<figure><img src="/files/5yE37c3NMx9K32natrYn" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Staking in [Start Pools](https://stake.bscstation.finance/#/) lets you earn BSCS or other tokens while you sleep!

It's simpler than farming with BSCS's Farms because unlike the Farms, you only need to stake **one token** to start earning: usually BSCS.

## **Getting started with Start Pool staking**

1\. Go to the Start Pools page [here](https://bscstation.finance/Pools).

3\. Click **Unlock Wallet**.

4\. Choose which Start Pool you want to stake in.

5\. Once you choose a pool, click the **Enable** button. Your wallet will ask you to confirm the action.

8\. Click **Confirm**. Your wallet will ask you to confirm the action.

9\. The Confirm button will change to **"**&#x43;onfirming", then once the transaction is successful, you’ll see your staked amount change and the button will change again.

10\. You should now be able to see details on your Start Pool.

### **Adding and removing BSCS from a pool**

You can easily add more BSCS to a Start Pool, or move some BSCS to a more profitable pool. Here’s how you can move your staked BSCS.

1\. Click the **Unstake** to take some BSCS out of a pool, or the **+** to add more to the pool.

2\. A window will open. If you clicked the **+**, choose the amount you would like to add to the pool. If you clicked the **Unstake,** choose the amount to take out of the pool.

3\. Click **Confirm**.

4\. After a little wait, you'll be able to see your new amount of staked tokens.

### Unstaking fee

If you unstake your funds within 72 hours from staking, the system will charge you an unstaking fee.

BSCS Unstaking Fee is 2%. After 72 hours, you can unstake with no fee. The unstaking fee timer resets back to the start every time you stake more tokens.\ <br>
