# How To Stake Tetreum (TET)

This guide explains how to stake TET tokens through the official Tetreum dApp.

Staking allows users to lock their TET tokens for a selected period and receive fixed rewards when the staking term is completed.

## Before You Start

Make sure you have the following:

* A registered Tetreum account
* A Web3 wallet such as MetaMask, Trust Wallet, or a WalletConnect-compatible wallet
* TET tokens in your wallet
* A small amount of BNB on BNB Smart Chain for network fees

Recommended gas balance: approximately **0.001–0.003 BNB**.

Network: **BNB Smart Chain**\
Chain ID: **56**

### Choose a Staking Pool

Select the staking pool that best fits your preferred lock period and reward rate.

| Pool   | Lock Period | Fixed Reward |
| ------ | ----------: | -----------: |
| Pool 1 |     30 days |           5% |
| Pool 3 |     90 days |          20% |
| Pool 6 |    180 days |          50% |

Rewards are fixed and are distributed after the selected staking period is completed.

1. Click **Approve**.
2. Confirm the approval request in your wallet.

4. Confirm the staking transaction in your wallet.

Once the transaction is confirmed on BNB Smart Chain, your staking position will become active.

To withdraw:
