# Quick Start Guide

## 1. Prerequisites

<table><thead><tr><th width="124.90191650390625">✅</th><th>What you need</th><th>Notes</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Wallet</td><td>MetaMask, Rabby, Coinbase Wallet, WalletConnect v2, or Core</td><td>Hardware wallets supported via MetaMask.</td></tr><tr><td>Network</td><td>Ethereum <strong>or</strong> Avalanche C‑Chain</td><td>Gas token (ETH / AVAX) for fees.</td></tr><tr><td>KYC (Coming Soon)</td><td>Government ID + selfie (≈ 2 min)</td><td>Required once to whitelist your wallet (no U.S. or sanctioned regions).</td></tr><tr><td>USDC Stablecoin</td><td>USDC</td><td>Used to buy USDL.</td></tr></tbody></table>

## 2. Get Whitelisted (Coming Soon)

1. Click **“Verify Wallet”** in the dApp.
2. Complete KYC flow (SumSub).
3. You’ll see a green “Verified” badge once your address is on the on‑chain registry.

After doing this once, you can use Lendr's RWA tokens anywhere in Web3.

*Time: 2–3 minutes*

## 3. Acquire USDL

*Best for first‑time users, no swap fees*

1. Open **Swap** tab or visit your favorite DEX (Uniswap, LFJ).
2. Input USDC amount → Review gas → **Swap**.
3. USDL appears in your wallet. (May need to add contract address to see tokens)

### 4. Stake into an real world asset (RWA) Vault

1. Navigate to **Earn** → choose a vault (e.g., **lsSP500 for Enhanced S\&P 500**).
2. You receive liquid staked RWA (LsRWA) Tokens instantly; yield begins accruing automatically.
3. Click **Deposit**, enter USDL amount.
4. Approve USDL (first time) → Confirm deposit.

### 5. Use LsRWAs in DeFi

1. Use LsRWA tokens in DeFi protocols/integrations to generate additional yield.&#x20;

### 6. Monitor Returns

* **Dashboard** shows live portfolio value and APY.
* Yield is auto‑compounded, no claim button needed.

### 7 Withdraw

1. Click **Withdraw** on your vault position.
2. Confirm amount → transaction queues your USDL.
3. After **7 days**, hit **Claim** to receive USDL returns.

### 8. (Opt.) Stake RWAL to Earn Rewards

1. Buy RWAL on the launch DEX/CEX.
2. Deposit to **x**RWAL vault.
3. Earn a proportional cut of performance fees—auto‑compounded into RWAL.

*Unstake anytime; no lockup.*

### 9 Stay Secure

* Double‑check contract addresses (see *Contract Addresses* page).
* Never share seed phrases—support will **never** ask.
* Bookmark the official site: [**https://lendr.fi**](https://lendr.fi)

### Troubleshooting

<table><thead><tr><th width="217.57861328125">Issue</th><th>Fix</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>“KYC not verified”</td><td>Ensure wallet matches the address you submitted.</td></tr><tr><td>Transaction stuck</td><td>Check gas; try “Speed Up” or cancel and retry with higher fee.</td></tr><tr><td>Withdrawal timer reset</td><td>Each new withdraw restarts the 7‑day clock—queue full amount once to avoid resets.</td></tr></tbody></table>
