How to deposit USDT to MEXC using your bank card

3.1. Before you buy $WIFI, you will need to deposit USDT. Go to the Wallets menu in the lower right corner and click on the Fiat button.

  • Recommended - Buy directly from MEXC with your bank card

  • Buy using P2P from verified sellers

  • Buy using Third Party provider

3.4. Select how much you’d like to purchase and press the Buy USDT button.

3.5. The purchased USDT will be transferred to your account within a few minutes.

Congratulations on buying USDT! In the next part you will learn how you can buy $WIFI using USDT.

Buying $WIFI using the MEXC spot trading panel

💡 What’s spot trading? In spot trading, you buy a stock or a cryptocurrency with your own money and wait for it to rise in value. Other ways to trade are when you buy or sell something for a future price or date, or when you borrow money to trade more than you have. Spot trading is safer and easier than other ways to trade, but it also makes less money and takes more time.

4.1. Please open the MEXC Trade panel.

4.2. Then press the MX/USDT button and type “WIFI” in the search bar. You will see the WIFI/USDT trading pair.

4.3. Here you can select how much you’d like to pay for 1 $WIFI, and how much $WIFI you’d like to purchase. In our case, we are spending 100 USDT to purchase 1956 $WIFI tokens. To place the buying order, press the Buy WIFI button.

4.4. Your order will appear in the Open Orders section below. Usually, it takes several minutes to find a seller and complete the $WIFI purchase. You will receive a notification from the WiFi Map App once the purchase is complete.

💡 If your order remains open after 10 minutes or longer, we recommend you Cancel the order using the button in the bottom-right corner and place a new order by repeating the previous step.

4.5. Now go back to the Assets menu in the bottom right corner. As your order gets filled, your $WIFI balance will grow. Congratulations on your purchase of $WIFI tokens!
