How SteamPaid works

Anyone can launch a coin through SteamPaid and name a Steam player. The coin is an ordinary pump.fun coin: same curve, same trading, same graduation. What is different is where the creator fees end up: a balance in the player's name, withdrawable in SOL once they sign in through Steam.

pump.fun's fee sharing can pay a wallet, but it has no vault for Steam accounts. So every coin names one shareholder, the SteamPaid treasury, and SteamPaid keeps a public ledger of which player each lamport belongs to. The player does not need to know about the coin. If they never sign in, the balance simply waits.

1. 1

   Name the player

   Paste a Steam profile link, a custom URL name or a SteamID64. It is looked up on the Steam Community and pinned to the SteamID64, the one number that never changes. Persona names and custom URLs can change later; the balance stays with the id. Any Steam account works.
2. 2

   Describe the coin

   Name, ticker, image, and an optional website (defaults to the player's page on SteamPaid). The image is squared and resized in your browser and pinned through pump.fun's IPFS endpoint. The coin's description on pump.fun names the player and their SteamID64, so the promise is pinned on IPFS with the coin.
3. 3

   Optional first buy

   Up to 10 SOL, in the same transaction as the create, so you are the first holder.
4. 4

   Sign

   Your wallet signs two transactions together: create_v2 with you as creator (plus the buy), and a fee sharing transaction that calls pump.fun's fee program (createFeeSharingConfig and updateFeeShares) to hand 100% of creator rewards to the SteamPaid treasury. They cannot travel in one transaction: together they exceed Solana's 1,232 byte limit.

Every SteamPaid launch creates the coin's fee sharing config and sets a single shareholder at 100%: the SteamPaid treasury. From then on the bonding curve's creator field points at the config, which is the same record pump.fun's coin page shows under creator rewards, so what pump.fun displays and what the chain does agree. Which player the fees are for is written in the coin's metadata and in the ledger here.

Verified how

The coin page reads the bonding curve and the fee sharing config from chain and checks the treasury is the only shareholder at 100%. Fees are only pushed for coins that pass.

Can it change?

The launcher stays the admin of the split unless they revoke it. The coin page reads the config on every visit and shows the current split, so a change is visible at once and the route is marked unverified.

After graduation

The same config keeps receiving creator fees from the pump.fun AMM pool.

1. 1

   Fees collect

   Every trade pays the creator fee into the coin's vault, a pump.fun program account nobody holds a key to.
2. 2

   Fees are pushed and credited

   Once the vault clears pump.fun's minimum (about 0.001 SOL), SteamPaid's crank sends a distribute transaction that moves the SOL into the treasury. The ledger reads the treasury's own balance change and credits exactly what arrived to the player, with a receipt carrying the transaction and the SOL/USD rate at that moment.
3. 3

   The player signs in through Steam

   On the claim page, with Steam's official OpenID sign in. It happens on steamcommunity.com: SteamPaid never sees a password and only learns the SteamID64.
4. 4

   The player withdraws

   Paste or connect any Solana wallet and take the whole balance in one go. The smallest withdrawal is 0.005 SOL, and SteamPaid pays the network fee, so the full amount arrives. Every withdrawal gets a claim receipt.

Fees generated

What is waiting in the coin's vault now plus every push credited from it, priced in USD

Routed

Every push credited to the player, at the SOL price when the receipt was written

Waiting

The rest, sitting in the coin's vault until the next push

Claimable

Everything credited to the player, less everything withdrawn or being withdrawn

Claimed

Every withdrawal sent to the player's wallet

Receipts

Every push and every withdrawal gets its own numbered receipt on the coin, the profile and Payments

SteamPaid is custodial. pump.fun has no vault a Steam account can open, so credited fees sit in the treasury, a plain Solana wallet whose key the SteamPaid server holds, until the player withdraws them. You are trusting SteamPaid to keep that SOL and pay it out.

What keeps that honest is that everything is public. The treasury address is printed above, and every push into it and every withdrawal out of it is a numbered receipt with its transaction. Add up the claimable balances and compare them with the treasury on Solscan whenever you like.

Double spends

A withdrawal locks its amount in the ledger before anything is sent, so two clicks cannot pay twice

Unclaimed

Waits in the treasury until the player signs in. There is no expiry.

Minimum push

pump.fun's minimum distributable fee, about 0.001 SOL; smaller amounts wait

Withdrawal

The whole balance, from 0.005 SOL, to any Solana wallet

Steam

Not involved in the payout at all; it only vouches for who the player is at sign in

Every figure on the site is the SOL that moved at the price when it moved. Nothing is rounded up, and nothing is taken at any step.

Push receipt

One per push: the SOL moved from the coin's vault into the treasury and credited to the player, the USD at that moment, and the transaction.

Claim receipt

One per withdrawal: the SOL sent from the treasury to the wallet the player chose, and the transaction.

Milestone receipt

One every $20 of creator fees a player's coins have generated, so the lifetime figure is documented on the way.

Numbering

In order, starting at SP-000001

Status

sent with a transaction · queued waiting to be sent · held when something on chain does not add up, with a note

Receipts are numbered, permanent and public. See Payments. Held receipts never count toward a total.

1. 1

   Open the coin on Solscan

   Find the bonding curve account. Its creator field is the sharing config PDA, not a wallet.
2. 2

   Open the fee sharing config

   It is owned by pump.fun's fee program. The shareholder list is one entry at 10,000 bps: the SteamPaid treasury, EyvDSk9Z3jevEqeTa91R9im9kqAms9EmeHuJZb5o3KMb.
3. 3

   Read the coin metadata

   The coin's description on pump.fun, pinned on IPFS at launch, names the player and their SteamID64. The same id is on the player's page here and in their profile link on steamcommunity.com.
4. 4

   Follow the receipts

   Every push receipt links its transaction: the treasury balance rises by the amount on the receipt. Every claim receipt links the transfer from the treasury to the player's wallet.

The crank wallet is public on Solscan. It pays network fees for pushes and withdrawals and never holds creator fees.
