# Deposit & Earn

### What You’ll Need

* A wallet (e.g., MetaMask, Phantom, Rabby)
* Stablecoins (USDC or USDT)
* Access to [Zivoe's App](https://app.zivoe.com/)

***

### How To Start Earning

#### 1.  Launch App & Connect Wallet

Head over to the [Deposit](https://app.zivoe.com/) page of Zivoe's app. Click the "Connect Wallet" button and connect  with your web3 wallet (e.g., MetaMask, Phantom, Rabby).

#### 2.  Deposit Stablecoins

Locate the deposit window and select the stablecoin you want to deposit (USDC or USDT). Then input an amount and click the "Deposit" button. This will create a transaction for you to sign in your web3 wallet. 

After signing, check your wallet balance. You now have vault tokens (zVLT)!

#### 3.  Track Yield Daily

After depositing, head over to the "Portfolio" Page to track your earnings. Your vault tokens (zVLT) go up in value as borrowers pay interest back to the vault.

#### 4.  Redeem To Claim Yield

When you are ready, you can redeem your vault tokens (zVLT) to claim back the stablecoins you initially deposited, plus the yield you've earned. You can redeem directly from [Zivoe](https://app.zivoe.com/) or sell your tokens on a DEX such as Uniswap using the swap page on our dApp.
