# Deploy your vault

Lagoon allows curators to deploy and manage vaults permissionlessly. Vaults can be created directly through the Lagoon interface.

{% hint style="info" %}
Before deploying a vault, curators should understand how asynchronous deposits and withdrawals work, how valuation is provided, and how roles are assigned. These choices define how the vault will operate in practice and should be considered before launch.
{% endhint %}

### Before you deploy

Before deploying a vault, make sure you have defined:

* the chain where the vault will be deployed. You can fin the list [here](https://docs.lagoon.finance/resources/networks-and-addresses).
* the vault admin, curator, valuation provider, and other required roles
* the valuation method and settlement frequence
* the access model, including whether whitelisting is required
* the custody and execution setup that will manage the strategy
