Four steps.About 15 minutes.

A wallet is just an app that holds your crypto. We use Exodus — it does the buying and the sending in one place.

1. 1

   Install Exodus

   Search “Exodus” on the App Store or Play Store. The publisher is Exodus Movement, Inc.

2. 2

   Tap Create Wallet

   No email, no account. It builds a wallet on your phone in seconds.

3. 3

   Write down your recovery phrase

   Twelve words, on paper. It is the only way back in if you lose your phone — nobody can restore it for you, not Exodus and not us.

4. 4

   Switch the currency to AUD

   Settings → Currency → AUD. Do this before you buy anything. It is the one mistake on this page that costs real money.

You buy with your normal bank card through Banxa, the payment provider built into Exodus.

1. 1

   Pick Bitcoin or Litecoin

   Tap the coin on the Exodus home screen, then Buy. Both work with us — Litecoin usually costs less in network fees.

2. 2

   Check it says AUD, then enter the amount

   Enter your order total, plus a couple of dollars so network fees don't leave you short.

3. 3

   Verify your ID

   Banxa asks for your email, address, a photo of your licence or passport, and a selfie. That is standard for buying crypto anywhere in Australia — it is Banxa's requirement, and we never see any of it.

4. 4

   Pay with your card

   Debit cards are accepted far more often than credit. If it declines, don't retry the same card — see below.

5. 5

   Wait for it to land

   Usually a few minutes, occasionally up to thirty. The balance appears in Exodus when it's done.

Place your order first — the checkout gives you an address and an exact amount. Then send from Exodus.

1. 1

   Copy the address from your order

   Use the exact address the checkout shows you. It is different for every order.

2. 2

   Open the coin in Exodus and tap Send

   Paste the address into the top field. A green tick means the address is valid.

3. 3

   Enter the exact amount

   Use the crypto figure from the checkout, not the dollar one. If your wallet limits the decimals, hit Max or All and send the balance rather than rounding down.

4. 4

   Slide to send

   Done. Nothing can be reversed after this, so give the address one last look.

Your order confirms itself as soon as the network sees the payment.

1. 1

   Confirmation email

   Usually within minutes, sometimes up to thirty while the network confirms. You don't need to do a thing.

2. 2

   Nothing after an hour?

   Message us with your order number and we'll trace it. A payment on the blockchain is always findable — it is not lost.
