Collect your winnings
When a prediction market resolves, the outcome is final. If you held the winning side, each share is now worth exactly$1.00. Redeeming converts those shares into USDC in your wallet.
How redemption works
Market resolves
Polymarket’s oracle determines the outcome. Your position card updates with a resolution badge — green for wins, red for losses.
Redeem button appears
On winning positions, a Redeem Winnings button replaces the sell button. The card shows exactly how many shares you hold and the USDC value.
Click to redeem
One click. Your winning shares are burned on Polymarket’s contract and USDC.e is released to your Polygon wallet.
The math
It’s straightforward:| Bought | Price Paid | Shares | If You Win |
|---|---|---|---|
| YES | $0.35/share | 100 | 100 × $1.00 = $100 |
| YES | $0.72/share | 50 | 50 × $1.00 = $50 |
| NO | $0.20/share | 200 | 200 × $1.00 = $200 |
Losing shares are worth
$0.00. They just disappear from your portfolio after resolution. No action needed on your end.What if I don’t redeem?
Do winnings expire?
Do winnings expire?
No. Winning shares sit on the Polymarket contract until you redeem them. There’s no deadline. But there’s also no reason to wait — that’s capital sitting idle.
