# What's the difference between the Pool Wallet and Validator Wallet?

Pool Wallet = If you want to join the pool, you'd send PLS to the Pool Wallet.

Validator Wallet = As the validators produce rewards (in PLS), the rewards get sent to the Validator wallet. DO NOT send any funds to the Validator wallet.

When PLS moves from the Pool Wallet to the Validator Wallet, MAFIA token gets minted and distributed to those that added to the pool, otherwise funds get returned.
