# Lava Pools (Pools)

### What is a Lava Pool?

Using a magma pool is the easiest way to earn free tokens on FlameSwap. Stake Flame and get tokens for free! It's that simple.&#x20;

In addition, there are some special magma pools that allow you to stake other tokens besides Flame!

#### What is the difference between flexible staking and lock-up staking?&#x20;

"**Flexible staking**" allows users to have a certain degree of freedom: during the period of staking Flame and receiving rewards, they can cancel the staking at any time.

"**Lock-up staking**" provides users with an option to maximize their Flame quantity income: by locking Flame for a period of time, the income can be multiplied to obtain higher income. Users can freely choose the lock-up time. Compared with the income of flexible pledge, the income of lock-up pledge will increase linearly.
