In your local currency Through Bybit P2P

Method 1: Deposit crypto

1. Open Deposit

In the app: Assets (bottom of the screen) → Deposit. On the website: Assets at the top of the page → Deposit.

2. Choose the coin and the network

Choose the coin (USDT, for example), then the Chain type (network). Bybit warns that depositing a coin that isn't listed, or sending on a network that isn't listed, can lead to permanent loss.

3. Choose the destination account

Under Route Deposits To, you can choose Funding, Unified Trading or Earn. If you're new, leave it on Funding, because that's where P2P works from.

4. Copy the address and the tag

Copy the address, and if a Tag/Memo appears, copy that too. According to Bybit, a wrong tag is the main reason deposits don't arrive on time.

5. Send from the other side

Use the same network, and send a small amount first the first time. Guide to networks.

Method 2: Top up in your local currency with P2P

Buy USDT from a seller on Bybit P2P and pay them by bank transfer or e-wallet.
