Staking rewards calculator: APR, APY and commission

Estimate staking rewards in tokens from the reward rate, the staking period, how often rewards are added and the platform’s commission.

Yearly yield with compounding (APY)

Results are in tokens: the token’s price can fall more than the rewards earn. Reward rates change, stakes can be locked, and the platform or smart contract can fail.

How it works

Staking rewards are usually quoted as an annual rate (APR). Without compounding, the rewards are amount × APR × days ÷ 365. When rewards are added to the stake — daily, weekly or monthly — they earn rewards too, and the yearly yield (APY) is higher than the APR. A platform’s commission is taken from the rewards, not from your stake.

Example: 1,000 tokens at 5% APR for a year earn 50 tokens without compounding; with rewards added daily, the APY is about 5.13%.

Everything is in tokens

The result is a number of tokens. If the token’s price falls, you can lose money even while your token count grows. The calculator does not use prices.

Risks to check first

Reward rates change; some staking locks your tokens for a period or makes you wait to withdraw; the platform or the smart contract can fail; and some staking products are not allowed or regulated where you live. Read the platform’s terms before you stake.
