# Pool creation and adding rewards

Deploying a smart contract

Any user can create their own staking pool. To do this, go to the [**corresponding page** ](https://jvault.xyz/staking/v2/new_pool)and fill in the necessary information about the staking pool and the periods of unstake (there can be from 1 to 4 in one pool)

Many fields (such as **Min** and **Max deposits**, **Deposit fee**, **Max. TVL**) can be left blank, in this case default values will be used. All mandatory fields are marked with a **cyan asterisk (\*)**.

After filling in all the data, the user can request a transaction to deploy the smart contract of the staking pool by clicking the **‘Deploy pool’** button in the upper right corner and confirm the transaction in their wallet.

Once the transaction is indexed, the user will be able to find the staking pool on the homepage, but it will be in an archived state. In order to make the pool available to everyone, it is necessary to add rewards to it.

Then confirm the transaction to save the token address in the smart contract.
