Stake SOL from Account
This section is for Operators only.
Prerequisites for staking SOL
To initiate staking operations, you need to be a Creator in the staking governance rules of the account. If you are not, please contact your administrators to request the necessary permissions.
Stake SOL via app UI
Step 1: Start Staking
Navigate to the relevant Solana staking account.
Click on the Start Staking button to open a modal with validators proposed by Ledger partners.
Decide on the amount to stake and approve your transaction on the Ledger Stax.
Ensure some SOL is always available for future operations.
Note: It may take up to 4 minutes to broadcast and re-synchronize your stake to Ledger Enterprise. Please refresh the page after this period to view your stake.
Step 2: Staking Activation Period
Once all operators approve the transaction, your stake will be in an Activating status.
It generally takes around 3 days for a stake to move to an Activated status.
Rewards begin generating once the stake is activated.
Step 3: Visualize Rewards & Stake Information
Each table row in the interface represents an on-chain staking position.
Click a row for details on stake status, activation date, and total generated rewards.
A dedicated tab provides on-chain reward payout history.
Verify information by clicking the explorer button to check on-chain data.
Note: The total balance in your stake account is greater than your delegated amount due to Solana's rent. Only the delegated amount generates rewards.
Step 4: Stake More
Use the Stake More button to create new staking positions.
Separate positions can be made for each customer to meet compliance or to increase rewards.
We recommend maintaining under 10 active stakes for seamless account management.
Step 5: Withdraw Returns
To withdraw funds, first click Deactivate to put your stake in a Deactivating status, which lasts about 3 days.
Afterward, click Withdraw to send funds and rewards to your Ledger Enterprise account.
Stake SOL via API

Test Staking SOL
To start testing on Ledger Enterprise, you need at least the staking addendum. Contact our team for access.
Option 1: Test on Solana Mainnet with real funds (no risk of losing funds; only Transaction fee apply).
Option 2: Test on Solana DevNet with test SOL tokens, which have no real value. Contact our team to obtain test SOL.
Note: Network constraints like the 3-day warm-up/cool-down period cannot be bypassed. Rewards are distributed over time during each epoch. Our team continuously tests the staking capabilities to ensure rewards are generated and operations function with your preferred validator.
