Auto-Claim Guide
Auto-Claim periodically looks for eligible resolved positions and queues redemption or clearing work for your wallet.
Before You Start
- What is Auto-Claim? A background feature that checks for eligible redeemable positions after Polymarket resolution.
- Winning positions: Your payout is claimed into your pUSD tradable balance.
- Losing positions: Shares are cleared from your portfolio (no payout).
Resolution, redeemability, queue processing, provider response, and blockchain confirmation are separate stages, so Auto-Claim is not instant.
How Auto-Claim Works
- A Polymarket market resolves (outcome is determined).
- PolyBot detects your positions in that market are now redeemable.
- If Auto-Claim is enabled:
- Winning positions: Payout is automatically claimed.
- Losing positions: Shares are automatically cleared.
- You receive a notification with the results.
- Winnings appear in your tradable balance.
Enabling Auto-Claim
Auto-Claim is disabled by default. To enable it:
- Go to ⚙️ Settings.
- Find Auto-Claim Positions.
- Tap to toggle ON (✅).
You can also toggle it in Mini App → All Tools → Settings → Automations.
The setting persists for your account. Eligible positions are processed when the background checks can see and redeem them.
What Gets Claimed
Winning Positions 🏆
When you correctly predicted the outcome:
- Your shares are redeemed into your tradable balance.
- Payout = Shares × $1.00.
- pUSD funds are added to your wallet after redemption completes.
Example:
- You hold 100 shares of "Yes" at 40¢.
- Market resolves "Yes" wins.
- Payout: 100 × $1.00 = $100.
Losing Positions 💀
When you predicted incorrectly:
- Your shares become worthless.
- They're cleared from your portfolio.
- No payout (shares were worth $0).
Example:
- You hold 50 shares of "No" at 30¢.
- Market resolves "Yes" wins.
- Your "No" shares are cleared. Payout: $0.

Manual Redemption
You can always redeem positions manually, even with Auto-Claim enabled:
- Go to 📊 Portfolio.
- Find the resolved position (marked as redeemable).
- Tap Redeem for one position, or Claim all when multiple winning positions are available.
- Confirm the redemption.
- If you see Redeem Pending, the wallet-scoped redemption job is queued and you will receive a later status update.
When Auto-Claim Runs
- Auto-Claim checks for redeemable positions periodically.
- There may be a short delay between market resolution and automatic redemption.
- There is no guaranteed completion time. Market resolution, redeemability, indexing, queue backoff, provider health, and blockchain confirmation can all add delay.
Eligibility and position size
Auto-Claim processes positions that satisfy the active service's redeemability and configured eligibility rules. Runtime minimums or provider behavior can change, so a position being resolved does not by itself guarantee immediate processing.
Troubleshooting
Position Not Auto-Claimed
Check these:
- Is Auto-Claim enabled in Settings?
- Has the market actually resolved? (Check Polymarket)
- Allow time for settlement, indexing, and the next worker pass.
Redemption Failed
Occasionally, redemption may fail due to:
- Network congestion
- Temporary API issues
Solution: The system retries automatically. If still not claimed after some time, try manual redemption.
Don't See Payout in Wallet
- Wait for the blockchain/provider status to complete.
- Use 🔄 Refresh on the wallet screen.
- Check the notification for the exact amount claimed.
