Before you start
Sign in as the original owner and open your published project. Visitors and team members cannot open your private checklist.
A claim needs a funded reward reservation and the original validated receiving wallet. Existing active projects never need to pay a second publication contribution.
Seven uninterrupted public days and activity on three different sign-in days are the initial claim conditions.
Follow along with Mila & SatsGarden, our fictional example account and project. Screens show example data.
Open your private checklist
Find Your project bonus below the funding panel and choose Open your checklist. Click an item to open the matching action; info icons explain the rules. The donut measures completed requirements, including the activity gates. Sats earned, requested and paid are separate money states.

Follow other makers’ projects
Use Follow project on other published project pages. The target equals the number of active published projects you own: four active projects means following at least four different eligible external projects. Your own projects and projects you are a team member of do not count. Repeatedly following the same project does not increase the count.
Publish a useful project update
Click Publish a project update to open the update editor. Publish actual progress; sending email is optional. Existing published updates on this same project count, including genuine history from before the bonus module. Drafts, future scheduled updates and updates on another project do not count.
Add a roadmap step or two FAQ answers
Complete one of these options: a saved roadmap step, or two complete FAQ questions and answers. They share one 300-sat reward. Doing both improves the page but does not pay this choice group twice.
Show your project with images or a video
Complete one option: at least two distinct gallery images beyond the cover, or a supported project video. This choice group pays 300 sats once. The cover by itself does not fulfil the two-gallery-image option.
Fund another maker or receive one funding
Either make a confirmed eligible donation to another maker’s project or receive one confirmed contribution from another eligible account. Your own and team projects/payments do not count. Unpaid invoices and anonymous payments that cannot be attributed do not complete the step. The normal minimum donation applies.
Complete the initial week and three sign-in days
The timer follows the project’s publication date, not its payment date or the day this module appeared. Keep the project continuously published for seven full days. Leaving published status before the week is complete restarts that unfinished timer on republishing; an achieved week stays complete. Your first authenticated day starts at 1/3. Return while signed in on two more calendar days, using Europe/Amsterdam time. You do not need to sign out; repeated visits on the same day do not add days.

Claim the available amount together
After the initial conditions are complete, choose Claim … sats for your available earned amount. Confirm your current password and the requested authenticator/recovery check if two-factor authentication is enabled. The payout remains bound to the original owner and recorded receiving wallet; this dialog cannot redirect it. Each paid step is claimable once.

Wait for payout confirmation
A queued or requested claim is not yet a confirmed payment. The system processes it and sends a notice after confirmation. Keep the existing request if it is still processing; do not create repeated requests or pay another publication contribution. A temporarily unavailable provider or insufficient funded reserve can hold a claim.
Claim later steps without another week
After the first seven-day and three-day conditions have been met, newly completed valid steps become claimable immediately. Previously requested steps remain reserved and cannot be claimed twice. Optional reminders are combined into at most one weekly digest per owner; switch Weekly project bonus reminder off in Email preferences if you prefer.
You’re all set when…
You understand which seven steps pay and which conditions unlock claims.
You can distinguish checklist progress, earned sats, requested sats and confirmed payout.
