Where does the reward money come from?
Every trade you place through HYPERFLEX routes through our Polymarket builder program. Polymarket pays us ~30% of the ~1% trading fee on every order — that's ~0.3% of your routed volume. We split that 50/50: half stays with HYPERFLEX, half goes back to you and the other traders. No funny money, no marketing budget — pure revenue share from real trading.
How is my share calculated?
The 50% that goes back to traders is split into two pools: an 80% Base Pool (40% of total revenue) distributed pro-rata by your trading volume, and a 20% Flex Pot (10% of revenue) reserved for the top 20% most-engaged users. Your engagement score blends volume (50%), clicks on alpha cards (20%), trade count (20%), and weekly streak (10%). Top engaged users double-dip — they earn their base share AND a flex bonus.
How do I get into the Flex Tier?
The Flex Tier is automatic — the top 20% of traders each week by engagement score qualify. To climb: trade more volume, trade more often (5+ trades/week hits the streak threshold), and click through to the /market/:slug pages from the Alpha Terminal. Watching the ticker without trading earns nothing — only clicks from active traders count. The Flex Bonus is where the real extra upside is.
When do I get paid?
Rewards are calculated every Sunday at 00:05 UTC by an automated cron job that computes the week's builder fees and distributes the pool. USDC is sent directly to your connected Polymarket proxy wallet. Your projected earnings update live throughout the week on this page.
Do I need a HYPERFLEX account?
Yes, you need a free HYPERFLEX account with your Polymarket wallet connected so we can attribute trades to you and send your USDC share. No KYC, no credit card — just an email + your Polymarket address.
How is my tier calculated?
Your Scout → Trader → Shark → Apex → Legend tier is based on your trading volume over the last 30 days. Higher tiers multiply your FLEX Points earnings (1× → 5×) and unlock higher reward percentages. Tiers recalculate automatically every time you trade.
Is there a minimum payout?
The minimum payout is $1 USDC. If your weekly earnings are below $1, they roll over to the next week until the threshold is met. Tiny earnings don't disappear — they accumulate.
