How to acquire Tether Tokens

Acquiring Tether tokens is sending fiat currencies and receiving Tether tokens. You can complete wire deposits (USD, CHN or MXN) and receive the corresponding amount of Tether tokens (USDt, CNHt or MXNt) to an address of your choice. The minimum acquisition amount is 100,000 USD or equivalent. 

You can check all network protocols on which we issued Tether tokens at https://tether.to/en/supported-protocols/. Please bear in mind that acquiring Tether tokens on Kusama, Bitcoin Cash SLP, Omni Layer, EOS and Algorand is not possible.

Important: To acquire Tether tokens, you must have a verified Tether.to account. If you still need to verify your account or want more information about verification, please refer to the article Verify an Account on Tether.to 

The verification process is a standardised compliance measure designed to adhere to laws and regulations related to Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Know Your Customer (KYC), and Counter-Terrorist Financing (CTF).

Note: Before proceeding, we recommend reviewing the Fees page to familiarise yourself with the minimum acquisition amount and any associated fees.
