How much does
planting earn?

The planting reward comes from the current Planting Pool — it changes as the network grows. The planter's share is 15% of the verification reward, per verification, for as long as each tree stands.

How It Works

Three steps.
A permanent record.

All registration happens in the app. This page prepares you for what to expect — what qualifies, what gets checked, and what the economic relationship with your tree looks like from the moment of approval forward.

Choose a location
1
Step 01

Choose a location.
Pick an eligible species.

Any location works — your property, community land, reforestation areas. The tree must be a native, large-canopy species from the eligible list. A decorative shrub does not qualify. Only species that do something meaningful to the land, the water, the local ecosystem — over decades.

Species requirement
Native · large-canopy · ecologically significant in its region. View eligible species →

Step 02

Plant it.
Register in the app.

Open the app, submit your planting: GPS coordinates, species, photo evidence. The submission goes to review. Approved plantings are added to the public Tree Map and receive the planting reward immediately from the Pool.

On approval

Step 03

Keep earning.
Every verification.

Every time a valid verification of your tree is approved — by you or anyone else — you automatically earn 15% of the verification reward as the planter's permanent share — currently ◉15. No action required on your end. The economic relationship has no scheduled end.

If you verify your own tree, you collect both shares: ◉80 as verifier + ◉15 as planter = ◉95 of the ◉100 base reward.

The Economics

One tree.
Multiple income events.

Most planting programs pay once and move on. The Standing treats every planting as the start of a long-term economic relationship. The more the tree is verified — by you or by others — the more you earn from it.

Submit the verification yourself and collect both shares in the same transaction.

80 verifier + 15 planter
A tree verified twice a year for 10 years generates ◉300 Ring in planter income — before halvings, and before accounting for any verifications you submit yourself. The planting reward is the first payment. Every year after is a consequence of the tree still being there.
Eligible Species

Native. Large-canopy.
Ecologically significant.

Only species that generate long-term ecological impact qualify. The list is curated by region — the same tree in different biomes may or may not qualify depending on its native range. Check the full catalog before planting.

Species not on the list? Submit a request — the catalog expands as verification capacity grows in new regions.

The tree goes on the map.
The record stays open.

Every approved tree is public — location, species, planting date, full verification history. You plant it once. The system tracks it permanently.
