Polymarket Maker Rebates — Daily Distribution
About this dataset
PolyScalping reconstructs Polymarket's Maker Rebates distribution end-to-end from on-chain Polygon Transfer events on the dedicated Maker rebate distributor wallet. Every payout since the programme launched is captured — 827,125 payouts to 120,438 unique recipients between 2026-01-07 and 2026-06-14.
System contracts (the pUSD contract, USDC.e contract, Disperse, the distributor wallet itself, Polymarket Treasury, V2 exchange contracts, sponsor-rewards contracts) are filtered out before aggregation so the totals reflect real recipients only. Denominated in USDC / pUSD (1:1 USD).

Monthly Maker distribution timeline
Frequently asked
What does this maker rebates distribution page show?
Lifetime, daily, monthly totals for every Polymarket maker rebate payout since the programme launched in January 2026 — aggregated from on-chain Polygon Transfer events emitted by the maker-rebate distributor wallet. The rebate goes to the maker (resting) side of every filled trade on rewards-eligible markets; rate is set per-market by Polymarket as a percentage / basis-point share of the trade's notional value. For wallet rankings, the canonical rate parameters, and the scoring details see the maker leaderboard and Polymarket's rebate programme docs; for the practical playbook see our guide on farming maker rebates.
How is the daily total computed?
We sum every Transfer event from Polymarket's maker-rebate distributor wallet on Polygon, bucketed by the day of the on-chain block timestamp. System addresses (pUSD/USDC.e contracts, Disperse, the distributor wallet itself, treasury, V2 exchange contracts, sponsor-rewards contracts) are filtered out before aggregation. Our totals reflect what actually arrived in maker wallets — we mirror the distribution, we don't recompute Polymarket's rebate formula.
Why is the maker concentration flatter than the Holding Rewards (yield) concentration?
Maker rebates scale with traded volume per market — high-frequency makers across many markets capture rebates broadly, including retail makers earning small amounts on individual markets. Holding Rewards scale linearly with position value in a small curated list of long-term political markets, where Polymarket attracts whale-sized capital, so a handful of large holders dominate. The Concentration block above shows the maker shape; see the Holding Rewards leaderboard for the contrast.
Where does this data come from?
On-chain Transfer events on Polygon, scanned daily by the PolyScalping reward-ledger cron at ~02:00 UTC. We watch each Polymarket distributor wallet directly — no third-party aggregators, no scraping. System addresses (the pUSD contract, USDC.e contract, Disperse.app, distributor wallets themselves, treasury, V2 exchange contracts, sponsor-reward contracts) are filtered out before aggregation so the totals reflect real recipients only.
How often does the data refresh?
Once a day. Maker rebates settle on-chain as trades happen, batched by the distributor wallet via Disperse.app; our cron picks up the new Transfer events at ~02:00 UTC and the page revalidates hourly via Next.js ISR.
