# I want to open a pool, how do?

We all float, and when you open a pool in our Swamp you'll float too.

So you're saying cool man, but how exactly do I set this whole thing up with you? \

With bedside manner and a personal touch, after filling out the application form either on the [website ](https://dogefiona.dog/)or from the [direct link](https://tally.so/r/wbjEBE),  you get into[ contact ](/whitepaper/welcome-to-dogefiona.md)with one of the project owners and the ball starts rolling. \

Once you've applied and contacted us we'll begin the process of creating your staking pool, walking you through the needed steps. Our ETA for pool creation tends to be 1-2 days depending on whether we have pools in queue waiting to go live.
