Is Tipping Disabled in Nightly?

[Aman_M]

Briefly describe your issue:
Tipping Banner in Nightly shows “Server connection error” and brave://rewards/ perpetually loads vBAT balance without success. Extension panal from BAT triangle shows correct vBAT balance though. So are we in the process of removing vBATs from Nightly already? @Mattches

Thanks @Aman_M, is this still an issue for you?

[Aman_M]

Yeah @steeven I’m still seeing this. Is this not expected?

[SaltyBanana]

Hi @Aman_M I am able to reproduce the issue on Nightly 1.51.16

Let me look into this.

[Aman_M]

Good to know @SaltyBanana and hopefully this is just a bug introduced by the changes in tipping being worked upon.

Hi @Aman_M

Update: Can confirm that it mostly likely related to vBAT expiry.
With a verified account I am able to send tips.

[Aman_M]

But @SaltyBanana the BAT triangle extension panel correctly shows my vBAT balance so I’m guessing my vBATs haven’t expired yet. Or is it that vBATs will expire in Nightly first?

[SaltyBanana]

@Aman_M Asking our team if this is intended behavior.

[Aman_M]

Is there any update @SaltyBanana?

[Evan123]

This issue is currently open and should be resolved in the next update. Thanks again!

Introduces `FetchBalanceResult`.

[Aman_M]

Cool. Thanks for the update.

[Aman_M]

Just to update, it’s working now.

I’m having the same issue. I’ve updated to Version 1.50.93 Chromium: 111.0.5563.64 (Official Build) beta (64-bit). Still I am getting the same error.

[Aakarsh_k]

What’s the version you have updated to?

[SaltyBanana]

Hi @Aakarsh_k this change was merged with Nightly 1.51

[Aakarsh_k]

Okay. Thanks. But when I update, it shows its up to date. When is Nightly 1.51 shipping?

[SmartyAadi]

Umm, I guess it already has. mine rus 1.51.48 already.

[Aman_M]

@Aakarsh_k The fix was uplifted to v1.50.93 as well-

You should check if there is an update available in your Brave Beta.

[Aakarsh_k]

Thank you all. It’s working now. I didn’t do anything, it started working on it’s own. I’m running Version 1.50.101.
