Solana Wallet & Reclaim SOL FAQ
Get clear answers about reclaiming SOL from empty token accounts, Solana account rent, wallet cleanup, token burning, security, fees, and how Your Free SOL works.
Getting Started
Your Free SOL is a set of non-custodial tools for managing eligible Solana wallet accounts and assets. It can help you identify reclaimable SOL from eligible token accounts, clean up your wallet, burn unwanted tokens, and access other supported wallet utilities.
Connect your wallet, let Your Free SOL scan for eligible token accounts, review the accounts and estimated reclaimable SOL, select what you want to process, and approve the transaction in your wallet. Any SOL successfully reclaimed is sent back to your wallet.
Solana accounts need to hold enough SOL to remain rent-exempt. Token accounts therefore contain a small amount of SOL in addition to any tokens they may hold. When an eligible token account is closed, the SOL stored in that account can be returned to a destination wallet.
A token balance and an account's SOL balance are separate. Even after a token balance reaches zero, the token account may remain open and continue to hold the SOL that was originally used to make the account rent-exempt.
The amount depends on the accounts in your wallet. Different account types may hold different amounts of SOL, so the most accurate way to check is to scan your wallet and review the amount shown before approving any transaction.
No additional software is required beyond a compatible Solana wallet. Your Free SOL works through your browser and asks your wallet to approve transactions when an on-chain action is required.
Yes. Your Free SOL is non-custodial. Your wallet remains under your control, and on-chain actions require your approval through your wallet.
Yes. You should review the accounts, assets, estimated amounts, and transaction details shown by Your Free SOL and your wallet before approving any transaction.
Reclaim SOL
Only accounts that meet the requirements of the relevant Solana token program can be closed. In most cases, a standard token account must have no remaining token balance and you must have the required authority to close it.
Yes. You should review the eligible accounts found in your wallet and select only the accounts you want to process.
When an eligible account is successfully closed, the reclaimable SOL from that account is sent to the destination specified in the transaction, normally your connected wallet.
A standard token account generally cannot be closed while it still contains tokens. Depending on what you want to do, you may need to keep the account, transfer the tokens, or intentionally burn supported unwanted tokens before the account can be closed.
An account may be ineligible because it still contains assets, uses a different authority, has restrictions or extensions, belongs to an unsupported account type, or does not meet the requirements for closing.
In many cases, yes. If you later receive the same token again, a suitable token account can usually be created again when needed.
No. Closing an empty token account removes that account, not the token mint or the token project. It does not affect tokens held by other wallets.
No. Your main wallet address remains unchanged. Closing an eligible token account only affects the specific token account included in the transaction.
Wallet Cleanup
Wallet cleanup means reviewing unnecessary or unwanted token-related accounts and assets in your wallet and choosing appropriate actions, such as closing eligible empty accounts or burning unwanted tokens.
Solana tokens are commonly stored in separate token accounts. Over time, trading, receiving tokens, using apps, and interacting with different token programs can leave many token accounts associated with the same wallet.
Hiding usually changes only how an asset appears in a wallet interface. Burning permanently destroys a specified token amount on-chain. Closing removes an eligible token account and returns its remaining SOL balance to the transaction's destination.
Depending on the token and account type, you may be able to hide the token in your wallet interface or permanently burn it. Always review the token carefully before taking an irreversible action.
Only the accounts and assets included in the transaction should be affected. Your main wallet address and unrelated accounts remain separate, which is why reviewing the transaction before approval is important.
It depends on the action. Some accounts can be recreated later, but token burning is permanent and cannot be reversed. Always confirm exactly what action is being performed before signing.
There is no required schedule. You can review your wallet whenever you want to reduce clutter, remove unwanted assets, or check whether eligible token accounts contain reclaimable SOL.
Yes. Solana supports different token programs and account configurations. Eligibility for actions such as burning or closing can depend on the program, account settings, authorities, and extensions involved.
Burn Tokens
Burning permanently removes a specified amount of tokens from circulation by executing an on-chain burn instruction. Once the burn is confirmed, those tokens cannot be restored.
Burning and reclaiming SOL are separate actions. Burning reduces or removes the token balance. If the token account later becomes eligible to close, closing that account can return the SOL stored in it.
No. Token burning is an irreversible on-chain action. You should only burn tokens after confirming that you no longer want them.
If the token and account are compatible with the supported burn process, you may choose to burn unwanted tokens. Carefully verify the token before approving the transaction because burning cannot be undone.
Burning the remaining token balance does not always close the token account automatically. If the account becomes empty and meets the required conditions, it may then be eligible to close separately.
No. Hiding usually changes only what you see in a wallet interface. Burning changes the blockchain state and permanently destroys the selected token amount.
No. A burn transaction affects only the token amount included in that transaction. It does not directly remove tokens held by other wallets.
Pump.fun Rewards
Connect your wallet and use the Pump.fun rewards tool to check for reward balances and claim options currently supported by Your Free SOL.
After connecting your wallet, review any supported rewards detected for your address, select the available claim action, and approve the required transaction in your wallet.
A reward may not appear if it is not currently claimable, is associated with a different wallet, has already been claimed, is not supported by the current tool, or cannot be detected from the available on-chain data.
Some rewards are distributed as tokens rather than native SOL. Receiving those assets may require your wallet to have an appropriate token account for that token.
Wrapped SOL, or WSOL, is a token representation of SOL that can interact with Solana token programs. It is still related to SOL but is held and handled through a token account.
Yes. You should review the detected reward, destination accounts, and transaction details before approving any claim transaction in your wallet.
No. Connecting a wallet allows the site to read relevant public wallet information. An on-chain claim requires a separate transaction that you approve through your wallet.
Fees
Service fees help support the development, infrastructure, maintenance, security work, and ongoing operation of Your Free SOL.
The applicable fee is calculated according to the current pricing rules for the action you are performing. You should review the amount shown by the product before approving the transaction.
When a service fee applies, the relevant product flow should show the available transaction amounts or fee information before you approve the transaction in your wallet.
Solana transactions can require network fees in addition to any service fee charged by Your Free SOL. Network fees are paid for processing transactions on Solana and are separate from the service fee.
A service fee should relate to the specific product action being performed. Review the transaction and product summary before signing so you understand what will happen and what amounts are involved.
Please refer to the Fees page and the amount displayed within the relevant product flow for the current pricing information.
Security
Yes. Your Free SOL is designed to operate without taking custody of your wallet. Transactions that change blockchain state require approval through your connected wallet.
No. Your private key and seed phrase should remain inside your wallet and should never be entered into Your Free SOL. Never share them with any website or person.
No. Connecting a wallet normally allows a site to view your public wallet address and request actions. Moving assets or changing on-chain accounts requires transaction approval from your wallet.
Review the action being requested, the accounts involved, the assets and amounts shown, and any warnings provided by your wallet. Reject the transaction if anything looks unexpected.
Yes. A transaction request does not take effect simply because it appears in your wallet. You can reject it instead of signing if you do not want to proceed.
Check the domain carefully before connecting your wallet or approving a transaction. The official website is yourfreesol.com. Be cautious of lookalike domains, unsolicited links, and messages asking for your seed phrase or private key.
Yes. Confirmed Solana transactions are recorded on-chain and can be inspected using a Solana blockchain explorer with the transaction signature.
Wallets may display warnings when they detect unfamiliar applications, transaction instructions, permissions, or other risk signals. Always read the warning carefully and review the transaction instead of ignoring it.
How It Works
Your public wallet address can be used to inspect relevant on-chain information and identify supported actions. Connecting alone does not authorize Your Free SOL to move your assets.
The application reads public Solana account data associated with your wallet and checks whether supported accounts meet the conditions required for the selected action.
No. Reading public wallet and account data does not change blockchain state. Changes occur only when you approve and submit an on-chain transaction.
Actions such as closing an account, burning tokens, or claiming rewards modify blockchain state. Your wallet therefore needs to authorize the transaction before it can be submitted.
The signed transaction is submitted to Solana for processing. After confirmation, the resulting account, token, or balance changes can be verified on-chain.
A failed transaction does not complete the requested on-chain state changes. You can review the error, confirm your wallet and account conditions, and decide whether to try again.
Solana Basics
A Solana token account is an on-chain account used to hold a specific token for an owner. A single wallet can therefore be associated with many separate token accounts.
An Associated Token Account, often called an ATA, is a token account derived using a standard convention for a specific wallet owner and token mint. It provides a predictable account for holding that token.
SPL Token commonly refers to Solana's token standards and token programs used to create and manage fungible tokens and other tokenized assets.
Token-2022 is a newer Solana token program that supports additional token features and extensions beyond the original token program. Those extensions can affect how certain token accounts behave.
Solana accounts generally maintain a minimum SOL balance so they can remain rent-exempt. That balance stays in the account and may be recoverable when an eligible account is closed.
A lamport is the smallest unit of SOL. One SOL is equal to one billion lamports.
A token account can remain on-chain after its token balance reaches zero. Closing it is a separate blockchain instruction that must meet the account's requirements and be authorized appropriately.
A close authority is the address permitted to authorize the closing of a token account. Depending on how an account is configured, the owner or another designated authority may control this permission.
Native SOL is the standard asset used by Solana for balances and transaction fees. Wrapped SOL represents SOL inside a token account so it can interact with token-program-based applications.
No. Account size can vary depending on the token program and any extensions or additional data the account uses. As a result, the SOL required for rent exemption can also vary.
