# How to create a Pod

**Step 1 - Pod Asset**

* Go to the Peapods Finance DApp and click **Create Pod**.
* Choose **Single-Asset** if you’re creating a Pod with one token or select **Index** if you would like to create a Pod with multiple tokens.
* Enter the contract address of the token(s).
* *(Optional)* Enable **Leveraged Volatility Farming (LVF)** by checking the box. This option is available for Single-Asset Pods only.

**Step 2 - Configuration**

* Enter a **name** and **ticker symbol** for your Pod.
* Select the **paired asset** from the drop-down menu. This asset will be used for the Pod’s incentivized Liquidity Pool.

**Step 3 - LVF (Leveraged Volatility Farming)&#x20;*****(Optional)***

* Choose if you would like your Pod to be a **Self-Lending Pod** (default: Yes).
* Select an **Oracle** to track the token’s price:
  * **Uniswap V3 Pool** (enter contract address). You can find this by:
    * Browsing [Uniswap’s Pool Explorer](https://app.uniswap.org/explore/pools/)
    * Checking **Pair Info** on **Dexscreener** or **Dextools**
  * **Chainlink Price Feed** (if available)
* If the **pairing asset** differs from the Oracle’s pairing asset, provide an additional Oracle to track that price using the same methods.

**Step 4 - Fees**

* Adjust fees based on your strategy. Suggested settings vary by asset type.
* **Wrap Fee** – % users pay to enter the Pod (*keeping this low is advised if you want more people to join your Pod*).
* **Unwrap Fee** – % users pay to exit (*can be slightly higher to encourage sticky TVL*).
* **Cooldown Period** – Users can avoid the Unwrap Fee by waiting a set number of days.
* **AMM Buy & Sell Fees** – % taken from all trades, primarily captured from MEV arbitrage.

If you are unsure of which settings to use, we have provided a guide to help you Choose Pod Fee Settings.

**Step 5 - Distribution**

* Set **% of revenue to burn pTKN** (higher = more passive holding incentive, lower = more LP rewards).
* Set **% for Partner Share** (up to 5% of Pod revenue, paid in pTKN, or 0% if not needed).

**Pod Deployment Complete!**\
Once your Pod has been successfully Deployed, you will receive a notification on screen, similar to the one below.

Your Pod will be available to discover on the Volatility Farming page within 60 seconds and you will be able to begin to Wrap into your Pod.
