🔥Participating in a Token Sale

This guide shows how to buy tokens from a project's public sale on Dozer Tools. The sale page is sometimes called the Launchpad or Crowdsale — they're the same thing.

What You Need

• A Hathor wallet with Reown / WalletConnect support

• HTR for the purchase plus a small extra for transaction fees

• The token URL or token symbol of the sale you want to join

Step 1 — Find the Sale

Three ways to reach a sale:

• Explore → Token Sales in the top navigation — lists all active and upcoming sales.

• Explore → All Tokens — open any token's page; if it has an active sale, the Token Sale card surfaces it.

• Direct link — projects usually publish a /launchpad/<token-id> URL on their social channels.

Step 2 — Connect Your Wallet

1. Click Connect Wallet in the top right (or anywhere a connect prompt appears).

2. Copy the WalletConnect URI from the modal.

3. In your Hathor wallet, open the QR icon → Manual → Reown Connection, paste the URI, click Connect.

4. Approve the session request in your wallet.

Once connected, the top-right button shows your address (truncated, e.g. WbvoFb...9GrE).

Step 3 — Read the Sale Page

Public Launchpad page

Section	What it shows
Status badge	Upcoming / Ready / Live / Paused / Soft Cap Reached / Successful / Failed
Sale Progress	HTR raised vs Hard Cap, countdown to start (Upcoming) or end (Live)
Sale Details	Token Price, Soft Cap, Hard Cap, Min Purchase, Start/End Time, participant count
Your Participation	What you've already contributed, claim status
Participate in Sale	Form that appears when the sale is Live

Status meanings

• Upcoming — Not started yet. You can read the details but cannot buy.

• Ready — Past the start time but not yet activated; the project admin will start it manually.

• Live — Purchases open.

• Paused — Project admin temporarily disabled purchases. Wait or move on.

• Soft Cap Reached — Sale met its minimum goal but is still accepting purchases.

• Successful — Sale ended and Soft Cap was reached. Claim your tokens.

• Failed — Sale ended without reaching Soft Cap. Refund your HTR.

Step 4 — Buy Tokens (Live sales)

1. In Participate in Sale, enter the HTR amount you want to spend (must be ≥ Min Purchase).

2. The UI shows how many tokens you'll receive at the configured rate.

3. Click Participate in Sale.

4. In your wallet, review the transaction details, enter your PIN, sign.

5. After confirmation, the Your Participation panel updates:

   • Your Deposit — HTR you've contributed in total

   • Refundable — recoverable if the sale fails

   • Tokens Allocated — what you'll receive at claim time

   • Claim Status — Not Claimed until you claim after a Successful finalize

You can purchase multiple times during a sale; amounts accumulate.

Step 5 — Claim or Refund After the Sale Ends

Once the project admin finalizes the sale, the Participate in Sale form is replaced by a single action button in the Your Participation panel. The button's label and color depend on three things:

Sale state	You deposited?	Already claimed?	Button label	Style
Successful	Yes	No	Claim Tokens	Primary (default)
Successful	Yes	Yes	Already Claimed	Disabled
Failed	Yes	No	Claim Refund	Red (destructive)
Failed	Yes	Yes	Already Claimed	Disabled
Any state	No	—	No Participation	Disabled
Not yet finalized	—	—	Not Available	Disabled

So the same panel handles both outcomes — you don't navigate to a different page. The Sale Progress badge at the top will read Successful or Failed so you know which action you're confirming.

How to claim or refund

1. Make sure the badge at the top shows Successful or Failed (the project has finalized the sale).

2. Click Claim Tokens (success) or Claim Refund (failure).

3. Approve the transaction in your wallet, enter your PIN.

4. After confirmation:

   • Successful sale — your purchased tokens land in your wallet; Claim Status switches to Claimed.

   • Failed sale — your HTR deposit returns to your wallet; Claim Status switches to Claimed.

The button stays active until you've claimed. It costs a small HTR transaction fee whether you're claiming tokens or a refund.

If after a successful claim the token doesn't appear in your wallet, register it manually: QR icon → Manual → Register Token in Hathor wallet, then paste the token's contract address from the public token page.

Safety Checks

• Verify the URL — Always confirm you're on testnet.tools.dozer.finance (or the official mainnet domain). Phishing copies exist.

• Check the token contract — Open the token's public page from the official project channels, not from random links.

• Read the vesting plan — Public Sale tokens may have their own cliff or unlock schedule. Visible in the Token Vesting section of the token's public page.

• Keep some HTR aside — Claiming and refunding both cost a small transaction fee.

Troubleshooting

Symptom	Fix
Participate button disabled	Sale is not Live, or amount is below Min Purchase
Transaction rejected	Wallet session expired — disconnect and reconnect
Tokens not in wallet after claim	Refresh; if still missing, register the token manually
Refund button missing on a Failed sale	The sale may still be processing finalization — wait 1-2 blocks
