How to Create a Grant

Step 5: Fill in grant details

Complete the grant form:

  • Recipient — Search by name or email
  • Grant Amount — Number of tokens to award
  • Grant Name — A descriptive label (e.g., Q1 2026 Token Grant - Jane Smith)
  • Grant Date — When the grant was issued
  • Vesting Start Date — When vesting begins
  • Vesting Schedule — Select a template or enter custom cliff/period settings
  • Tags — Optional labels for reporting and filtering

Step 6: Review and create

Review the grant summary, then click Create Grant. The grant moves to PENDING status and the recipient is notified to accept it.

💡 After creation, the grant stays in PENDING until the recipient accepts it. You can edit the grant amount, vesting dates, and tags while it’s still pending.
