# Redeem & Claim Yield

### How To Redeem & Claim Yield

* **Deposit:** After depositing stables into Zivoe, you receive vault tokens (zVLT).
* **Hold:** As yield is earned, your vault tokens (zVLT) increase in value.
* **Redeem:** When you're ready, you can redeem your vault tokens (zVLT) for the stablecoins you initially deposited, plus the yield you've earned.

### Liquidity Venues

#### 1.  Zivoe

Zivoe maintains a portion of its assets in stablecoins to facilitate instant redemptions. You can access this liquidity by connecting your web3 wallet to [Zivoe's dApp](https://app.zivoe.com/), navigating to the “Deposit” page, and selecting the “Redeem” tab. Note that redemptions are subject to liquidity availability.

#### 2.  Secondary Markets (launching soon...)

In addition to redeeming directly through Zivoe, you can also trade your vault tokens (zVLT) on secondary markets such as Uniswap and Curve. A “Swap” page is available in [Zivoe’s dApp](https://app.zivoe.com/swap), allowing you to easily access secondary-market liquidity.
