A Step-by-Step Guide – Cryptocurrency News & Trading Tips – Crypto Blog by Changelly

Changelly has recently partnered with Revolut to make crypto purchases even easier and more affordable. Our users can now buy over 30 cryptocurrencies, including BTC, ETH, and stablecoins, with over 20 fiat currencies. Payment options include Revolut Pay and debit/credit cards.

Here’s a comprehensive and easy-to-follow guide to help you purchase cryptocurrency on Changelly using Revolut.

Step 1. Initiate the Transaction

Go to the Buy tab on the Changelly website or app. Enter the amount of fiat currency you want to spend, and select the cryptocurrency you wish to purchase. 

Click the Buy button to proceed.

Choose your preferred payment method. Then, select Revolut from the list of available payment offers.

Step 2. Enter Your Crypto Wallet Address

Now, you must enter your cryptocurrency wallet address. Please double-check that it is correct and supports the cryptocurrency you are purchasing. This includes not only ensuring the correct ticker (BTC, ETH, etc.) but also confirming network compatibility (e.g., Ethereum, Tron, Avalanche).

Before confirming, double-check your order summary. Pay attention to the fiat amount, crypto amount, and transaction fees. Check the box to agree to Changelly’s Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, then press the Buy button.

It’s important to double-check these details, as blockchain transactions are irreversible. A couple of extra minutes to ensure the accuracy of your transaction details can save you from the hassle of trying to recover funds lost due to a mistake.

Step 3. Authorise with Revolut

You will now be redirected to Revolut to authorise the payment. Log in to your Revolut account in the newly opened window. You can do this by scanning the QR code with your Revolut app or entering your email/mobile number.

If you do not have a Revolut account, you can create one at this stage. However, this guide does not cover the account creation process.

Enter your Revolut account password to proceed. 

Revolut requires two-factor authentication (2FA) for added security. You can complete this step via the Revolut app or by entering a 6-digit code sent to your phone via SMS.

Step 4. Pay for Your Order

After you successfully log in, Revolut will display the order summary again. Carefully check all the details to ensure they match what you confirmed on Changelly.

Afterward, click ‘Pay with’ to select your payment option within Revolut. Once everything is set, click the Pay button to complete the payment process.

Step 5. Transaction Complete

Congratulations, your transaction is complete! Once your payment is processed, all you need to do is wait for your cryptocurrency to arrive in your wallet. This usually takes about 10 minutes, but the exact time may vary depending on the blockchain network’s congestion.

If you experience any issues or delays, please contact the Revolut support team by submitting a ticket via their helpdesk.
