How to buy USD1, step by step

Choose an exchange that lists USD1
USD1 trades on 36 of the exchanges we track. Among the best-rated of them (trust score 10/10), Binance handles the most USD1: $180.98M changed hands there in the last 24 hours; Gate and MEXC are the next options.
Check that the exchange is licensed or allowed to operate where you live — the same exchange can offer different coins in different countries.
Create an account and verify your identity
Centralized exchanges ask for an email, a password and, before you can deposit money, identity verification (KYC) with a photo ID. Turn on two-factor authentication with an authenticator app, not SMS, as soon as the account is open.
Deposit money and buy USDT
None of the USD1 markets we track are paired with a national currency, so it's a two-step purchase. USDT is a dollar-pegged stablecoin and the pair currency for 91% of USD1 trading: buy USDT with a bank transfer or card first.
Buy USD1
Open the USD1/USDT market and enter how much you want to spend. A market order fills immediately at the best available price; a limit order waits until the price reaches the level you set. Spreads on the main USD1 markets are tight (around 0.01%), so a market order won't cost much beyond the trading fee.
Decide where to keep it
You can leave USD1 on the exchange, which is simplest, or withdraw it to a wallet you control. Before withdrawing, check that your wallet supports USD1 on the same network the exchange sends on — funds sent over the wrong network can be lost.

Before you buy

USD1 is a stablecoin designed to track a fixed value; people typically buy it to hold dollars on-chain or to move money between exchanges, not to profit from price moves. Its peg depends on the issuer's reserves.
Buying crypto can be taxable where you live. Keep a record of what you paid and when.
