Sol Incinerator vs ClaimYourSol vs Unclaimed SOL (2026)

Empty Solana token accounts can keep rent deposits locked after their balances reach zero. Sol Incinerator, ClaimYourSol, and Unclaimed SOL can all close eligible accounts and return most of that SOL, but their current standard fees and broader recovery coverage differ.

This page is the canonical comparison for changing competitor facts on Sol Incinerator. It was evidence-checked on August 30, 2026. Other guides link here instead of copying fee tables that become stale.

Comparison Method

We compare standard, generally available pricing. Temporary promotions, referral rebates, wallet-specific discounts, and individually negotiated rates are excluded for every provider. The net example uses the standard 2,039,280-lamport rent deposit before normal network transaction costs.

Pricing comes from each provider's current public fee statement where available, cross-checked against recent public transactions or exact payout formulas. Capability labels mean the feature was visible in the public product or documentation on the evidence date. Not documented does not prove a feature is impossible; it means we could not verify a public claim for it.

Current Fee and Capability Snapshot

The fee difference is now narrow between Sol Incinerator and Unclaimed SOL. On a typical standard account, their published net payouts differ by only 1,505 lamports. ClaimYourSol's standard 5% fee returns about 62,684 fewer lamports per account than Sol Incinerator.

Sol Incinerator

Sol Incinerator has operated since December 2021. Its default Fun Mode only closes empty accounts; destructive token and NFT actions remain in the optional Pro Mode.

For a standard account holding 2,039,280 lamports, Sol Incinerator returns a flat 2,000,000 lamports to the user. That leaves 39,280 lamports, or about 1.93%, as the service fee. The same payout can be checked through the public fee receiver wallet burn68h9dS2tvZwtCFMt79SyaEgvqtcZZWJphizQxgt.

Its main distinction is the range of specialized cleanup tools in one interface: classic SPL and Token-2022 cleanup, standard and programmable NFTs, compressed NFTs, editions, domains, LP assets, and tokens sent to Solana's incinerator address. It also includes mass transfer and an integrated Jupiter swap.

That broader surface is useful when a wallet contains more than empty token accounts, but it makes transaction review more important in Pro Mode. Fun Mode is the appropriate starting point when you only want non-destructive rent recovery.

ClaimYourSol

ClaimYourSol's old 20% fee is no longer current. Its official fee announcement and current homepage state that the standard service fee is 5%. On a typical 2,039,280-lamport account, that works out to roughly 1,937,316 lamports returned before network costs.

The current product exposes separate account, token, and NFT surfaces and includes burn protection. Its public cleanup explanation specifically describes classic SPL accounts; we did not find a public Token-2022 support statement on the evidence date, so the table does not assume it.

ClaimYourSol can also sponsor network costs for eligible zero-SOL wallets. That can matter more than a small percentage difference if a wallet lacks enough SOL to submit its first cleanup transaction.

Unclaimed SOL

Unclaimed SOL also changed materially after older comparisons were published. Its current canonical fee schedule charges the greater of 2% of recovered rent or the amount above 0.002 SOL for each successful classic SPL or Token-2022 account close.

For the standard 2,039,280-lamport example, the 2% calculation wins: the service fee is 40,785 lamports and the user receives 1,998,495 lamports. That is about 2%, not the 5% shown in older comparisons.

Unclaimed SOL documents a broad scan that includes Token-2022 accounts, program buffers, deactivated stake accounts, eligible NFT burns, closable LP or position-account rent, and several reward types. Different recovery categories use different rates, so the standard token-account number should not be applied to every result in a scan.

Safety Checks That Matter More Than a Logo

All three tools describe wallet-signed, non-custodial flows. That does not make every proposed transaction safe by default. Before signing:

1. Confirm the transaction only references the accounts or assets you selected.
2. Separate empty-account closure from destructive burns when the interface allows it.
3. Verify the displayed gross recovery, service fee, network cost, and net amount.
4. Never enter a seed phrase or private key into a cleanup website.
5. Start with a read-only scan and use the least-destructive mode that completes the job.

Which Tool Fits Which Job?

• Use Sol Incinerator Fun Mode when you want a non-destructive close-only flow with a flat 0.002 SOL user payout per standard account.
• Consider ClaimYourSol when its zero-SOL fee-payer flow is necessary or you prefer its account, token, and NFT interface, while accounting for the standard 5% fee.
• Consider Unclaimed SOL when its wider scan for stakes, program buffers, reward categories, or eligible LP-position rent matches your wallet.
• Use Sol Incinerator Pro Mode when you specifically need its cNFT, domain, stuck-token, or other specialized burn surfaces and understand the destructive action.

Fees and support can change after this review. Always use the quote shown immediately before signing as the final source for your own transaction.
