🎁 Automatic Reward Handling

Several integrated venues periodically offer reward tokens on top of base lending interest, and AggreLend’s handling is deliberately straightforward:

  • The program automatically redeems those rewards.
  • Converts them into your deposit token at a conservative quote.
  • Re-supplies them to your position.

This ensures:

  • Your balances compound in the same asset you originally deposited.
  • Your dashboard remains a single source of truth.

The process runs on a regular cadence and requires no claiming, swapping, or timing transactions, which reduces operational friction and keeps realized earnings close to the rate shown in the interface.

💡 Key Insight: Rewards are seamlessly handled in the background so balances grow automatically — no manual actions required.


How Rewards Affect APY

Because rewards can vary by token, market family, or venue schedule, the interface shows a single effective APY that:

  • Includes the prevailing reward uplift during its active window.
  • Naturally returns to baseline when the reward window ends.

This keeps the presentation clean and honest by avoiding a separate rewards table or extra numbers for users to mentally combine.

This also means that when a venue pauses or changes incentives, the on-screen APY updates immediately rather than waiting for a manual refresh.

📈 Practical Outcome: The APY displayed always matches current conditions — including any active rewards.

⚠️

Please Note: AggreLend does not currently provide an option to keep rewards in the original reward token (for example, JTO, or ZEUS). For the sake of keeping the app simple and beginner friendly, rewards are converted into the deposit token and compounded automatically.
