Add Funds To Your Account
For adding tokens, users need to first set up a wallet. Each wallet setup requires you to provide a wallet password, and a keycard file will get downloaded which contains the activation code that is needed for wallet activation.
Here are the different methods using which you can buy digital assets:
Buy Bitcoin With Debit/Credit Visa/MasterCard or Digital Cash
Users are required to activate the Bitcoin wallet before buying Bitcoin. Kindly note that buying tokens using your card or bank account requires the users to undergo an identity verification process (KYC – know-your-customer) as per the PlasmaPay policy.
As we have mentioned earlier, each level requires you to pass through an identity verification process. Also using any particular application requires the users to belong to a certain level.
After wallet activation, the following application is unlocked.
