# Claiming Yield

Due to the the yield being earned through the appreciation value of aUSDC rather that a claim on rewards, it could make it challenging for users to manually calculate and claim their yield from orbit Earn. For this reason, Orbit has made it easy for users to claim just their yield without the need for any manual calculations.

Users can opt to claim their yield as USDC on the manage assets page. Once claimed, the system automatically calculates the amount of yield earned generated in comparison to the users' total deposits and subtracts the correct amount of aUSDC equivalent to this earned yield. It is then withdrawn to USDC and mad available to the user.

From the user experience side, this just resembles a once-click rewards claim, although they will have less aUSDC in their wallet after the process is complete.&#x20;
