# TEDDY Staking

### How does staking work in Teddy Cash?  <a href="#how-does-staking-work-in-liquity" id="how-does-staking-work-in-liquity"></a>

To start staking all you need to do is deposit your TEDDY token to the Teddy Cash staking contract. Once done you will start earning a pro rata share of the borrowing and redemption fees in TSD and AVAX.

### How much will my staked TEDDY earn?  <a href="#how-much-will-my-staked-lqty-earn" id="how-much-will-my-staked-lqty-earn"></a>

Your TEDDY stake will earn a share of the fees equal to your share of the total TEDDY staked, at the instant the fee occurred.

### Is there a lock-up period? <a href="#is-there-a-lock-up-period" id="is-there-a-lock-up-period"></a>

No, you can withdraw your staked funds at any time.

### Can I stake TSD?  <a href="#can-i-stake-lusd" id="can-i-stake-lusd"></a>

You can only stake TEDDY tokens. TSD can be deposited into the [Stability Pool](/stability-pool-and-liquidations.md) instead.

### Are staked TEDDY tokens used to backstop the system (like Maker) or for governance?  <a href="#are-staked-lqty-tokens-used-to-backstop-the-system-like-maker-or-for-governance" id="are-staked-lqty-tokens-used-to-backstop-the-system-like-maker-or-for-governance"></a>

No, staked TEDDY are not used to backstop the Teddy Cash system and are not used for governance as there is no Teddy Cash governance.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
