<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nBrave rewards you for browsing the web by displaying ads with a set frequency chosen by the user. It helps you earn tokens by viewing ads shown based on your interests. If you’re not interested in the program, you can turn it off altogether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here’s how to disable the Brave Private Ads to declutter the browser:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 1<\/strong>: Type and enter brave:\/\/rewards<\/strong> in the search bar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nAlternatively, you can click the hamburger menu<\/strong> > Brave Rewards <\/strong>(as shown in the image) to land on the rewards page. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nStep 2<\/strong>: Here, turn off the “Brave Private Ads<\/strong>” toggle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThat’s it. Brave browser will now stop showing you any ads or related notifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>2. Disable Auto Contribution <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nBrave comes with a feature called “Auto Contribute” to contribute a portion of your rewards to publishers and content creators. It automatically tips tokens to the Brave verified sites based on your attention measured by the browser. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
To disable the Auto Contribution feature:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nStep 1: <\/strong>Open Brave, tap the hamburger menu<\/strong> > Brave Rewards<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 2:<\/strong> Here, scroll down to find the Auto-Contribute section. <\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 3: <\/strong>Turn off the toggle for Auto Contribute<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAfter turning off the toggle, the Brave browser will no longer auto contribute rewards for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>3. Remove Brave Earnings <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nAs mentioned earlier, the rewards from the Brave browser arrive as a crypto token called “BAT” – Basic Attention Token. It is credited to you for the private ads you pay ‘attention’ to while browsing the web. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let us go about resetting or removing the earned Brave rewards:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 1<\/strong>: Go to the Brave Rewards page<\/strong> from the previous steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 2: <\/strong>On the right, click on Manage your Wallet<\/strong> – as shown in the screenshot below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 3:<\/strong> Once the popup appears, switch to the Reset<\/strong> tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 4:<\/strong> Click on Reset<\/strong> again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 5:<\/strong> Finally, click OK<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nAfter clicking Reset<\/strong>, all your rewards will be PERMANENTLY LOST<\/strong>. All the other settings, such as private ads and auto contribute, will be turned off as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nAs shown above, all the rewards are reset, and the Brave Wallet now has 0 earnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
