A liquidity campaign is relationship-sourced, so launching one runs through the Turtle team rather than a fully self-serve form. This page is a preflight check. Run through it before you open the Client Portal so you are not stopped by a missing agreement, an unfinished diligence review, or terms you have not decided yet. If you already know what a liquidity campaign is, skip ahead to Launch a Liquidity Campaign. If you are new, start with the Liquidity Campaigns overview.

​
Prerequisites

An approved organization in the Client Portal

Your organization must be created and approved in the Client Portal. Creating an org also starts a know-your-business (KYB) check and an integration fee invoice. See Client Portal setup.

A signed master services agreement

A master services agreement (MSA) is signed during org setup, before any liquidity campaign goes live. The commercial terms of a specific liquidity campaign are then settled in a separate statement of work (SOW) at the end of the flow.
If you do not see liquidity campaign submission in the Client Portal, your org is likely not approved yet or the MSA is not signed. Reach out to the Turtle team before going further.

KYB cleared and the integration fee paid

Two gates must clear before a liquidity campaign moves into committee review: KYB clearance through the provider Turtle uses, and payment of the integration fee invoiced at org creation.

An eligible contract type for the target vault

The vault you want to boost must be a contract type Turtle already integrates. If it is not yet supported, the liquidity campaign can still proceed through diligence and terms, but it queues at signing until the integration ships.

​
The diligence gate

Every liquidity campaign is reviewed before it goes live. The Turtle Due Diligence Council (TDC) is an independent body that evaluates the vault and the protocol across technical, operational, financial, and curator risk. The council operates independently of Turtle’s commercial team, so a liquidity campaign can be declined on diligence grounds regardless of the commercial relationship. In parallel, a review committee works through the diligence data you submit and iterates with you until every item is resolved. The liquidity campaign does not advance to a signed SOW until that review is complete.
Where a TDC review has been completed, a written report is published alongside the vault listing. To learn what the council evaluates and how to engage it, see the Turtle Due Diligence Council.

​
Decisions to make before you launch

Have answers to these ready before submission. Each maps to a field or a term you will set during the flow.
The token your protocol will use to fund the boost. The budget you commit in this token is what pays LPs the extra rewards on top of base yield.
How much extra LPs earn, above the vault’s native yield, for the liquidity they contribute. The rate is set during negotiation and funded from your emission budget.
When the liquidity campaign starts and how long it runs. The incentive window begins at campaign go-live, not per individual LP deposit, so qualified TVL is measured from the go-live date forward.
Which vault or vaults the boost applies to. Only deposits into eligible vaults earn the boost and count toward qualified TVL.
How qualified TVL is scoped. The default charges on campaign-specific Turtle TVL (wallets that engaged with Turtle infrastructure for this opportunity), with broader models available where Turtle drives more of the protocol’s growth. This choice changes who counts toward the fee, so settle it before terms. See Pricing for the three models.

​
Commercial terms

A liquidity campaign carries a fee on qualified TVL, charged by reconciling two ledgers (who qualifies, and how much TVL those wallets hold in the target opportunity). The exact rate sits in your SOW, but the model, the qualified-TVL definitions, and the example fee bands are documented on the Pricing page. Read it before negotiating so the terms are not new to you at signing.

​
If your protocol or vault is not yet supported

If your vault’s contract type is not yet integrated, or you are unsure whether your protocol fits, reach out to the Turtle team through the Client Portal. A liquidity campaign can move through diligence and terms while an integration is built, then go live once it ships.
