User Guide

Mint to Earn Overview

Through the zkPass protocol, users can verify their off-chain platform data (e.g., social accounts, travel, business trips) to generate a zero-knowledge proof credential (zk-VC), which is then stored on-chain. This credential serves as a verifiable credit carrier, helping users build decentralized credit profiles. When verification is successful and meets the rules, users can earn token rewards — this is Mint to Earn.

Verification Flow & Rules

1. Data Verification & Credential Generation

  • Users choose the data source to be verified (e.g., Twitter follow @PolyFlow).

  • zkPass uses zkTLS technology to directly access HTTPS data sources and generate a zero-knowledge proof confirming data authenticity.

  • The credential only includes verification results (e.g., Twitter Follower Count) rather than raw data. Raw data never leaves the user’s device, ensuring full privacy protection.

2. On-Chain Storage & Reward Trigger

  • Credentials are stored on-chain via smart contracts as publicly verifiable records, while rewards are distributed automatically.

  • Uniqueness constraint: the same data source (e.g., Twitter Blue Badge) can only be uploaded once. Duplicate attempts are blocked.

3. Validity & Renewal Mechanism

  • On-chain credentials have a 2-year validity period ⏳. After expiration, re-verification is required to update credit records and maintain data accuracy.

  • If verification fails or conditions are not met, users can re-submit unlimited times until successful.

Using the zkPass Plugin

Recommended setup:

  • Browser: Latest Google Chrome or Brave

Instructions:

  • Option 1: Install TransGate from the official Google Chrome Web Store. ⚠️ Important: Do not install TransGate extensions from third-party sources. Always use official links to protect your accounts.

  • Grant permissions for pop-ups and cross-site cookies (disabling may block the verification process).

  • Log in to the data source normally. zkPass will run in-browser; do not close the tab during verification.

Note: Ad blockers or privacy extensions may interfere with wallet communication. If issues occur, temporarily disable them.

Important Note: Since mobile service may be unstable, we recommend using the Google extension on PC for the best experience!

2. 📱 iOS (iPhone)

  • App Clip access — no installation required. zkPass SDK fully supports Apple’s App Clip experience, delivering a seamless and secure verification process.

How to use:

  • Open the zkPass-integrated dApp link in Safari or scan the QR code.

  • An App Clip card will appear — tap Open to start verification.

  • Complete wallet connection and data verification inside the App Clip.

  • Return to the main dApp after finishing. No persistent app or background service is kept.

Requirements:

  • iOS 14.3 or above

  • Safari or Camera (for QR scanning)

  • App Clips enabled in Settings → App Clips

Note:

  • Wallet connection is handled in-session (MetaMask or WalletConnect).

All processes are sandboxed under Apple’s App Clip privacy rules.

3. 📱 Android Devices

Requirement: Install the official TransGate app from Google Play.

  • zkPass SDK runs via the native TransGate client to ensure secure proof generation.

Recommended setup: Chrome Browser + MetaMask Mobile App

  • Open the dApp link in Chrome or other Chromium-based browsers.

  • When prompted, connect your wallet with MetaMask or WalletConnect.

  • Approve requests in MetaMask and return to the browser tab to complete verification.

⚠️ Note on MetaMask in-app browser (Android):

  • Due to system limitations, it does not fully support dApp redirects or advanced authentication.

  • For best stability, use a standalone browser.

Compatibility:

  • TransGate Android app supports Android 12+.

  • For incompatible devices, use Mise Browser + TransGate Extension:

  • Download Mise browser: https://mise.xyz

  • Open Chrome Web Store → Add TransGate extension in Mise

  • After installation, TransGate icon will appear in the top-right. Open any zkPass-supported page to begin.
