# How to boost your token's pool

{% hint style="success" %}
Since **Jan 26, 2026,** Boosts are available only for [CPMM v2 pools](/en/liquidity/pools/types.md#claimable-fees-pool-cpmm-v2). Learn more about Boosts in [this section](/en/liquidity/boosts.md).
{% endhint %}

1. To boost specific pool, go to **Pool summary** page, either from [Pools](https://dedust.io/pools), or from [Portfolio](https://dedust.io/portfolio) -> ***Liquidity*** section. In our example let’s boost [**DUST / USDT**](#user-content-fn-1)[^1] pool.
2. Find link for boost creation in ***FAQ*** section of the pool's page.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you can't find the desired pool, one or both tokens may be [not in the whitelist](/en/trade/swap/imported.md). Make sure that you've [imported](/en/launch/whitelist/non-whitelisted.md) them on DeDust.

3. **Boost a pool** page has three tabs. In ***New boost*** tab, choose a coin and enter the total amount of rewards you’d like to distribute among pool's liquidity providers. And set the boost duration.

{% hint style="info" %}
Default boost duration is 1 to 14 days, with $5 / day minimum amount (equivalent).

Typically for boosting a pool, you can add rewards with both its tokens and TON, DUST, USDT.
{% endhint %}

4. Press "**Boost**" once all is set.
5. Check your boost conditions and press "**Confirm**". Then sign the transaction in your wallet app.

{% hint style="success" %}
Launching a Boost is free. You pay only the Network fee and the boost amount itself.\
The [*Network fee*](#user-content-fn-2)[^2] is fixed and doesn't exceed 0.25 TON.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Setting a boost, consider the following:

* You can launch only 1 boost with 1 token at a time. Instead of launching another new boost with the same token, consider options to [***Extend***](#user-content-fn-3)[^3] or [***Increase***](#user-content-fn-4)[^4] budget for existing one, on corresponding tabs.
* Since CPMM v2 pools don't assume LP[^5] tokens (or NFT) handling, unlike in previous boosts version, you don't need to worry about rewards distribution to other addresses, different from liquidity providers' wallets. Even if their liquidity is permanently locked.
* Boost rewards on locked liquidity are distributed to wallet address wherefrom liquidity was deposited.&#x20;
* For tokens launched on [**Uranus**](https://x1000.finance/launches/new), token creators' share of boost rewards is distibuted to their [x1000 trading wallet](https://help.x1000.finance/trading/x1000-trading-wallet) address. It'll be available for claim in [**Rewards** section on x1000](https://x1000.finance/rewards), in ***Created tokens*** tab.
  {% endhint %}

Once boost amount is credited to a smart contract, it instantly starts distributing rewards to pool's liquidity providers. In real-time.

In a while after setting a boost, all the details on its duration and rewards appear in the bottom of pool's page, in ***Boosts*** section. Learn [how to see the pool is boosted](/en/liquidity/boosts/boosted_pool.md).

The pool will be also marked with a bright lightning icon next to its name on [Pools](https://dedust.io/pools) page and will be available for easy filtering using *'Boosted'* button.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Once the boost is created, your tokens are placed into a smart contract in the blockchain. The contract cannot return your funds if you performed this action accidentally. It will not be possible to cancel.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Boost is a pool incentive, distributing tokens as bonuses to liquidity providers, in addition to collected [trading fees from swaps](/en/protocol/fees.md#swap-fee-distribution). This tool is mainly for project founders and token creators. Not a way to earn money on providing liquidity. To earn boost rewards on providing liquidity, learn more about it on [Liquidity deposit](/en/liquidity/deposit.md) page.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
Although the tool is primarily designed to help founders reward their community, Boosts decentralized nature allows anyone to provide rewards and boost a pool. Feel free to support your favorite token.
{% endhint %}
