Thanks for reporting. I can help to troubleshoot. A few questions to start:

  • Do you have multiple devices linked to your Uphold?
  • If so, can you share a screenshot of your Contributions and Event Log tabs which can be found here brave://rewards-internals/

Thank you in advance!


My Uphold is not connected to multiple device. I still have provided the contribution and event logs. Thank you. Hope to get a solution from you.

Hi @showmik, it looks like auto-contribute was enabled on your device on 9/22.

Auto-contribute gave the BAT away to the sites you used most. If you want to keep the generated BAT keep auto-contribute off. A line in the log will have ac.enabled having a value of 0 when it’s off.

Hello, is it possible to reserve the transaction and get the BAT back?

How I can change the auto contribution? I can not find the option of changing the value to 0 from 1.

Goto brave://rewards/
There’s a slider that needs to be turned off.

I really don’t think you’ll get donated BAT back.

Is there any way to request for a reverse of this transaction? I did not intend to happen something like this.

You may have not intended it, but at this time by default auto-contribute is on from the time you turn on rewards. That means by default all earnings go to publishers. There’s no explanation starting rewards, so I think it’s the wrong thing to do as it upsets so many people.
