"Vesting on Saleium: linear unlocks, optional cliff, and branded claim portals"

Updated Jun 21, 2026, 09:47 AM

Saleium vesting lets you lock tokens and release them to beneficiaries on a linear schedule with an optional cliff, and gives each beneficiary a branded claim page to pull their unlocked tokens over time.

Who this is for: Both project operators who deploy and fund a vesting pool, and participants (beneficiaries) who claim tokens as they unlock.

What is vesting on Saleium?

Vesting releases tokens gradually instead of all at once. The live model is linear vesting with an optional cliff:

  • Linear: tokens unlock smoothly across the schedule.
  • Optional cliff: nothing unlocks until the cliff date, then unlocking begins (linearly from there).

Each beneficiary claims their unlocked balance through a branded claim portal, which you can also embed on your own site with Embed Studio.

For project operators

How do I create a vesting pool?

You set up the pool in the create wizard, then fund it and add beneficiaries. The pool deploys EMPTY, so funding and allocations are a separate, post-deploy step.

  1. Open the vesting create wizard and fill the live fields: Chain, Pool name, Project owner (address), and Vested token (address).
  2. Click "Create vesting pool" and approve the deploy from your wallet.
  3. The pool deploys empty. After it is live, fund the pool with the vested token.
  4. Add your beneficiaries and their allocations after the pool is deployed. Each allocation includes the beneficiary's address, the amount, and the unlock schedule (including any cliff).

Once funded and allocated, beneficiaries can begin claiming as tokens unlock.

Where do beneficiaries claim?

Each pool has a claim page at:

https://saleium.io/vest/{chainId}/{poolAddress}

Replace {chainId} and {poolAddress} with your pool's values. You can embed this claim widget on your own site using Embed Studio, so beneficiaries claim without leaving your domain.

What does vesting cost?

Vesting has two fees:

  • Funding fee: 1% of the tokens, taken when you (the project) fund the vesting pool. It is charged on each funding, so if you top the pool up later, the 1% applies to that funding too.
  • Per-claim fee: a small fee in the network's gas token, paid by the beneficiary each time they claim. It is about $1 worth, or the claim's gas cost, whichever is higher.

Every fee is stamped immutably into your contract at deploy, so the platform can never raise it later; your plan can only lower it. The Plans & Billing page shows the exact rate for your plan, but the standard vesting funding fee is 1%.

Does my plan limit vesting?

Yes. Your plan controls how many vesting strategies you can run and how many recipients each can have. These are plan limits, not on-chain caps.

  • Free: no vesting deploys (airdrop only).
  • Growth ($99/mo): 1 vesting strategy, up to 100 recipients.
  • Pro ($499/mo): 5 vesting strategies, up to 1,000 recipients each.
  • Business ($999/mo): 12 vesting strategies, unlimited recipients.
  • Enterprise (custom): custom limits and bespoke fee terms.

Annual billing saves 33%. Upgrade in-app via checkout (Stripe) for Growth, Pro, and Business. If online checkout is not available, you will be told to contact [email protected]. For Enterprise, book a call at https://saleium.io/enterprise.

Higher plans also remove the "Powered by Saleium" watermark.

For participants

How do I claim my vested tokens?

  1. Open the project's claim page, either the link the project shared or the embedded widget on their site. The direct format is https://saleium.io/vest/{chainId}/{poolAddress}.
  2. Connect the wallet that holds your beneficiary allocation.
  3. Review your unlocked balance. With a cliff, nothing unlocks until the cliff date.
  4. Claim your unlocked tokens. Each claim has a small fee in the network's gas token, about $1 worth or the claim's gas cost, whichever is higher.

You can return any time as more tokens unlock and claim again.

Common issues

  • "My claim page is empty or shows zero": the pool may not be funded yet, your allocation may not be added yet, or you have not reached the cliff. Check with the project operator.
  • "Wrong wallet": connect the exact address the operator set as your beneficiary.
  • "I deployed but nothing is claimable": remember the pool deploys empty. Fund it and add beneficiary allocations before anyone can claim.
  • "Which fee applies to me": projects pay a 1% funding fee when they fund the pool; beneficiaries pay a small per-claim fee in the network's gas token (about $1 worth, or the claim's gas cost, whichever is higher). The Plans & Billing page shows the exact rate for your plan.
