# Funding Your Wallet

## Getting Started

Now that you've set up your wallet, it's time to **fund it with crypto tokens**. To perform transactions on a blockchain—such as staking on ZenStake—you need **the native gas token** for that network. For example:

* **Ethereum** → ETH
* **BSC** → BNB
* **Polygon** → MATIC
* **Arbitrum** → ETH
* **Optimism** → ETH

### Fiat with Transak

ZenStake integrates [**Transak**](https://global.transak.com/) as the primary fiat on-ramp provider, allowing you to **buy crypto directly** into your wallet using a **bank transfer or credit card**.

#### How to Buy Crypto with Transak:

1. **Click on the “Buy Crypto” button** in the ZenStake interface.
2. **Select your preferred cryptocurrency** (ETH, USDT, MATIC, etc.).
3. **Choose the network** where you want to receive the funds.
4. **Enter the amount** you wish to purchase.
5. **Complete the transaction** using your selected payment method.

With **Transak**, you can fund your wallet quickly, securely, and seamlessly without needing to go through a centralized exchange.

### Alternative: Transfer from an Exchange

If you already have crypto on a **centralized exchange** like Binance or Coinbase, you can simply **withdraw it to your ZenStake-compatible wallet**.

#### Steps to Transfer from an Exchange:

1. **Log into your exchange account** (Binance, Coinbase, etc.).
2. **Go to the withdrawal section** and select the cryptocurrency.
3. **Enter your wallet address** (ensure it's on the correct network!).
4. **Choose the network** (Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, etc.).
5. **Confirm the withdrawal** and wait for the transaction to process.
