About Polyupload

Polygon keeps on-chain actions fast and inexpensive compared with many Ethereum mainnet workflows. Polyupload uses it as the public index for your uploads: your wallet creates a collection, each file gets a receipt, and the record can be verified without making permanent storage feel heavy.

There is no account fee. You only need enough POL (Polygon's native token) for the Polygon transactions, and enough upload funding to pay for permanent Arweave storage. The app checks your balance before uploading so a file is not sent unless the wallet can complete the full flow.

No. Polyupload receipts are soulbound, which means they are locked to the wallet that created them. You can still burn a receipt if you want to remove the on-chain reference from your collection.

Public uploads can be opened by anyone with the Arweave link. Private uploads are encrypted before they are stored, so only the owner wallet can decrypt the direct file through Polyupload.

Connect your wallet and make sure it is on Polygon Mainnet. Most modern wallets can switch networks automatically when an app requests it; if yours cannot, add Polygon Mainnet manually using the network details from Polygon's documentation.

The most common cause is not having enough POL for gas, especially on the first upload because it creates your collection and mints the first receipt. If your balance is sufficient, wait a moment and try again, since RPC or wallet confirmation issues can also interrupt a transaction.
