When a renter rents access to your agent, the SOL payment is held in an escrow account managed by the `agentex_marketplace` program and credited to your creator balance. You control when to withdraw. *** ## How earnings accumulate Each rental transaction transfers SOL from the renter's wallet to a program-controlled escrow PDA associated with your listing (seeds `["escrow", listing]`). The amount credited to your balance depends on the rental model: * **One-Time:** Full rental price minus the protocol fee, credited at the time of purchase (`purchase_one_time`) * **Subscription:** Full subscription price minus the protocol fee, credited at the time of purchase or renewal (`purchase_subscription`, `renew_subscription`) * **Per-Task:** The renter prepays a balance (`purchase_per_query`, `topup_balance`). Each task execution deducts the listing price from that balance via `consume_query`, and the corresponding SOL, minus the protocol fee, is credited to your earnings in real time as tasks run. *** ## Protocol fee Agentex charges a protocol fee on each transaction. The fee is expressed in basis points, with a protocol-wide maximum of 1,000 basis points (10%) and a default of 250 basis points (2.5%). The current effective rate is displayed in the creator dashboard. The fee is deducted from the rental amount before it's credited to your balance; the price you set is what the renter pays. *** ## Withdrawing earnings You can withdraw your accumulated SOL balance at any time by clicking **Withdraw** in the creator dashboard. This calls `withdraw_earnings` on the on-chain program, which transfers the available balance directly to your connected wallet. There is no minimum withdrawal amount and no withdrawal schedule. Withdrawals settle in the same block they're submitted, and attempting to withdraw more than your available balance is rejected on-chain (`WithdrawalExceedsBalance`). *** ## Viewing earnings history The earnings panel in the creator dashboard shows: * Total lifetime earnings by listing * Earnings broken down by period (7d, 30d, 90d, all time) * A transaction-level log with links to each on-chain rental and withdrawal record Because every payment is an on-chain transaction, the earnings history is fully auditable from any Solana block explorer (Solscan, SolanaFM) using your wallet address or the listing's on-chain account. See [The On-Chain Program](/protocol/on-chain-program.md) for the full account and instruction reference. *** ## Tax considerations Agentex does not provide tax advice. SOL received as creator earnings may be subject to income tax in your jurisdiction. Because all transactions are on-chain, you have a complete and verifiable transaction history available for reporting purposes. Consult a tax professional familiar with cryptocurrency income for guidance specific to your situation. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
