# Using the website

## Phase 1 — inside the Vault

During Phase 1, the website is the **only** place to trade.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Connect your wallet

Connect your wallet to the website.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Approve

Sign a one-time, gas-free signature that lets the website authorize your trades. It moves no funds.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Buy or sell on the curve

Enter an amount and confirm the transaction in your wallet.

The live chart shows the curve climbing toward graduation as the Vault fills.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Each purchase has a size limit during Phase 1. If you enter more than a single purchase allows, the contract buys up to the limit and **refunds the difference to your wallet** in the same transaction — you never lose the excess.
{% endhint %}

## Phase 2 — the open market

Once the token graduates, you no longer need the website to trade — it trades everywhere, through any exchange or bot on Robinhood Chain. You will only come back to the website to **claim** your redistribution share (see [Claiming your share](broken://pages/dd15cb90709bc702d8eb0365c0b16aedc4c3e590)).

## A note for bots and integrations

After graduation, the token is tradeable through standard routers. Because a fee applies to certain trades, integrations must use the **fee-on-transfer-supporting** swap functions, exactly as they would for any tokenized fee. This is handled automatically by the common trading bots.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://rptotocol.gitbook.io/robinhood-protocol/using-the-website.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
