How to Pay With Crypto: A Beginner's Checkout Guide

Paying with crypto is quick once you know the three rules: use the exact amount, use the right network, and include the memo when one is required.

Step by step

Choose the item, pick the cryptocurrency and network you want to pay with, and you will receive a payment address and an exact amount. Send that amount from your wallet or exchange.

Rule 1: send the exact amount

Sending less than the invoice amount results in an incomplete payment. If your exchange deducts a withdrawal fee, send a bit more so the full amount arrives.

Rule 2: use the right network

The same coin can exist on several networks (for example USDT on TRON, TON or Ethereum). Always send on the network shown on the invoice. Funds sent on the wrong network may be lost.

Rule 3: include the memo or tag if shown

Some coins need a memo/tag together with the address. If the invoice shows one, you must include it or the payment may not be credited.

How long does it take?

Delivery starts once the network confirms your payment. This usually takes from under a minute up to a few minutes depending on the coin and network congestion. Invoices stay valid for about an hour.

Frequently asked questions

What if I paid the wrong amount?

Contact support with your payment ID. Underpaid invoices can be reviewed and credited to your balance by an admin.

Can I top up a balance and pay later?

Yes. You can deposit to your balance and use it to buy instantly without waiting for network confirmations.
