In this quick guide, you’ll learn how to:
Create a Trust Wallet
Buy crypto directly inside your wallet
Back up your recovery phrase safely
Getting Started 🔐
You only need two things:
1️⃣ A Crypto Wallet
This is where you hold your crypto.
We recommend:
Trust Wallet – best for beginners (mobile)
Trust Wallet is non-custodial, meaning you own your funds, not an exchange.
2️⃣ A Way to Buy Crypto
These services are called on-ramps.
You can buy using:
Credit/debit card
Apple Pay or Google Pay
Bank transfer (where supported)
Wallets connect to trusted providers like:
MoonPay
Transak
Ramp
They accept SGD, USD, and other fiat currencies, and send crypto straight to your wallet.
🟢 STEP 1 – Create Your Wallet on Trust Wallet
Mobile wallet for iOS + Android.
Install Trust Wallet
Open App Store or Google Play
Search “Trust Wallet”
Download the official app (Developer: DApps Platform Inc.)
Create Your Wallet
Tap Create a new wallet
You’ll receive a 12-word recovery phrase
Write it on paper and store securely (never save online)
The recovery phrase is your wallet – if you lose it, you lose access forever
Confirm the words in the app
Set a PIN or biometric lock
Import an Existing Wallet
If you already have one:
Tap I already have a wallet
Choose your network
Enter your 12-word phrase or private key
Done – wallet imported.
🟢 STEP 2 — Buy Crypto Inside the Wallet
Open Trust Wallet → tap BUY
Choose a token:
USDT (recommended)
USDC
ETH or BTC (if preferred, but fees vary)
Select a provider:
Transak – lowest fees
MoonPay – easiest card purchases
Ramp – region dependent
Then:
Enter how much you want to buy
Pay with card/bank/Apple Pay
Complete KYC if requested
Your crypto will arrive directly inside your wallet.
