with no lock, so you can unstake at any time. If the lock period is greater than 0, you must wait until it has passed before you can unstake. Check the pool page to see the lock period for the specific pool you are using.

How do I unstake and claim my rewards?

Return to the same pool page or widget and connect the wallet you staked with.
If the pool has a lock period, confirm it has elapsed.
Unstake your tokens and claim your rewards, then confirm the transaction in your wallet.

Rewards are paid in the reward token, which is always a different token from the stake token. The APR is fixed, so your reward accrual follows the rate the operator set.

For project operators

You can create a fixed-APR staking pool from your Saleium dashboard. Staking is available on every paid plan (Growth and up). It is not available on the Free plan.

Open the staking creator and fill in the fields: Chain, Pool name, Project owner (address), Stake token (address), Reward token (address, which must be different from the stake token), APR (%), and Lock period in days (use 0 for a flexible pool with no lock).
Review the deploy details. The platform fee is 5% of rewards (lower on a paid plan), taken from reward payouts as they are claimed.
Click "Create staking pool" and approve the deploy transaction from your wallet.
After deploy, fund the pool's reward budget. Rewards are escrowed and paid out from that budget, so keep it funded. If it runs low, reward claims can fail.
Share the pool. Embed it with Embed Studio, or share the hosted page at https://saleium.io/stake/{chainId}/{poolAddress}.

What is the platform fee for staking?

The staking platform fee is 5% of rewards, taken from reward payouts as they are claimed. It does not touch the staked principal. Your plan lowers it: Growth pays 4.75%, Pro pays 4.5%, and Business pays 3.75% (Free pays the full 5%).

The fee is stamped immutably when the pool is deployed: the platform can never raise it later, and your plan can only lower it. Moving to a higher plan lowers the fee that applies to pools you deploy after the change. Your exact per-plan rate is on the Plans and Billing page.

Common issues

Claim transaction fails or pays nothing. The pool's reward budget may be low or empty. Reward claims are paid from the escrowed budget, so the operator needs to top it up. Operators: fund the reward budget and keep it funded.
You cannot unstake yet. The pool likely has a lock period that has not elapsed. Wait until the lock period (in days) has passed, then try again.
Wrong network. Connect your wallet on the same chain the pool was deployed on, then retry.
Reward token equals stake token. Operators: the reward token address must be different from the stake token address, or the pool will not deploy.
