# How to borrow

Hashstack allows you to borrow up to 3 times the value of the collateral provided.

Let’s take a look at how we can borrow from the protocol:

1. On the Dashboard screen, you will see a “Borrow\*”\* button next to the assets of Hashstack’s primary markets. Click on the button.

2. Once the pop-up box appears, then you can borrow the asset by providing collateral. After choosing the MCP, click on “Borrow” button.

{% hint style="info" %}
The Borrowing APR (i.e., the interest you need to pay annually) will be visible at the bottom of the popup.

*Borrowing has 2 commitment periods:*

* *None - for flexible MCP*
* *1 month*
  {% endhint %}

3. Choose the token for the collateral, the collateral amount, MCP and borrow amount. Then press on the “borrow” button.
