AAVE 5 offers 4 providers updated 27 August 2026 at 10:26
Compare Aave staking rewards Compare 5 AAVE offers from 4 providers, with rates up to 4%. The distinction matters: Aave supports on-chain protocol staking, but its rewards do not come from a network paying validators. Note that the 4% rate is a lending product, not staking. The highest tracked staking rate is 0.50% through Bitvavo.
Aave rates range from 0.50% to 4%, a difference of 3.50 percentage points. The median across the 5 offers is 3%, while Nexo has the highest listed return.
Aave is not a Proof of Stake network. You can lock AAVE on-chain, but rewards come from the Aave protocol. This differs from both network staking and lending through a provider: you depend on the protocol's code and funding model.
Compare 5 Aave offers from 4 providers in one table. Each row combines the rate with its product type and conditions, so you can see whether a higher return comes from staking, a protocol or a lending product before choosing a provider.
Enter your deposit at the top right of the table. The calculation applies minimum and maximum deposit limits, so it reflects the amount that can actually earn a return.

What would a 4% rate mean for your Aave position? Enter an amount of AAVE or a value in euros to compare the estimated return from each offer. The calculation assumes the rate and coin price remain unchanged.
You lock AAVE on-chain, but a validator network does not pay the reward. It comes from the Aave protocol, so you face smart contract risk and depend on that protocol's funding model.
Aave has no on-chain network staking: the network does not pay rewards to holders. Every displayed rate is funded by a provider, so the network staking category does not apply and counterparty risk becomes central.
Your coins help secure a network and the reward comes from that network. The main additional risks are slashing and the failure of any company holding your coins in custody. More about on-chain staking.
You deposit into a protocol and receive a tradable token representing the staked position. This adds smart contract, liquidity and depeg risk to the underlying staking risk. More about liquid staking.
This is not staking. You lend your coins to a provider, which pays interest from its own resources. If the provider fails, you may be an unsecured creditor and could lose the full deposit. More about lending.

We collect rates directly from providers through their APIs or official websites and check them daily. Every rate shows when it was last checked. Providers can change terms without notice, so confirm the current rate before depositing.
Crypto returns are never guaranteed. On-chain staking can involve slashing, liquid staking adds smart contract and depeg risk, and lending can expose your entire deposit if a provider fails. In every category, a fall in the coin price can exceed the rewards earned.
