1. What Callout is

Callout is a venue where people publish callouts, a demand addressed to a company, an institution, a public decision or a project, and where other people can buy and sell a token tied to that callout on the Pons launchpad. Callout does not verify claims, does not endorse callouts, and does not take sides.

Callout is not offered in Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Russia, Belarus, Crimea, Sevastopol, the Donetsk region of Ukraine and the Luhansk region of Ukraine, because of sanctions that Callout and the services it runs on must follow, nor in Turkey, whose own rules do not allow it. You may not use Callout from those places; if you are named on a sanctions list of the United States, the United Nations, the European Union or the United Kingdom; or if you are a national of Russia or Belarus, unless you also hold the nationality of, or a residence permit for, a country of the European Union, the European Economic Area or Switzerland. You may not use a VPN or any other way of hiding where you are to get round this. Connections through Tor are refused, since nobody can tell where they come from. We apply it by the country your connection comes from and, for those regions, the region, as our network provider reports them; an account used from one of those places in the last 30 days is not ranked in the daily contests and cannot give or take a referral, whatever connection it uses now. Where a country's own rules are the reason, someone who already has money in a wallet Callout made for them can still withdraw it or export the wallet from the exit page.

Callout is for people aged 18 or over. By signing in you confirm that you are 18 or over. We do not ask your age; if we learn that an account belongs to someone under 18, we delete what we can, as the privacy policy says (section 12).

2. You publish, you are responsible

The person who launches a callout is its publisher. You confirm that what you write is true to your knowledge, that you own the right to share any evidence you attach, and that your demand targets a decision, an action or a policy, never a private person. You are liable for your own statements. Callout may hide a callout or a statement that breaks these rules or the law, after the fact, and will act on valid legal requests.

3. Money and risk

Callout tokens are speculative and can lose all value. Nothing here is investment advice. Fees are set by public contracts: every trade pays 1% of its quote leg to the Pons curve and 0.5% of its dollar leg to Callout, 0.45% for an account bound to a referrer, and the fee shown before you trade includes every fee the contracts charge on that trade. The creator side of the curve fee reaches the callout's vault, which sends 70% of it to the callout's daily spreader pool and 30% to the treasury; the callout creator earns nothing from fees for having launched it, and like anyone can earn as a referrer (section 5). Moving money to and from other networks is covered in section 4. You are responsible for taxes in your jurisdiction.

4. Deposits and withdrawals

Your cash is USDG on Robinhood Chain, in your own wallet. Sending USDG on Robinhood Chain is a plain transfer from your wallet; no bridge is involved. Transfers to and from other networks are carried out by Relay (relay.link), a third-party bridge that Callout does not operate. Callout never holds the money while it is on its way, and cannot speed up, cancel or reverse a transfer once it is sent.

Before we show a deposit address or let you sign a withdrawal to another network, we check the quote: the bridge may charge at most $0.50 plus 0.5% of the amount, and for a withdrawal the amount Relay guarantees may fall short of what you send by at most $0.50 plus 1%. We do not limit the amount you move, per transfer or per day; Relay can decline an amount it cannot carry, and then says why. A deposit address keeps working after its quote and can be used again for the same token and network. Relay prices whatever arrives there when it arrives, so an amount other than the one quoted is not covered by our check. Times shown are estimates. A transfer stays pending until Relay completes it or pays it back.

If Relay cannot complete a deposit, it pays it back, less that network's gas, to your own address on the network you sent from (from Solana, the Solana address you gave with the deposit) and in the token you sent: not to the exchange or wallet that sent it, and not to your cash here. An amount too small to cover that gas is not paid back at all. Callout cannot move money on other networks. If Callout created your wallet, you can export its key from the wallet menu and move the money with another wallet, which needs that network's gas token. If Relay cannot complete a withdrawal, it pays the USDG back to your wallet on Robinhood Chain, usually within seconds, less a small gas cost. In rare cases Relay can neither complete nor pay back a transfer on its own; the money then stays in Relay's contract until it is recovered through Relay's support, or at relay.link/withdraw with a signature from your wallet.

Send only the token and network shown with a deposit address. Any other token, bridged versions such as USDC.e or USDbC included, or the right token on another network, may be converted by Relay at its own price, which Callout does not check, or may be lost; some of it can be recovered only through Relay's support, and Callout cannot reverse it. Tokens sent to your Callout address on a network other than Robinhood Chain stay at that address on that network, where the app cannot move them. Relay refuses deposits sent from some exchanges and wallets: @CryptoBot, @wallet (Telegram Wallet), Bit Pin, BitcoinVN, Bitnest, ChangeHero, ChangeNOW, CoinEx, Crypto HK, Cryptomus, Exmo.me, FixedFloat, Heleket, HTX (Huobi), Kraken Market, N.Exchange, SideShift.ai, Tornado Cash, Wallex.ir. Relay can change that list. Money sent from them, or from any sender Relay's screening blocks, is held and not paid back automatically; getting it back goes through Relay's support and is not guaranteed.

To show money at your address on those other networks, our server asks nodes of each network for your address's balance there. Those nodes see your address and nothing else about you. What else we collect, who sees it and how long it is kept is in the privacy policy.

Recent transfers, in the wallet menu, shows the state of each transfer, with a link to Relay's page for each one Relay carries. Questions about a transfer: support@callout.family. Any transfer Relay carried can be looked up by wallet address or transaction at relay.link/transactions, and Relay's own support is at support.relay.link.

5. Referrals

An account is bound to one referrer, once, on chain, for life; never to itself. A referrer receives 25% of the platform fee on every trade the people they referred make, paid in the same transaction, and competes in each callout's daily contest, which pays at most the top 20 spreaders from that callout's pool at 00:00 UTC, subject to the minimums and caps published in the docs. A pool under $50 carries over. Fake traffic earns nothing. Abuse, including circular trading to farm a pool, may lead to flagging, which skips the account in the contest, and to removal.

Referral rewards, the referral discount and the daily Spreaders prizes (the daily contest) are not offered to people in the United Kingdom. We apply this by the country your connection comes from, as our network provider reports it: an account used from the United Kingdom in the last 30 days cannot use or give a referral code or link and is not ranked in the daily contests. A referral already recorded on chain stays, since no one can change it. If you live in the United Kingdom you may not take part, whatever connection you use, and prizes won in breach of this may be withheld.

6. Targets

A company, institution or project named in a callout may respond on the callout page and may ask for review. Being named is not an accusation of wrongdoing by Callout; it is the publisher's statement.
