# Rewards Management

For every validator deposited validators in the Onchain Dedicated smart contracts, there is a deterministically generated Ethereum address, controlled by the contract, set as withdrawal credentials of the validator.

This recipient address receives all the Consensus Layer rewards of the validator it is associated to. It also receives the unstaked amount upon exiting the validator.

Only the registered owner of the validator can claim this recipient address' balance.

Upon claiming their rewards, validator owners trigger commission dispatching, a process which sends the net rewards to the validator owner address and the remaining value to the different partners involved in the staking offering.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.kiln.fi/v1/kiln-products/onchain/deprecated-dedicated-validators/key-concepts/rewards-management.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
