This document explains how validators receive rewards.

Reward System

In Infra RelayChain, validators receive a portion of the transaction fees generated in each chain as a reward. Each time a reward is generated, the relay chain can confirm the following event. This event provides information about when (era) and how much reward was generated for which token (asset).

Receiving Validator Rewards

If it is confirmed that a validator can receive a reward through the above process, you can generate a transaction to actually receive the reward.

1. Access the Portal.

2. Go to Developer > Extrinsic > Submission.

3. Select claim in the validatorManagement palette.

4. Enter the appropriate value and submit the transaction.

A validator can only receive a reward for one type of system token ID in one extrinsic. If a validator can receive multiple types of tokens, you need to generate multiple extrinsics.
