# How to buy PEM

PEM is the token at the center of PembRock, unlocking access to a greater number of features and giving you more chances to profit.

With PEM, you can:

* Farm PEM pairs for high APY. 
* Lend PEM for stable APY. 
* Stake PEM for a share in protocol profit. 
* Access lending rewards as an additional bonus for funding liquidity pools. 
* Gain governance rights to help steer the direction of the platform.

### **How to Buy PEM**

PembRock Finance only launched recently, with our token listed on the NEAR DEXes [Ref Finance](https://www.ref.finance/), [Spin](https://spin.fi/), and [Tonic](https://app.tonic.foundation/); however, as we hit the remaining milestones of our [roadmap](https://docs.pembrock.finance/roadmap), PEM will be made available across more decentralized exchanges on NEAR and other blockchains, as well as leading centralized exchanges. We will update this page as new listings occur.
