## Methods
### amountToUnits
▸ `Protected` **amountToUnits**(`token`, `amount`, `tokenDecimals?`): `Promise`<`string`\>
Converts an amount of tokens to units
#### Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| :------ | :------ | :------ |
| `token` | `string` | The token to convert |
| `amount` | `string` | The amount of tokens to convert |
| `tokenDecimals?` | `number` | The number of decimals of the token |
#### Returns
`Promise`<`string`\>
- The converted amount in units

___
### claim
▸ **claim**<`G`\>(`estimateGas?`): `Promise`<[`ReceiptOrEstimate`](../modules.md#receiptorestimate)<`G`\>\>
Claim fees for `userAddress`
Each call to claim look at a maximum of 50 user veOCEAN points.
For accounts with many veOCEAN related actions, this function
may need to be called more than once to claim all available
fees. In the `Claimed` event that fires, if `claim_epoch` is
less than `max_epoch`, the account may claim again
#### Type parameters
| Name | Type |
| :------ | :------ |
| `G` | extends `boolean` = ``false`` |
#### Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| :------ | :------ | :------ |
| `estimateGas?` | `G` | if True, return gas estimate |
#### Returns
`Promise`<[`ReceiptOrEstimate`](../modules.md#receiptorestimate)<`G`\>\>
#### Defined in
[contracts/ve/VeFeeDistributor.ts:23](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/ocean.js/blob/c99bc5c6/src/contracts/ve/VeFeeDistributor.ts#L23)
___
### claimMany
▸ **claimMany**<`G`\>(`addresses`, `estimateGas?`): `Promise`<[`ReceiptOrEstimate`](../modules.md#receiptorestimate)<`G`\>\>
Make multiple fee claims in a single call
Used to claim for many accounts at once, or to make
multiple claims for the same address when that address
has significant veOCEAN history
#### Type parameters

| :------ | :------ |
| `G` | extends `boolean` = ``false`` |
#### Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| :------ | :------ | :------ |
| `addresses` | `string`[] | array of addresses to claim |
| `estimateGas?` | `G` | if True, return gas estimate |
#### Returns
