What is Solana rent, and how do you get it back?
To pay for the storage its accounts occupy, Solana charges two years of rent upfront every time a new account is created. For a token account that is about 0.002 SOL. It is a deposit, not a charge — it comes back when the account is closed. Most people never close them.

Where the SOL goes
Every token, NFT or asset you receive creates an account in your wallet, and each one locks up roughly 0.002 SOL. Send the token away or sell it and the account stays behind — empty, and still holding your deposit.
Why it stays stuck
Nothing closes these accounts automatically. The rent sits there indefinitely unless someone deliberately closes each account. A wallet that has traded for a year can easily have dozens of them, which is real money doing nothing.
Reclaiming it
We scan the wallet, identify every token account holding a zero balance, and build one transaction that closes them and returns the rent to you. You see the full list and the exact amount before anything is signed.
What it costs
Only accounts with no assets in them are eligible. We take 10% of what we recover and never more, and if an account holds more than 0.002 SOL you keep at least 0.002 SOL of it — on a standard 0.00204 SOL account that works out to a 1.93% fee.

No SOL? We cover the network fee
Closing an account costs a transaction fee, which a wallet with a zero balance cannot pay — so the SOL stays locked and every other tool asks you to deposit first. For empty wallets we pay that fee ourselves and take 20% of the recovered rent instead of 10%. It is the one thing no other Solana cleaner does. How the gasless mode works.
Burn & close
An account that still holds tokens cannot be closed while the tokens are in it. If those tokens are worthless — airdropped spam, a rugged project, a honeypot — the burn tool destroys them and closes the account in the same transaction.
Burning unwanted tokens
Pick the tokens or NFTs you want gone. We build a transaction that burns them and closes the accounts that held them, reclaiming the rent deposit in the process. Works with SPL tokens, Token-2022, NFTs and compressed NFTs.
Burning is irreversible
Once burned, a token is permanently destroyed and the account is closed. There is no undo and no recovery. Use it for dust and scams, never for anything you might want later. We hide tokens worth more than a few dollars from the burn list by default, but the final check is yours.
Compressed NFTs are the exception: they hold no per-asset rent, so burning one cleans up your wallet but returns no SOL. We charge nothing for it.
Common questions
What is rent on Solana?
Solana charges two years of storage costs upfront when an account is created — about 0.002 SOL for a token account. It is a refundable deposit, returned in full when the account is closed.
Is closing an account safe?
Closing an empty token account is a standard Solana instruction and does not affect any other holding. Keys never leave your wallet, every action needs your signature, and no funds are held by us at any point.
Will I lose tokens?
Rent recovery only touches accounts with a zero balance, so there is nothing in them to lose. Burning does destroy tokens, which is why it is a separate mode with its own confirmation.
How much can I expect to get back?
About 0.002 SOL per empty account, so ten accounts is roughly 0.02 SOL. The scan shows the exact figure for your wallet before you commit to anything.
Can I close accounts if my wallet is empty?
Yes. Below 1,000 lamports we become the transaction fee payer, so you pay no network fee; our cut is 20% of the rent recovered instead of 10%.
