# Claim

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Good to know:** you need a minimum amount of $PPeC to start claiming rewards. This amount changes based on $PPeC demand.

**Security :** The minimum balance amount and the key are ways we authenticate claimers. 
{% endhint %}

## Before claiming rewards

### 1. Make sure that you have the minimum balance amount

![Minimum Balance required on Left (650,000.0 PPeC) / Your balance on Right (0.0 PPeC)](/files/tLnHjyLYcHoP7m0H1rqt)

![Minimum Balance required on Left (650,000.0 PPeC) / Your balance on Right (2,006,000.0 PPeC)](/files/LZvE6C664lkFRUJULVLK)

### 2. Register your address and get a key

> Keys add an extra layer of security to insure that only approved addresses are able to claim rewards.

## SmAC Rewards

Each SmAC comes with its own reward amount. The minimum changes based on $PPeC demand.

1. A reward can only be claimed once.
2. A reward cannot be claimed by the SmAC promoter.
3. Claimers must have the minimum required amount of $PPeC to claim rewards or tag scams.
4. Once you have tagged a SmAC as a scam, you can no longer claim its reward.
5. A community fee is collected for each claim (*for $PPeC burning events*).

> Once you claim the reward, you will be redirected to the promoter's link.

## Bounty SmAC Rewards

Each SmAC has a coffer, and it is funded by the promoter. All rewards come from the coffer until it is empty or until the SmAC cycle expires after 15 days.

Once a SmAC cycle has ended and the SmAC coffer has not been emptied by the promoter after 19 days, it becomes a Bounty SmAC.

1. The reward of a Bounty SmAC is the entire coffer.
2. Rewards can be claimed 19 days after a SmAC expires.
3. A community fee is collected for each Bounty claimed (*for $PPeC burning events*).

Once the coffer is empty, the SmAC is dead *AKA* a Dead SmAC.

### How to claim Bounty rewards

You WILL NOT be redirected to the promoter's link for Bounty SmAC since the SmAC has already expired.

> *This is a network clean up process. All smart ads' $PPeC should be reclaimed on expiration.*

## What is a claimer fee?

A claimer fee is what a claimer must pay to sustain the smart-system or W3LL protocol and it is used to burn $PPeC for the community (*All $PPeC holders*).&#x20;

> *Claimers collected fees are sent to the treasury.*

Claimers can enjoy from 30% to 70% of the reward they claim. This percentage varies based on $PPeC demand.
