# Split Tokens
> Convert pUSD into outcome token pairs
**Splitting** converts pUSD collateral into a full (position) set of outcome tokens. For every \$1 pUSD you split, you receive 1 Yes token and 1 No token.
```
$100 pUSD → 100 Yes tokens + 100 No tokens
```
## Prerequisites
Before splitting, ensure you have:
1.**pUSD balance** on Polygon
2.**pUSD approval** for the CTF contract to spend your tokens
3.**Condition ID** of the market — the condition must already be prepared on the CTF contract (via `prepareCondition`)
<Note>
If the partition is trivial, invalid, or refers to more slots than the
condition is prepared with, the transaction will revert.
</Note>
## How It Works
1. You approve the CTF contract to spend your pUSD
2. You call `splitPosition()` with the amount and market details
3. The CTF contract transfers pUSD from your wallet and mints both outcome tokens
The operation is atomic — if any step fails, the entire transaction reverts.
