For newcomers entering the cryptocurrency world, purchasing your first crypto may seem daunting. This comprehensive tutorial demonstrates how to buy Bitcoin (BTC) with USD or EUR on the MEXC platform, offering detailed step-by-step guidance across various deposit methods to help you seamlessly complete your first cryptocurrency transaction.

Preparation

Before purchasing cryptocurrency, complete the following essential steps. First, visit the official MEXC website and sign up for an account using your email or phone number. Second, complete identity verification (KYC), a mandatory requirement for fiat-to-crypto purchases. Finally, prepare your payment method, such as a credit card, bank account, or e-wallet.

1. Quick Buy

Quick Buy is MEXC's most convenient purchasing method, enabling you to complete transactions in just three simple steps. Visit the MEXC Quick Buy page to begin.

Step one: Select your cryptocurrency and amount. Navigate to the "Buy" tab at the top of the page, enter your desired USD amount in the "Spent" field, then select BTC as your target cryptocurrency in the "Received" field. The system automatically calculates the BTC amount you'll receive.

Step two: Choose your payment method. MEXC supports multiple payment options, including Visa and Mastercard credit or debit cards. After selecting your preferred method, the system guides you through the next steps.

Step three: Complete payment and receive your tokens. After verifying your order details, enter your payment card information and complete the verification process. Once the transaction is finalized, the purchased BTC is automatically deposited into your MEXC account. The entire process typically takes just a few minutes.

2. P2P Trading

P2P (peer-to-peer) trading enables direct cryptocurrency purchases from other users with flexible payment options. MEXC's P2P platform features an escrow service ensuring transaction security for both buyers and sellers. To initiate P2P trading, log in to your MEXC account and navigate to the P2P trading page. Select "Buy" on the trading interface, set BTC as your purchase currency, and EUR as your fiat currency.

Browse available sellers to view their offered prices, minimum and maximum transaction limits, and accepted payment methods, including bank transfers, credit cards, or e-wallets. Select a seller meeting your requirements and click "Buy." Enter your desired BTC amount or EUR spending limit, then confirm the order. The seller's BTC is immediately locked in MEXC's escrow account. Follow the payment instructions displayed on the order page and transfer funds through the agreed payment method. After completing payment, click "I have paid" to notify the seller. Once the seller confirms receipt, they release the BTC, which is automatically transferred to your account.

3. Fiat Deposit

Fiat deposit allows you to deposit EUR into your MEXC account first, then purchase BTC on the spot market. This method suits users planning multiple transactions. Log in to your MEXC account, navigate to the "Buy Crypto" page, and select "Fiat Deposit." Choose EUR as your deposit currency, then select an available deposit channel. Available channels may vary by region.

Enter your desired EUR deposit amount and follow the on-screen prompts to complete payment. Once funds arrive, EUR appears in your account balance. Navigate to the spot trading page and search for the BTC/EUR trading pair to purchase Bitcoin directly with EUR.

4. Bank Transfer

Bank transfer is a secure and reliable deposit method ideal for large transactions and often offers lower fees. MEXC supports transfers from both local and international banks. After logging into your MEXC account, navigate to the deposit page and select bank transfer. The system displays MEXC's receiving bank account details, including bank name, account number, SWIFT code, and other necessary information.

Log in to your online banking or visit a bank branch to initiate the transfer using the provided information. Include MEXC's required reference information in the transfer remarks, typically your account ID or specific reference number, enabling MEXC to identify your deposit. Bank transfers typically require 1-3 business days to process, depending on your bank and location. Once funds arrive, use them to purchase BTC on the spot market. Visit the MEXC spot market and locate the appropriate trading pair to complete your purchase.

5. Third-Party Payment

MEXC partners with multiple trusted third-party payment providers, including MoonPay, Banxa, and Mercuryo, offering users diverse payment options. Visit the MEXC Buy Crypto page and select a third-party payment option. Choose your preferred service provider, as each supports different payment methods and regions.

The system redirects you to the checkout page for your selected provider. Enter your desired BTC purchase amount or USD spending limit, select a payment method, and provide the necessary payment information. The provider may require additional identity verification. After completing payment, the purchased BTC is sent to your MEXC account. Third-party payments process quickly but may incur additional service fees, with rates varying by provider.

Next Steps After Buying Cryptocurrency

After successfully purchasing BTC, explore additional opportunities on the MEXC platform. Trade over 2,500 trading pairs on the spot market, or engage in futures trading with up to 500x leverage on selected pairs. Additionally, MEXC's Airdrop+ events offer opportunities to receive airdrop rewards before new token listings, while DEX+ enables exploration of decentralized tokens across multiple blockchains.
