How to get rewards into non-custodial wallet?

I have brave non-custodial wallet setup within the browser under brave://wallet/crypto/portfolio
How can I get the rewards into that wallet? I don’t want to use gemini accounts as I already use a few other exchanges

First entry here:

BAT Rewards come in the form of virtual BAT (vBAT) until you verify with an exchange. When you verify with an exchange, your vBAT gets deposited there and converted to real BAT. The step for going to an exchange is required for AML/KYC reasons. We’re looking at the decentralization process for Brave ads rewards as part of Themis.

Brave Wallet is a self custody wallet and therefore we cannot currently pay to it for the user rev-share for ads. We would need to KYC/AML your address and may also need a money transmitter license to do so.

For tipping, we are planning to implement on-chain P2P tipping. There are some things to work through including high Ethereum gas fees and no anonymity on Ethereum. After we have Solana support we will likely add this pretty quickly.

Thank you @Mattches for the explanation. Understand the reason for KYC. Is there a way to link Binance wallet instead of Gemini or Uphold?

@qwerty123,
There is no way to link Binance or any other custodial accounts at this time. We hope to offer users more options in the future.
