Purchase A Treasury Bill On ApeSwap
*ApeSwap’s Treasury Bills allow users to access tokens at a discount in exchange for their liquidity provider (LP) tokens. Each Treasury Bill is a unique NFT that represents the output tokens (BANANA or partner project tokens), which vest over a certain amount of time.*
1. Head over to and choose the **AXN-USDC** Bill
1. *Depending on the discount rate you might see a warning from ApeSwap. Click on Continue to proceed anyway*
2. To buy a treasury bill you need the AXN-USDC LP in your wallet
1. Either create the LP **manually** with half $AXN and half $USDC here
2. Or use the ApeSwap **ZAP** feature to create the LP with one single transaction
3. Enter the amount you want to spend and **enable** the Jungle Bills farm
4. Click on **Buy** to get the treasury bill
1. *You now own a Treasury Bill. The applicable NFT will show up in your wallet, and output tokens will begin vesting over the amount of time shown on the bill.*
2. *Once you own a Treasury Bill, you'll see Claim and View buttons on the Treasury Bills page. You can claim any vested tokens from an individual bill using the Claim button, or you can use the Claim All button at the top right to claim all vested tokens across multiple Bills.*
