One of the most important operations to perform on the xend finance defi protocol is withdrawal of your savings and return on investment (ROI). This article will show you how to perform this operation.

There are three(3) different withdrawal operations to perform on the Xend finance protocol namely:

· Cooperative cycle withdrawal.

PERSONAL SAVINGS WITHDRAWAL:

On the personal savings dashboard, the amount withdrawable from your personal savings is the Share Balance.

To withdraw from your share balance,

  1. Click on the drop-down card and select the percentage of your share balance you want to withdraw. You can also type in the amount manual inside the box.
  2. Click Withdraw.
  3. A MetaMask modal pops-up for you to authorize the operation and pay the necessary gas fees, confirm the transaction from the metamask pop-up modal that comes out after clicking the Withdraw button.
  4. If the withdrawal was successful, a “Successful Withdrawal” notification pops out at the top corner of your screen to confirm that the transaction was successful.
  5. If the transaction was not successful, a “something went wrong” notification will pop-up at the top of your screen. To resolve this, check that:

· Your metamask wallet is connected to your Xend finance network and has not timed out. If it has timed out, re-input your metamask password on the metamask modal.

· The amount you want to withdraw is equal to the amount in your personal savings net on transaction fees.

6. Try the process again. The video below explains the process.

Two types of withdrawals can be made from an Esusu cycle and they are: Withdrawal of Return on Investment(ROI) and Withdrawal of Capital invested. On the Xend Finance protocol, you must first withdraw your ROI before you can withdraw you Capital.
