# Winning & Claiming

A prize is assigned to your wallet the moment a round is drawn, but it does not move until you claim it. Claiming is a transaction you sign yourself, from the wallet that won.

## Finding out you won

* **The StarBurst landing page** shows a pop-up on your next visit listing every unclaimed prize you hold, across every pool.
* **The pool page** shows a **Your wins** section with each prize, its round, and a claim button.
* **The round's winners list** shows every winner and prize for that round, marked claimed or unclaimed.

There are no email or push notifications for a win. Checking the site after a round draws is the reliable way.

## Claiming

<table><thead><tr><th width="230">What you won</th><th>How to claim it</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>One or more individual NFTs in a round</td><td><strong>Claim</strong> on that round sweeps every unclaimed prize you hold in it, in one transaction.</td></tr><tr><td>A pack</td><td><strong>Claim pack</strong>. Packs are claimed separately from individual prizes, and each pack is its own claim.</td></tr><tr><td>Wins across several pools</td><td><strong>Claim all</strong> in the landing-page pop-up walks through them.</td></tr></tbody></table>

Claiming transfers the NFTs to your wallet and pays out any coins the pack carried. You pay only the Cosmos Hub transaction fee.

## After claiming

The NFTs are ordinary NFTs in your wallet, so you can hold, transfer, list, or auction them like anything else. They appear on your Stargaze profile at `stargaze.zone/p/<your address>`.

## Claim rules

* **There is no claim deadline.** An unclaimed prize stays assigned to you.
* **Only the winning wallet can claim.** Prizes cannot be redirected to another address, and the creator cannot take a prize back once it is won. In the rare case where the Stargaze team has to cancel and re-run a draw, only prizes that are still unclaimed return to the vault.
* **Claiming is paused while a pool is paused.** If a creator has paused their pool, claims resume when they unpause it.
* **A pool admin may claim on a winner's behalf.** The prize still goes to the winner's address. This exists only so a creator can push out prizes people have not collected.

## Sharing a win

Drawn prizes have a **Share on X** link that posts a card showing what you won and which pool it came from.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

```
GET https://docs.stargaze.zone/starburst/winning-and-claiming.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
