A contract key is a unique token corresponding to a single contract. Look up contract keys to check their status or to reissue them with updated contact and delivery information.
Reissuance voids the existing key and produces a new one. This allows you to transfer ownership of a contract by sharing its key. The recipient can then reissue it under their own contact and delivery information, voiding the original. There is no way to view the registered information for a given key, so you're not exposing your information by sharing it.
The possible statuses of a contract key are as follows:
Open
An open contract may be reissued with updated contact and delivery information until the start of its delivery period.
Void
This key was used for reissuance and no longer corresponds to a valid contract.
Delivery pending
The delivery month for the contract has begun. Contact and delivery information may no longer be updated. A representative of the San Francisco Onion Futures Company will contact (or has contacted) the registered owner to arrange delivery.
Delivered
The contract has been settled by physical delivery.
Failed delivery
Either we were not able to get in contact with the registered owner, or the owner did not show up to receive delivery. If you believe that this status is incorrect, please email onionfutures@protonmail.com.
Contract lookup and reissuance require JavaScript. With JavaScript enabled, you can see the status of your contracts and reissue them with new delivery information.
