I have allocated my staking to a pool since 23/08/20. It says delegated and everything looks set up properly. At least 2 full eopchs have passed. My rewards are still showing as zero. Is this Cardano staking a scam? Why I haven’t I received yet? ---

Just found out you have to wait between 15 and 20 days to get first reward Would be nice to have known that upfront I know some pools I could have put it in where I could have received rewards immediately Three weeks wasted with Daedalus ---

Q: When do i receive my staking rewards? A: Lets assume you delegated during epoch 200. Untill the end of that epoch nothing will happen. In epoch 201 your stake is included in the current snapshot. In epoch 202 your stake may will produce blocks. In epoch 203, your rewards are calculated and paid out at the end of that epoch. The rewards will also be included in the next snapshot and thus be staked. Cheers Fabian ---

OK thanks I have one or two more epochs to wait then and will receive rewards at the end, as you say ---

Assuming everything is functioning correctly with the Pool your staked to (it’s producing blocks) Use this video to get a good understanding of _exactly_ when rewards are paid out by any pool [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/cardano/original/3X/a/1/a168d360cee139e4cad1a143e92ee7366bc7270f.jpeg "Cardano Rewards Schedule Explained: Brain Twister") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPnG99g_km0) I use [PoolTool.io](http://PoolTool.io) and [Adapools.org](http://Adapools.org) to review performance of all pools on the mainnet. Your payouts are not controlled by the pool, they are a product of the eco-system, i.e. if your in the ‘right’ pool and the pool is producing blocks, you get rewards ---

Sorry but the info was out for about 2 months previous and available in many many locations. If I found the info as a total newcomer, then anyone could have. It’s all going to work out for you though. No worries. ✌🏽 😊 ---

Common sense would make me think you would read something to gain knowledge about something before complaining about it. Also, here you are on this forum asking questions and being accusatory instead of reading the bible. You are definitely not making a good first impression. ---
