Getting Started
Welcome to JPool! This guide walks you through everything you need to start staking SOL and earning rewards.
INFO
We keep a transparent up to date list of fees on our info page. In case of any fee changes, we will announce them in advance.
New to liquid staking?
Get familiar with the essentials first: JSOL and APY, using JSOL in DeFi, and how rewards accrue.
Set up a wallet
To interact with JPool, you need a Solana-compatible wallet. Here are the most popular options:
Phantom
The most popular Solana wallet, available as a browser extension and mobile app.
Solflare
A dedicated Solana wallet with advanced features, available as a browser extension and mobile app.
Once your wallet is set up, fund it with SOL (you can buy SOL on any major exchange and transfer it to your wallet address).
Choose how to stake
JPool offers five ways to stake to suit different needs. Pick the one that aligns with your goals, or compare them side by side:
Liquid Staking
Effortless staking through the Smart Delegation Engine. You receive JSOL and keep full liquidity.
Native Staking
Classic Solana staking with no liquid token. The simplest, lowest risk option.
Smart Staking
Earn top validator campaign rewards automatically. JPool routes your stake to the highest-paying campaigns while your JSOL stays liquid.
Direct Staking
Stake directly to a validator of choice, bind existing JSOL, and earn incentive rewards from active campaigns.
Leveraged Staking
Amplify your yield using flash loans, at the cost of increased risk. For advanced users.
Not sure which to pick? Start with Liquid Staking. It's the simplest way to earn rewards.
Once you've staked, you can track your active positions and rewards anytime in your Portfolio.
Extra opportunities
Go beyond staking and explore additional ways to earn and engage with the JPool ecosystem:
