# Subscription Discounts

One of the most immediate benefits of staking MSIG tokens is access to **subscription discounts**. By locking tokens in the vote-escrow system, holders can reduce service subscription costs by up to 50%.

**The discount level depends on two factors:**

1. How many tokens are locked
2. How long the staking commitment lasts

Once tokens are locked, the discount rate remains **fixed for the full stake duration**, protecting stakers from any changes to the discount structure during the commitment period.
