| 11 | +Claiming rewards directly via smart contracts follows this flow: |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +1. **Discover claimable reward epochs** (onchain reads via `RewardManager` + `FlareSystemsManager`). |
| 14 | +2. **Fetch the reward distribution data** for each claimable epoch (`reward-distribution-data-tuples.json`) from GitHub or GitLab. |
| 15 | +3. **Extract your claim tuple + Merkle proof** for the correct `beneficiary` and `claimType`. |
| 16 | +4. **Submit a single onchain transaction** calling `RewardManager.claim(...)` with one or more claim structs. |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +:::warning[Reward claim period] |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +Delegation rewards expire after 25 reward epochs. Make sure to claim before then. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +Learn more about how [signing](/network/fsp/weights-and-signing) and [rewards](/network/fsp/rewarding) work in the FSP. |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +::: |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +## Prerequisites |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +1. **Wallet + gas:** A wallet that can sign transactions on the target network, funded with enough native token to pay gas. |
| 29 | +2. **RPC access:** An RPC endpoint for the chosen network (you can use any RPC listed on the [Network](/network/overview) page). |
| 30 | +3. **Beneficiary address (depends on claim type):** |
| 31 | + - **DIRECT:** `beneficiary` must be the **signing policy address**. |
| 32 | + - **FEE:** `beneficiary` must be the **identity address**. |
| 33 | +4. **Contracts:** Addresses can be found in the [Flare Contract Registry](/network/guides/flare-contracts-registry): |
| 34 | + - [`FlareSystemsManager`](/network/fsp/solidity-reference/IFlareSystemsManager) |
| 35 | + - [`RewardManager`](/network/fsp/solidity-reference/IRewardManager) |
| 36 | +5. **Recipient address:** The address that will receive the rewards (`recipient`). |
| 37 | +6. **Reward distribution data access:** You must be able to fetch per-epoch `reward-distribution-data-tuples.json` from the official distribution locations on GitHub or GitLab. |
| 38 | +7. **Wrap option:** `wrapRewards` is `true` unless explicitly set to `false`. |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +## Step-by-step |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +### 1. Connect to the contracts |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +Instantiate contract clients (ABI + address) for: |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +- [`FlareSystemsManager`](/network/fsp/solidity-reference/IFlareSystemsManager) |
| 47 | +- [`RewardManager`](/network/fsp/solidity-reference/IRewardManager) |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +Example using [ethers v6](https://docs.ethers.org/v6/): |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +```ts |
| 52 | +import { JsonRpcProvider, Wallet, Contract } from "ethers"; |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +// 1) Provider + signer |
| 55 | +const provider = new JsonRpcProvider(process.env.RPC_URL); |
| 56 | +const signer = new Wallet(process.env.CLAIM_EXECUTOR_PRIVATE_KEY!, provider); |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +// 2) Contract instances (ABI omitted here; use your generated ABI or interface) |
| 59 | +const flareSystemsManager = new Contract( |
| 60 | + process.env.FLARE_SYSTEMS_MANAGER_ADDRESS!, |
| 61 | + FLARE_SYSTEMS_MANAGER_ABI, |
| 62 | + provider, |
| 63 | +); |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +const rewardManager = new Contract( |
| 66 | + process.env.REWARD_MANAGER_ADDRESS!, |
| 67 | + REWARD_MANAGER_ABI, |
| 68 | + provider, |
| 69 | +); |
| 70 | +``` |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +### 2. Read the claimable epoch range |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +Call: |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | +1. `startRewardEpochId = RewardManager.getNextClaimableRewardEpochId(beneficiary)` |
| 77 | +2. `[_, endRewardEpochId] = RewardManager.getRewardEpochIdsWithClaimableRewards()` |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +If `endRewardEpochId < startRewardEpochId`, there is nothing to claim. |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +Example: |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +```ts |
| 84 | +const start = await rewardManager.getNextClaimableRewardEpochId(beneficiary); |
| 85 | +const [, end] = await rewardManager.getRewardEpochIdsWithClaimableRewards(); |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +if (end < start) { |
| 88 | + console.log("Nothing claimable for this beneficiary."); |
| 89 | +} |
| 90 | +``` |
| 91 | + |
| 92 | +### 3. Keep only signed epochs |
| 93 | + |
| 94 | +For each `epochId` in `[startRewardEpochId … endRewardEpochId]`, call: |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | +- `rewardsHash = FlareSystemsManager.rewardsHash(epochId)` |
| 97 | + |
| 98 | +Only proceed if `rewardsHash` is **not** `0x000...000` (`bytes32(0)`). |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +Example: |
| 101 | + |
| 102 | +```ts |
| 103 | +const ZERO_BYTES32 = |
| 104 | + "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"; |
| 105 | + |
| 106 | +const signedEpochs: bigint[] = []; |
| 107 | +for (let epochId = start; epochId <= end; epochId++) { |
| 108 | + const rewardsHash = await flareSystemsManager.rewardsHash(epochId); |
| 109 | + if (rewardsHash && rewardsHash !== ZERO_BYTES32) signedEpochs.push(epochId); |
| 110 | +} |
| 111 | +``` |
| 112 | + |
| 113 | +### 4. Fetch reward distribution tuples |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +For each signed epoch, fetch `reward-distribution-data-tuples.json`. |
| 116 | +You fetch **one JSON file per epoch**, using the epoch id in the path. |
| 117 | +If the JSON cannot be fetched or validated, you cannot build a valid Merkle proof for that epoch. |

| 194 | +### 5. Extract your Merkle proof + claim tuple |
| 195 | + |
| 196 | +In the fetched JSON, locate an entry in `rewardClaims` where: |
| 197 | + |
| 198 | +- `address` matches your `beneficiary` (case-insensitive match offchain, exact value used onchain) |
| 199 | +- `claimType` equals your target `claimType` (`0` for DIRECT, `1` for FEE) |
| 200 | + |
| 201 | +Each matching entry provides: |
| 202 | + |
| 203 | +- `merkleProof`: array of hex strings |
| 204 | +- tuple `[id, address, sum, claimType]` |
| 205 | + |
| 206 | +:::note |
| 207 | + |
| 208 | +You do **not** submit the JSON onchain. |
| 209 | +You only extract your `merkleProof` and tuple from `rewardClaims` to build the `claims[]` argument passed to `RewardManager.claim(...)`. |
| 210 | + |
| 211 | +::: |
| 212 | + |
| 213 | +Build a [`RewardClaimWithProof`](/network/fsp/solidity-reference/IRewardManager#rewardclaimwithproof) struct from the JSON: |
| 214 | + |
| 215 | +```ts |
| 216 | +{ |
| 217 | + merkleProof: string[], |
| 218 | + body: { |
| 219 | + rewardEpochId: bigint, // BigInt(id) |
| 220 | + beneficiary: string, // address |
| 221 | + amount: bigint, // BigInt(sum) |
| 222 | + claimType: bigint // BigInt(claimType) |
| 223 | + } |
| 224 | +} |
| 225 | +``` |
| 226 | + |
| 227 | +**Important:** `rewardEpochId` is taken from the tuple's `id`. |
| 228 | + |
| 229 | +Example: |
| 230 | + |
| 231 | +```ts |
| 232 | +type ClaimType = 0 | 1; // DIRECT=0, FEE=1 |
| 233 | +type RewardClaimTuple = [number, string, string, number]; // [id, address, sum, claimType] |
| 234 | +type RewardClaimEntry = [string[], RewardClaimTuple]; // [merkleProof[], tuple] |
| 235 | + |
| 236 | +function extractClaim( |
| 237 | + rewardClaims: RewardClaimEntry[], |
| 238 | + beneficiary: string, |
| 239 | + claimType: ClaimType, |
| 240 | +) { |
| 241 | + const entry = rewardClaims.find(([, tuple]) => { |
| 242 | + const [, address, , ct] = tuple; |
| 243 | + return ( |
| 244 | + address.toLowerCase() === beneficiary.toLowerCase() && ct === claimType |
| 245 | + ); |
| 246 | + }); |
| 247 | + |
| 248 | + if (!entry) return null; |
| 249 | + |
| 250 | + const [merkleProof, [id, address, sum, ct]] = entry; |
| 251 | + return { |
| 252 | + merkleProof, |
| 253 | + body: { |
| 254 | + rewardEpochId: BigInt(id), |
| 255 | + beneficiary: address, |
| 256 | + amount: BigInt(sum), |
| 257 | + claimType: BigInt(ct), |
| 258 | + }, |
| 259 | + }; |
| 260 | +} |
| 261 | +``` |
| 262 | + |
| 263 | +### 6. Submit the claim transaction |
| 264 | + |
| 265 | +Call: |
| 266 | + |
| 267 | +`RewardManager.claim(beneficiary, recipient, lastEpochIdToClaim, wrapRewards, claims)` |
| 268 | + |
| 269 | +Where: |
| 270 | + |
| 271 | +- `beneficiary`: signing policy address (DIRECT) **or** identity address (FEE) |
| 272 | +- `recipient`: the address that should receive rewards |
| 273 | +- `claims`: array of the structs from Step 5 |
| 274 | +- `lastEpochIdToClaim`: set to the **maximum** `body.rewardEpochId` included in `claims` |
| 275 | +- `wrapRewards`: boolean (`true` unless explicitly set to `false`) |
| 276 | + |
| 277 | +Example: |
| 278 | + |
| 279 | +```ts |
| 280 | +if (claims.length === 0) throw new Error("No claims to submit."); |
| 281 | + |
| 282 | +const lastEpochIdToClaim = claims |
| 283 | + .map((c) => c.body.rewardEpochId) |
| 284 | + .reduce((max, v) => (v > max ? v : max)); |
| 285 | + |
| 286 | +const tx = await rewardManager |
| 287 | + .connect(signer) |
| 288 | + .claim(beneficiary, recipient, lastEpochIdToClaim, wrapRewards, claims); |
| 289 | + |
| 290 | +console.log("Submitted:", tx.hash); |
| 291 | +await tx.wait(); |
| 292 | +console.log("Confirmed:", tx.hash); |
| 293 | +``` |
| 294 | + |
| 295 | +## Troubleshooting |
| 296 | + |
| 297 | +<details> |
| 298 | +<summary>T1. No matching tuple found for my address</summary> |
| 299 | + |
| 300 | +- Double-check: |
| 301 | + - Beneficiary address selection (DIRECT uses signing policy address; FEE uses identity address). |
| 302 | + - `claimType` value (DIRECT=0, FEE=1). |
| 303 | + |
| 304 | +</details> |
| 305 | + |
| 306 | +<details> |
| 307 | +<summary>T2. Claim transaction reverts</summary> |
| 308 | + |
| 309 | +- Ensure the Merkle proof and tuple fields (`rewardEpochId`, `beneficiary`, `amount`, `claimType`) are copied exactly from the JSON. |
| 310 | +- Ensure `lastEpochIdToClaim` is `>=` the maximum `rewardEpochId` included in your `claims` array. |
| 311 | +- Ensure the epoch is signed (non-zero `rewardsHash`) and within the claimable range you read onchain. |
| 312 | + |
| 313 | +If a revert reason indicates additional authorization rules (e.g., the caller must be a specific executor), those rules are enforced by the contract and must be satisfied as written in the revert reason; they are not inferable from the claim flow alone. |
| 314 | + |
| 315 | +</details> |
