Rules

  • Verified Mini Apps are automatically eligible for Developer Rewards; there is no form to submit.
  • Rewards are paid out weekly based on usage and onchain transactions. The docs state no amounts; the figures in the reward line come from Farcaster's public winner list for the current week (api.farcaster.xyz developer-rewards-winner-history).
  • Verify ownership by placing a cryptographically signed message in the accountAssociation property of your farcaster.json, generated with the Mini App Manifest Tool in Farcaster.
  • The domain you host the manifest on must exactly match the domain you entered in the Manifest Tool. www and the bare domain count as different apps, and the domain can't be changed later.
  • The manifest lives at /.well-known/farcaster.json and needs version ("1"), name, homeUrl and iconUrl.
  • A Mini App is owned by a single Farcaster account; rewards go to the developer that verified it.
  • The rewards page itself needs JavaScript and was not readable by EarnKit; the rules above come from the Mini Apps publishing guide.
