# Claim and Compound

> Collect your earned fees and compound your returns

Don't let your fees sit idle. Claim regularly and compound to maximize your long-term returns.

## What You'll Unlock

* One-click fee claiming that auto-swaps to SOL
* Compounding strategy for accelerated growth
* Full control over when and how you collect

## Claim Your Fees

Your earned fees accumulate as you provide liquidity. Claim them without closing your position.

### How to Claim

1. Go to your Portfolio
2. Select the position with accumulated fees
3. Click **Claim Fees**
4. Fees auto-swap to SOL and deposit instantly

### When to Claim

**Claim frequently when:**

* Gas costs are low relative to fees
* You want to reinvest immediately
* Market volatility is high (lock in gains)

**Let fees accumulate when:**

* Fees are small relative to gas costs
* You're in a stable, long-term position
* You prefer less active management

## Compounding Strategy

Claimed fees can be reinvested to compound your returns:

1. Claim fees from profitable positions
2. Add claimed SOL to existing positions or new opportunities
3. Repeat to accelerate growth

**The math:** Regular compounding can significantly increase returns over time compared to leaving fees unclaimed.
