# Borrow

**Summer.fi  Borrow** is the main entry point for users to lend their funds and borrow others. 

With an intuitive and world-class UX that’s constantly evolving to suit users needs, the process to borrow is seamless. 

**Benefits:**

* **Extra liquidity:** Users gain access to extra liquidity if they choose to borrow DAI; and since Dai is a stablecoin, this liquidity can be used for trading, spending, or saving; all use cases are available. 
* **Multiple collaterals:** Different collateral types, rates and ratios are suitable for multiple risk profiles. 
* **Flexible repayment schedules:** There are no repayment schedules, no minimum payments, and no credit history requirements. Users can repay at their own pace as long as their Vault is properly collateralized

**Risks:**

Users need to be properly [collateralized](broken://pages/URTHmeIZkvxpVwiohkTG) to avoid liquidations. Liquidations are the forceful sale of collateral to cover the borrowed funds and carry a penalty. You can learn more about [liquidations](broken://pages/URTHmeIZkvxpVwiohkTG) and how to[ assess your Vault risk](broken://pages/CZcBIDnIZkyzCF82Irjy) by following the links.
