# How to Stake KAVA with Keplr

### **Step 1: Setting Up Your Keplr Wallet Account**

* Visit [Keplr's website](https://www.keplr.app/) to start.
* Download the Keplr wallet extension for Google Chrome or choose the mobile app for iOS or Android.
* In the Google Chrome extension, open the wallet from the extensions tab and select "Create new account."
* Choose a mnemonic seed (12 or 24 words), note it down safely, then create a username and password.
* Re-enter the Mnemonic Seed to finish setting up your account in Keplr Wallet.

### **Step 2: Depositing KAVA in Your Wallet**

* Access your Keplr account using the password you created.

* Note that you can start by earning some KAVA on [**Final Autoclaim**](https://autofaucet.dutchycorp.space/), that's a free way to get your first staking bag without buying anything.

### **Step 3: Staking Your KAVA**

* Go to the [**SpaceStake Delegation link**](https://wallet.keplr.app/chains/kava?modal=validator\&chain=kava_2222-10\&validator_address=kavavaloper1hj99pyu4pyun8p22pyd8nu5v5g2rdd2l0d5c5z),  this will redirect you to Keplr website.
* Click on "Stake" button.
* Enter the amount of KAVA you wish to stake and click “Stake” again.
* Confirm the transaction on Keplr by clicking on the "Approve." button
* Your staking status and rewards can now be monitored.

### **Step 4: Automatically Restake Your KAVA staking rewards**

**Our validator is compatible with automatic restaking system via REStake  (**[**restake.app**](https://restake.spacestake.tech/kava/kavavaloper1hj99pyu4pyun8p22pyd8nu5v5g2rdd2l0d5c5z)**).**

**By enabling restaking, all your KAVA rewards from staking will be automatically delegated to your staking balance once you reach the minimum required reward (0.5 KAVA).**

REStake only re-delegates SpaceStake's accrued rewards and tries not to touch your balance.

**How to enable Restaking:**

* Go to the [**SpaceStake Restaking link**](https://restake.spacestake.tech/kava/kavavaloper1hj99pyu4pyun8p22pyd8nu5v5g2rdd2l0d5c5z)**,** this will redirect you to the restaking pag&#x65;**.**
* Click the "**Enable REStake**" Button

* Set the expiry date, after this date, the system will not be able to automatically delegate your rewards anymore.

* Click the "Enable REStake" Button, and sign the transaction on your wallet.

At this step, you must see your grant status as "**Active**", that mean you successfully enabled restaking, congratulation!&#x20;

Each 4 hours, we will check if your staking rewards are higher than 0.5 KAVA, if yes, your rewards will be automatically re-delegated, so you will earn more.
