For this tutorial, we will prepare three versions of how you can top-up your Trust Wallet to choose what best represents your needs. Moreover, at this time, the USD bank transfer feature is disabled, as it is in maintenance. As a result, we were able to present this method as well.

So, the first approach is adding Euro to your Binance account via the bank card, and then we will discuss how to go through with a 3rd party provider, such as Zen, MoonPay, Transak, Ramp, or Simplex.

For those who don’t know, Binance is one of the most used centralized exchanges whereby users can buy and sell crypto, transfer crypto, withdraw money, earn interest, and many more. This exchange also offers around 500 cryptocurrencies, including the option to buy BNB tokens, Bitcoins, Ethereum, Litecoin, and many other coins.

For this example, we’ll use EUR to deposit money, especially since, right at this moment, the USD payment channel is in maintenance.

So, as you can see, we’ve selected “EUR,” and here we can either go with the bank card or choose the 2nd option via a Fiat Partner of Bifinity UAB, in this case, Zen.

* Please note that if your currency is not listed, Binance does not support that currency. In such cases, you can buy cryptocurrencies on the Binance P2P marketplace using your preferred payment option, with bank transfer being the most commonly used channel.
