    There are 2 main methods to buy cryptocurrency via Freewallet: you can buy crypto through the widget above and you can buy crypto inside the wallet. Below you can see instructions on how to do this for each version.

How to buy cryptocurrency in the web wallet

In this case, Freewallet will be the wallet used by default. For the web version, all you need to do is to log into the wallet, go to the “Buy with a card” tab, select the cryptocurrency you want to buy (BTC, ETH, LTC, etc.), select the currency you are going to pay for it with (USD, EUR, etc.), and enter the amount.

After you click “Buy”, you’ll be redirected to the page of the payment provider, where you will need to go through the verification steps and enter your card details in order to proceed with the payment.

How to buy cryptocurrency in the mobile multicurrency wallet

The process is basically the same as for the web version, except that the tab is simply called “Buy” here instead of “Buy with a card”.

How to buy cryptocurrency in mobile single wallets

In mobile single wallets, such as XRP wallet or Tron wallet, you can buy the default coin of the wallet. Just click the “Buy” tab to enter the sum and proceed with verification and payment. As we said earlier, in this case the default payment provider will be Simplex.

How to buy cryptocurrency through the widget

If you want to buy crypto through the widget above, all you need to do is to select the currency, enter the amount, and enter your cryptocurrency wallet address. After you click “Continue”, you will be redirected to Simplex, our payment provider, where you’ll be able to enter your card details and proceed with the payment.
