PoolTogether is a decentralized and open source protocol for Prize-Linked Savings, or else: a savings account with super powers. It is controlled by the community of POOL token holders. The protocol is:

Provably fair

Prize draws at PoolTogether are transparent: anyone can confirm who won, when, and why.

Globally accessible

The protocol empowers everyone to save. It offers a level playing field where every user enjoys the same conditions.

Fully non-custodial

No one but you has access to your deposited funds. PoolTogether is non-custodial, meaning users can redeem their money from the pool at any time.

Open-source & secure

The protocol is made up of computer software: smart contracts living on the blockchain. The code is open-source for everyone to verify and validate. On top of that PoolTogether undergoes regular audits.

Decentralized

PoolTogether is user-owned and user-driven. Control over the protocol rests in the hands of the community holding the POOL token. Find out more about governance
