Minting & On-Chain Items

Minting is what happens when you claim a perk: the item is recorded on the Soneium blockchain as a token you own. This page covers the one decision minting asks of you — which wallet to mint to — and what the app does behind the progress overlay.

The decision: your built-in wallet or an external one​

  • Your Resonance wallet (embedded) — the wallet created for you automatically. It's the default, needs no setup, and the claim goes through with no extra confirmation step. Recommended for almost everyone.
  • An external wallet — a wallet you connected yourself. Minting here pops a confirmation modal first, because the item is permanent, non-transferable, and can't be undone. Choose this only if you specifically want the token in your own wallet.
External-wallet mints are final

When you mint to an external wallet, the app warns you before it proceeds: the item lands there permanently, can't be transferred, and can't be reversed. Minting to your built-in Resonance wallet skips this modal entirely.

Gasless, with a one-time approval​

  • You never pay gas. Resonance sponsors every on-chain transaction through a relayer. The only cost you see is the item's price in RSNC / USDSC / Card (or free) — never a separate gas charge.
  • You approve once, ever. The first time you spend, you grant a one-time infinite approval. After that, every future claim goes straight through — no repeated approval prompt.

What the progress overlay is doing​

When you confirm a claim, a staged overlay walks through these steps in order:

  1. Verifying balance — confirming you can cover the price
  2. Consolidating your balance — pulling together funds across your linked wallets
  3. Authorizing purchase — the on-chain spend
  4. Delivering your goodies! — minting the item to your chosen wallet
  5. Validating delivery — confirming it landed

If a mint ever fails to land, the app offers a free re-delivery — you're never charged twice.

Your items are soulbound​

Items you own are soulbound: they're tied to you and are not transferable, and they're never burned when you sell or move them. When you sell an item on the Bazaar, it's the listing that's retired — the token itself stays put.

Seeing your item on-chain​

After a mint you can open the token on the Soneium block explorer to confirm it landed. Forged Avatars show a Token # link straight to the explorer, plus a "now in your wallet" confirmation. You can review your claimed items any time in the My Perks tab at play.rsnc.network.
