Redeeming a Cove claim link takes less than a minute. You open the link, connect your wallet, review the amount, and click one button. The Cloak relay submits the transaction to Solana and pays the fee — nothing is deducted from your wallet.
Claim links are single-use. Once the funds are claimed, the link is permanently spent on-chain and cannot be used again. Do not click Claim to my wallet more than once.

Steps

1

Open the link in your browser

Click or paste the claim link you received. It will open a page at cove-cash.vercel.app/claim/…. Make sure your wallet extension (Phantom, Solflare, or Backpack) is installed in this browser before continuing.
2

Connect your wallet

Click Connect Wallet in the top navigation. A modal lists the wallets detected in your browser. Select your wallet and approve the connection in the extension. The page updates to show your wallet address in the redemption card.
3

Review the amount

The redemption card displays the token amount encoded in the link — for example, 1.5 SOL or 10 USDC. Confirm this matches what you expect before proceeding.
4

Click Claim to my wallet

Click the Claim to my wallet button. The page begins preparing the claim while it reconstructs the proof and builds the withdrawal transaction.
5

Sign if prompted

In most cases the Cloak relay submits the transaction on your behalf and no wallet signature is required. If the relay is unavailable, your wallet will prompt you to sign the transaction directly — approve it in the extension.
6

Wait for confirmation

The status panel shows that the transaction is being submitted, then moves to confirming. This typically takes a few seconds while Solana confirms the transaction. Do not close the tab during this step.
7

Claim confirmed — view on Solscan

When the status panel shows Claim confirmed, the funds have arrived in your wallet. The panel displays the full transaction signature and a View on Solscan link so you can verify the on-chain result.
Copy the transaction signature now if you need it for your records. It is the only on-chain reference linking this claim to your wallet.

Troubleshooting

The page shows: “This claim link is missing the blinding factor (r) and cannot be redeemed. It was likely generated by an older version of Cove.”This means the r field is absent from the link payload. The link was generated by an older version of Cove that did not include the blinding factor. The UTXO cannot be recovered from this link. Contact the sender and ask them to generate a new payment using the current version of Cove.
If the transaction fails with a nullifier error, the link has already been spent on-chain. Each claim link is single-use — once the nullifier is recorded on-chain, no further claims are possible from that link. If you did not claim the funds yourself, contact the sender.
If the claim fails with a Claim failed: error message, try the following:
  1. Refresh the page and attempt the claim again — transient RPC errors are common on Solana.
  2. Make sure your wallet is still connected (the page may have lost the connection after a long idle period).
  3. Check status.solana.com for any ongoing network degradation.
If the error persists, copy the full error message and report it at github.com/namedfarouk/cove-cash.
