PECPool uses the PPS+ (Pay Per Share Plus) payment method. Under this method, miners receive rewards based on the valid shares submitted to the pool, without having to wait for the pool to find a block.
The reward value is calculated using factors such as the miner's accepted shares, Bitcoin network difficulty, block reward, transaction fees, and the pool's published fee.
Because mining conditions and network difficulty can change, estimated and final earnings may vary over time.
Bitcoin payouts are normally processed during the following daily payout windows:
To be included in a payout, the account balance must be above the applicable payout threshold at the time of processing, and the Bitcoin wallet address must be confirmed.
Payout processing may occasionally be delayed due to Bitcoin network conditions, security reviews, wallet maintenance, or other operational requirements.
The standard PECPool mining fee is 2.5%.
The pool fee is deducted when mining rewards are calculated. PECPool does not charge an additional withdrawal service fee for automatic payouts to your confirmed Bitcoin wallet address.
Bitcoin network fees may still apply where required by the Bitcoin network or the selected payout method.
The minimum payout amount depends on the payout method:
The account balance must meet the applicable threshold at the time the payout is processed. The destination Bitcoin wallet address must also be confirmed.
We recommend configuring all three PECPool stratum URLs in your miner to improve connection stability.
If the primary pool server becomes temporarily unavailable or cannot be reached because of a network issue, the miner can automatically switch to the next configured stratum URL.
Using multiple stratum addresses helps reduce mining interruptions and provides a more reliable failover connection.
The stratum URLs should be entered in the priority order recommended by PECPool.
It is normal for the hashrate displayed by the mining pool to differ temporarily from the hashrate shown in the miner's local interface.
The miner usually displays an estimated or short-term device hashrate, while the pool calculates hashrate based on valid shares actually received over a specific period.
Common reasons for a lower pool hashrate include:
After connecting or restarting a miner, allow sufficient time for the pool average to stabilize before comparing the values.
To receive PECPool alerts through Telegram, first open the official PECPool bot:
@pecpoolbot
Send a message to the bot and follow the instructions shown in the PECPool panel to link your Telegram account.
After the connection is completed, you can enable the available alert options from your account notification settings. Depending on the selected settings, alerts may include hashrate drops, miner or worker issues, and important account or platform events.
Always verify that you are communicating with the official PECPool Telegram bot before following any instructions.
Rejected shares are mining results that are not accepted by the pool. A small number of rejected or stale shares may occur normally, but a consistently high rejection rate should be investigated.
Common causes include:
To reduce rejected shares:
If the rejection rate remains high, contact PECPool support and provide the account name, worker name, miner model, and relevant miner logs.
A worker may appear offline or inactive even while the miner is powered on if the pool is not receiving valid shares from that worker.
Check the following items:
If the miner continues to submit shares but the worker still appears offline, contact PECPool support and provide the account name, worker name, miner model, and a screenshot of the miner's pool status.
Bitcoin mining earnings are variable and may increase or decrease over time. This is normal and does not necessarily indicate a problem with the miner or the pool.
Mining earnings can be affected by:
Short-term earnings may fluctuate, so performance should normally be reviewed over a longer period rather than using only a few minutes or hours of data.
PECPool account balances are normally updated once per day between 12:00 and 18:00 UTC.
The exact update time may vary depending on accounting processing, mining data availability, network conditions, and operational requirements.
The estimated earnings shown in charts or statistics may change before the final amount is added to the account balance.
Automatic payouts are processed when the account balance reaches the automatic payout threshold of 0.001 BTC. The payout is sent to the confirmed Bitcoin wallet address registered on the account.
A manual payout request may be submitted when the available balance reaches at least 0.0001 BTC, subject to the applicable security and processing requirements.
Manual payout requests may require two-factor authentication and additional verification before processing.
Yes. A Bitcoin wallet address must be confirmed before it can be used for payouts.
Wallet confirmation helps protect the account against unauthorized changes and accidental payouts to an incorrect address.
Always verify the complete wallet address and Bitcoin network before confirming it. Bitcoin transactions are irreversible once broadcast to the network.
Two-factor authentication is required for sensitive account operations, including certain manual payout requests and transfers to external wallet addresses.
We strongly recommend enabling two-factor authentication even when it is not mandatory, because it provides an additional layer of protection if the account password or email account is compromised.
To connect a Bitcoin miner to PECPool:
After the miner begins submitting valid shares, the worker should normally appear in the panel within approximately 10 to 20 minutes.
A worker name identifies an individual miner or mining device under your PECPool account.
Using a unique worker name for each miner makes it easier to monitor hashrate, uptime, performance, and connection issues separately.
The worker information is normally entered in the miner using the format provided in the PECPool panel. Do not use the same worker name for multiple miners unless specifically instructed.
Watch Links allow you to create a secure view-only link for selected PECPool accounts.
A Watch Link can be used to share mining statistics with team members, farm owners, customers, or other authorized viewers without sharing your PECPool username or password.
You can select which accounts and information are included, and you can disable the Watch Link at any time.
Yes. The PECPool panel is available as a Progressive Web App (PWA) and can be installed on supported Android, iPhone, iPad, Windows, and desktop browsers.
After installation, PECPool can be opened from the device home screen or application menu and used in a standalone application-style window.
No app store download is required.
The official PEC domains are:
Always verify the domain before entering account credentials, wallet information, authentication codes, or other sensitive information.
PECPool will never ask you to share your password or two-factor authentication code through unofficial websites or private messages.
No. PECPool provides Bitcoin mining pool, monitoring, miner management, payout, and related technical services.
PECPool does not offer investment plans, guaranteed returns, cryptocurrency trading, interest-bearing accounts, or guaranteed-profit cloud mining contracts.
Bitcoin mining income is variable and depends on hashrate, miner uptime, network difficulty, accepted shares, pool fees, Bitcoin network conditions, and other operational factors.
