How to Buy Ripple on GateHub
As a top cryptocurrency by market cap, Ripple (XRP) is probably on your radar as a potential coin to buy. You have a few different platforms available on which you can purchase Ripple with Bitcoin. However, your options for buying Ripple with USD, EUR, or other fiat pairings are a little more limited.
A popular method to buy Ripple with fiat is to use the GateHub wallet. GateHub is built on the Ripple protocol, so it specializes in XRP exchanges.
In this guide, we’ll explain step-by-step how to buy Ripple on Gatehub, specifically using USD. Although we only cover purchasing Ripple with USD, the platform also supports EUR, CNY, and JPY trading.
To get started, create a GateHub account.
How to Create a GateHub AccountStep 1. Navigate to the GateHub website.
Step 2. Click Sign Up in the upper right-hand corner of the page.
Step 3. On the Sign Up page, enter your email and password. Additionally, complete the Captcha as well as read the GateHub Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions. If you agree with the policy and terms, check the boxes and click SIGN UP.
Step 4. Next, you’ll receive a Recovery Key. Store this in a safe place to which only you have access. Preferably, you should write it down and keep it someplace secure.
*If you lose your password, the only way to recover your account is with your Recovery Key.*
Step 5. Once you’ve safely stored your Recovery Key, check your email. You should have received an email from GateHub. Follow the instructions in the email to activate your account.
Step 6. GateHub will most likely redirect you to the Sign In page after activating your account. If you aren’t redirected, you can navigate to the Sign In page by click Sign In on the GateHub homepage.
