# Deposits & Withdrawals ## Deposit Rewards In order to increase your in-game purchasing power, you can buy $AIP tokens on Aerodrome (Base L2) and top-up your PettBro's inventory. To do that, you'll need to transfer the tokens to the Telegram's hosted wallet or connected wallet (for more details revert [here](https://docs.pett.ai/overview/in-app-wallet)) and only then deposit on Pett.ai. Notwhistanding, depositing $AIP in-game awards your companion with some extra experience points! The amount of XP earned increases with the amount of $AIP deposited, but this relationship follows a square root function, meaning the rewards grow at a decreasing rate as the deposit amount increases. $$ \text{XP } (\text{$AIP})= \sqrt{15.59\times\text{$AIP}\_{deposited}} $$ For example, depositing 100 units of $AIP would yield approximately 39.47 XP, increasing your companion's level. {% hint style="danger" %} The team has employed some safety measures to avoid looped deposits. Any attempts to exploit loopholes or manipulate this mechanism will result in a loss of XP. {% endhint %} ## AIP Withdrawals
Step-by-Step Guide to Withdrawing $AIP 1\. Connect Your Wallet: \- Navigate to the wallet section in Pett.ai. \- Click "Connect Wallet" and select your wallet provider (e.g., MetaMask). \- Follow the prompts to complete the connection. 2\. Navigate to the Withdrawal Section: \- Once your wallet is connected, go to the withdrawal section within the game. 3\. Enter Withdrawal Details: \- Enter the amount of $AIP you wish to withdraw. 4\. Confirm the Transaction: \- Double-check all details to ensure accuracy. \- Confirm the transaction. Remember, withdrawals cannot be canceled once initiated. 5\. Consider Withdrawal Slashing: \- Be aware that in-game earned $AIP tokens are subject to a withdrawal slash function. The slash rate decreases based on your PettBro's level and the time elapsed since initiating a withdrawal. Higher levels and longer holding periods result in lower slash rates. 6\. Jump Queue Option: \- If you want to expedite your withdrawal, you can choose the "Jump Queue" option. This feature allows you to prioritize your transaction for a faster processing time. Be aware that this may incur additional fees. 7\. Check Gas Fees: \- Ensure you have sufficient ETH for gas fees, which are minimal on the Base network. Check the estimated fee when initiating a withdrawal. 8\. Complete the Withdrawal: \- Once confirmed, the $AIP tokens will be transferred to your connected wallet.
#### Withdrawal Handling Rules * **Dead pets with available withdrawals** * If a pet dies while having **available withdrawals**, those withdrawals are **cleared daily**. * You have until **12:00 AM (same day)** to **revive the pet**. * If the pet is not revived by this time, the available withdrawals are **deleted**. * **Refund of long-pending available withdrawals** * Any withdrawal that remains **available (unqueued)** for **15 consecutive days** is **automatically refunded**. * Once refunded, the withdrawal is **invalidated**, and the withdrawal process must be **started again**. #### Withdrawal Constraints **Eligibility** * A pet **must be at least level 20** to request a withdrawal. * Pets below level 20 **cannot initiate withdrawals** under any circumstance. **Withdrawal Limits per Level** The **maximum amount of $AIP per withdrawal transaction** is determined by the pet’s level: * **Level 20** → up to **15,000 $AIP** * **Level 35** → up to **30,000 $AIP** * **Level 50** → up to **50,000 $AIP** * **Level 75** → up to **75,000 $AIP** > Limits apply **per transaction**, not per day or per account. **Active Withdrawal Cap** * Each pet can have **a maximum of 5 active withdrawals** at any given time. * Once the limit is reached, **no additional withdrawal requests** can be created until one is completed, refunded, or deleted. ### Jump Queue The **Jump Queue** system allows players to speed up their withdrawals by spending a **percentage of their $AIP amount** to skip a **percentage of the queue** ahead of them. Instead of waiting in line, players can choose to move up faster, ensuring quicker access to their funds while keeping the system fair and balanced. {% hint style="info" %} The **Jump Queue** feature has been introduced on February 25, 2025. {% endhint %} > [Dive deeper into the Jump Queue Section.](https://docs.pett.ai/tokenomics/deposits-and-withdrawals/jump-queue) ### **Slashing Function** *** The Withdrawal Slash Function is designed to balance fairness & incentives taking two factors into consideration, elapsed time since initiating the withdrawal and the PettBro's level. The slash is only applied to tokens earned in-game. All $AIP tokens bought and deposited are exempt from any type of slash and can be withdrawn anytime. {% hint style="info" %} Withdrawals for $AIP tokens are enabled for all players level 15 or above. {% endhint %} The slash function is given by the following equation: $$ f(d,l) = \left( \frac{700 - l^{1.1}}{\sqrt{\frac{d^3}{155.9} + 155.9}} \right) {d > 0} $$ The 2D-algebraic function heavily scales down incurred tax for higher level users further decaying as time goes by.
{% hint style="success" %} All ETH deposited in-game can be withdrawn anytime without incurring any slash. {% endhint %} ### Slash Distribution *** In order to foster a dynamic economy, the slashed tokens will follow a 50:50 distribution, with half of them being burned and the rest being returned to the PettBro on the leaderboard. The burn events will be tracked on-chain. $$ \begin{align\*} \text{$AIP}&= \begin{cases} 50% \text{ : burned }\ 50% \text{ : leaderboard distribution } \end{cases} \end{align\*} $$ Please revert to [leaderboard](https://docs.pett.ai/overview/leaderboard "mention") to find out more about the leaderboard distribution system.
