Before you start#
- A wallet or exchange account holding the coin you will use. For small amounts, a low-fee coin (Litecoin, Tron, Solana, or a stablecoin on a low-fee network) keeps fees at cents.
- The USD amount you want on the balance: at ProxShift the minimum is $20, and larger top-ups carry a bonus (+10% from $100, +25% from $250, +40% from $500, +50% from $1,000).
- Five to thirty minutes, depending on the coin's confirmation time.
Step by step#
- In the wallet section of your account, choose the amount in USD and the coin. The checkout shows an address, the exact coin amount and, for networks that need one, a memo or tag.
- Check the network: a USDT address on Tron cannot receive USDT sent on Ethereum. The checkout names the network; your wallet must send on the same one.
- Send exactly the amount shown. If your exchange deducts a withdrawal fee from the amount, add it on top so the full amount arrives.
- Wait for confirmations. The balance is credited when the transaction reaches the depth the checkout indicates; seconds on Solana or Tron, minutes on Litecoin or Ethereum, longer on Bitcoin when the network is busy.
- Spend it: buy gigabytes or rent addresses from the balance. Every top-up appears in the ledger with its transaction hash.
Amounts, rates and mistakes#
| Situation | What happens |
|---|---|
| Sent slightly less | Credited at the value received |
| Sent more | Credited in full |
| Rate moved while confirming | The USD value is fixed at the rate when the transaction is detected |
| Wrong network | Usually unrecoverable; always match the network shown at checkout |
| Forgot the memo | Contact support with the hash; recovery depends on the network |
Choosing a coin#
| Priority | Coin | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Lowest fee, fastest | Tron, Solana, Litecoin | Cents or less, seconds to minutes |
| Fixed dollar value | USDT, USDC | No rate movement between sending and crediting |
| Privacy | Monero | Amounts and parties shielded on-chain |
| Already held | Bitcoin, Ethereum | Universal; mind the fee at busy times |
Privacy and records#
At ProxShift an email address opens the account and the coin funds it; no identity documents, no phone number. What is stored is what billing and abuse handling require, for the periods the privacy policy lists. Your own wallet's history is yours to manage: a fresh receiving address per purchase on your side, and Monero if the chain itself must not show the payment.
Refunds#
Unused balance can be refunded to the wallet it came from, minus network fees; consumed traffic and delivered terms cannot. Bonus credit is spent like balance and never paid out. Details in the refund policy.
Questions people ask#
Can I pay from an exchange account directly?
Yes. Withdraw from the exchange to the address shown, on the network shown, and add the exchange's withdrawal fee on top of the amount so the full sum arrives.
Which coins does ProxShift accept?
BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, LTC, XMR, SOL, TRX, DOGE and other major coins listed at checkout. Prices are in USD; the coin amount is fixed for the payment window.
