Following the launch of the 8PAY token on BSC, we’ve turned our attention to adding ways to reward and incentivize our growing community. With that in mind, we’re pleased to introduce native staking rewards on the 8Pay platform.

We’re rolling out two forms of staking for 8PAY token holders: single asset and LP. In the case of the former, you can simply lock your 8PAY tokens into the corresponding smart contract to begin earning rewards. With LP staking, you must first provide liquidity for 8PAY-BNB LP or 8PAY-BUSD LP on PancakeSwap and then stake your LP tokens into the smart contract on the 8Pay site.

FAQ:

How can I get the 8PAY tokens needed to join the Single Staking pool ?

In order to join the Single Staking pool you need 8pay tokens in your wallet , you can buy them directly from PancakeSwap following this link.

How can I get the LP tokens needed to join the 8PAY-BNB LP or 8PAY-BUSD LP pools ?

In order to join the 8PAY-BNB LP or 8PAY-BUSD LP pools you need a special token issued in exchange for a provision of liquidity on PancakeSwap , the token is called Liquidity Pool (LP)

Add liquidity to the 8PAY/BNB or 8PAY/BUSD pool on Pancake Swap and start earning rewards, here’s how to go about it:

  1. Get your wallet with 8PAY tokens ready, you can buy 8PAY on Pancakeswap.
  2. Now you can visit the pool section of Pancake Swap (link below)

8PAY-BNB : link Add liquidity to BNB Pool
8PAY-BUSD : link Add liquidity to BUSD Pool

Make sure to have 8PAY and BNB ready with a 50% rate each.
Add 8PAY/BNB (or 8PAY/BUSD) liquidity, just as you would on any other AMM

After this process , you will receive the LP token directly to your wallet , ready to stake into our 8PAY-BNB LP or 8PAY-BUSD LP and enjoy juicy rewards!

Rewards for staking will be allocated at the following rate:

Staking rewards will last for the whole month, giving you plenty of opportunity to utilize your 8PAY tokens while also boosting liquidity for other users. It’s a net win for the 8Pay community, and a means of aligning incentives between all participants as we build out the 8Pay subscription ecosystem.
