Cardano staking rewards build up in your account's reward balance. They're already staked and earning, but to spend or send them you need to withdraw them to your available balance.
- Withdrawing is instant and costs a small network fee.
- Your first rewards arrive about 15–20 days after you start staking.
Steps
- Click Staking in the left-hand sidebar, then open your Cardano staking dashboard.
- Find the account, click the three dots (⋮), and choose Withdraw rewards.
- Review the amount and fee, and click Withdraw.
- Approve the transaction:
- Hot wallet: enter your NUFI password.
- Hardware wallet: approve on your device, which shows the fee and the amount being withdrawn. Ledger users should have the Cardano app open.
- Click Close. Your rewards now appear in your available balance.
