6

Complete KYC when required

You can install the app and begin onboarding without KYC. Identity verification is required at 5 UP in rewards, before any withdrawal, and for certain tasks, so plan to complete it early. Follow the in-app KYC steps when prompted. Ekata Nodes does not collect this identity information — Unetwork does.

Allow permissions and open tasks

Grant the permissions below so the app can run reliably in the background, then open Unetwork Tasks from the app menu.

Check rewards in the dashboard

Rewards depend on task availability, country, network quality, phone uptime, carrier support, validation, and commercial demand. Ekata Nodes never charges you — you keep 80% of the variable rewards your license generates.

Contact support with your license code

If the app does not accept the code, a sign-in code does not arrive, or a permission screen looks different, send the license code and your device model.
