# Faucet

> Claim test WBT from the Whitechain Sepolia faucet (chain ID 1874) to pay gas while deploying contracts and testing dapps on the L2 network.

The Whitechain Sepolia faucet distributes small amounts of test WBT to pay gas while deploying and testing on the network. Test WBT has no real value and exists only on testnet (chain ID 1874).

The faucet is available at [faucet.testnet.whitechain.io](https://faucet.testnet.whitechain.io).

## Before you claim

To claim test WBT, you need:

* Whitechain Sepolia added to your wallet. Use chain ID 1874 and the public RPC at `https://rpc.testnet.whitechain.io/`.
* A GitHub account at least 30 days old. One account can claim once per 24-hour window.

## Claim test WBT

1. Open [faucet.testnet.whitechain.io](https://faucet.testnet.whitechain.io).
2. Sign in with GitHub.
3. Paste your Whitechain address and complete the captcha.
4. Submit.

The transaction lands on testnet within seconds. You can verify it on the [testnet explorer](https://explorer.testnet.whitechain.io).

## Drip limits

| Tier     | Eligibility                    | Drip per 24h |
| -------- | ------------------------------ | ------------ |
| Standard | GitHub OAuth (min 30 days old) | 0.5 WBT      |

The 24-hour window is rolling, not a midnight reset. If you claimed at 14:00 today, the next claim is allowed at 14:00 tomorrow.

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="The captcha keeps failing">
    Try a different browser, disable VPN or aggressive ad-blockers, or clear cookies for the faucet domain. The faucet uses Cloudflare.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I submitted but funds did not arrive">
    Check your address on the [testnet explorer](https://explorer.testnet.whitechain.io). If the claim succeeded, the tokens are already in your account. If you do not see the transaction, retry after a few minutes or reach out via the support channels. For a known incident, check the [status page](https://status.whitechain.io/).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="My claim was rejected even though I haven't claimed today">
    The faucet checks three limits independently: wallet address, IP address, and GitHub account. If another developer on the same network (corporate NAT, VPN) already claimed, the IP limit may be hit. Try a different network or reach out via the support channels to request a higher IP allowance.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I need more test WBT than the daily limit">
    The standard daily limit covers normal deployment and testing. For larger needs (load tests, deeper integration), reach out to the team via the support channels.
