# How to join a round?

### Manually

* Open the Active Round page, click “Join now” button, set amount, and click “Deposit”
* In the 1st time, you must “Enable” by approving smart contact to spend your tokens.
* In the 1st time you join a round, your amount must greater than or equal minimum joining amount. You can deposit multiple times in a round. Since the 2nd time, minimum joining amount is not required.<br>

### Automatically (Recommend)

Just deposit tokens to Auto Pool, set your joining amount. In the next rounds, your tokens will be transferred from your balance in Auto Pool to join the round automatically.

By using Auto Pool, you will get the maximum tickets as explaining in our formula [here](/lottery-game/how-to-calculate-number-of-players-tickets-in-a-round.md).
