Get paid in USDC, straight to your wallet.
Every validated report is paid in USDC on Arbitrum to the wallet you link. Linking it takes one signature and costs nothing. It gives us no access to your wallet, and we can't make transactions or withdraw your money.
USDC, on-chain, to your wallet.

- Nothing. Nothing to claim or approve
- Proof
- The bot sends you the transaction link
Three reasons we ask
It's where your rewards go
There is no TapQA balance to withdraw. When a report is validated, the payout goes to this address in USDC on Arbitrum, and the bot sends you the transaction link.
It's your sign-up
The signature proves the wallet is yours, so nobody can redirect your rewards. One wallet per tester: an address already linked to someone else is refused.
It costs nothing
Signing a message is free and moves nothing. You pay no gas and approve no tokens.
What we can and can't do
TapQA can
- send your rewards to this address
- see the address you linked
TapQA can't
- access your wallet or anything in it
- make, sign or approve transactions for you
- withdraw or move your money
- see your recovery phrase or private key
The signature only proves the address is yours. Taking money out of a wallet needs its private key, and the key never leaves your wallet. Anyone can look up any address on a block explorer; linking it gives us nothing beyond that.
The whole message, line by line
Your wallet shows exactly this text. If it shows anything else, reject it.

- TapQA
- Who is asking.
- Link payout
- What the signature is for: this wallet receives your rewards.
- Tester
- Your TapQA number.
- Nonce
- A one-time code, so the signature can't be reused.
- Issued
- When the request was made. It works for 10 minutes; after that, open the wallet page again.
Stop if your wallet asks for any of these
- sending funds or paying a fee
- a token approval, or "set approval for all"
- your recovery phrase or private key
TapQA never asks for these. Reject the request and write to @tapqa_bot.
People ask
When do I get paid?
After a reviewer validates your report, it goes into the next payout run. Each run sends one transfer per tester, and the bot messages you the transaction link.
Which wallet should I use?
Bron is recommended: you test the Bron app anyway, and it holds USDC on Arbitrum. Any EVM wallet works too, such as MetaMask, Trust, Rainbow or Rabby.
Do I need crypto in the wallet first?
No. Linking is free, and an empty wallet is fine.
Which network do payouts use?
USDC on Arbitrum One. Your address is the same on every EVM network, so there is nothing to switch.
Can I change the wallet later?
Yes. In TapQA open Account, tap Change payout wallet and sign with the new one. Payouts go to the wallet linked when they are sent.
Who sees my address?
Only the TapQA team, usually shortened like 0x51a0…9c3e. Testers never see each other's wallets.
It says the address is already linked
That wallet belongs to another TapQA account. Link a different wallet, or write to @tapqa_bot if you think it's a mistake.
