What this is: a plain-language summary of the updated CBTC reward-share terms for signed venues. It is not the contract — your agreement with BitSafe governs. Your account executive will walk you through it and send the updated agreement for signature.
</aside>
One simple split: you earn 50% of the Featured App rewards your CBTC activity generates, net of DA fees — with volume tiers to 65%+ to follow.
No netting formulas, no per-deal amendments. One clean structure for every venue, so you always know exactly what a transaction earns you.
Today: a flat 50% for every venue. Volume tiers that raise your share — up to 65% — will be introduced after your first weeks live: we'll establish your venue's real transaction baseline first, then set the specific gates together with you, calibrated to your business.
| Tier | Reward share | Volume gate |
|---|---|---|
| T0 (baseline) | 50% | Everyone, from day one |
| T1–T3 (preview) | 55% → 65%+ | Set together after your baseline period |
Mechanics:
| Before | Now | |
|---|---|---|
| Structure | Varied — amendments, netting formulas in some deals | One simple 50% split, net of DA fees, same for everyone |
| Upside | Case-by-case | Volume tiers to 65%, introduced after a baseline period and set with you |
| Market making | Mixed — BitSafe carried some MM retainers | You own your MM relationship and its costs; BitSafe supports with intros and CBTC inventory loans where it makes sense |
Canton's CIP-104 will change how network rewards work. Rather than build complexity against a moving target, we're standardizing everyone on this simple, proven structure today — it pays the same or better than the formula-based models under current market conditions. As CIP-104 lands, we'll bring you an updated model; any change will be proposed to you before it takes effect.
