Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending `.md` to page URLs; this page is available as [Markdown](https://docs.maple.finance/maple-institutional-for-lenders/withdrawal-process.md). # Withdrawal Process Withdrawals from Maple are facilitated via a queue-based Withdrawal Manager. **Queue-based Withdrawals** Queue-based withdrawals are processed in a first-in, first-out process as liquidity becomes available. Lenders who request a withdrawal in a queue-based pool will make one transaction to be added to the withdrawal queue. The Maple Direct team processes withdrawals, and the lent funds are sent directly to the Lenders' wallet(s), not requiring them to execute another transaction. Currently, withdrawals are processed on average in less than 24 hours. You can reduce or cancel a pending withdrawal request before it is processed; your LP shares are returned to your wallet when you do so. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.maple.finance/maple-institutional-for-lenders/withdrawal-process.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
