Obtaining PART
==============

.. meta::
:description lang=en: Find where you can obtain PART coins.

To use the :term:`Particl Marketplace`, you will need to obtain PART coins. They can be purchased using various different cryptocurrency exchanges and online services.

Cryptocurrency Exchanges
------------------------

The PART coin is a cryptocurrency and can be obtained from various cryptocurrency exchanges. In most cases, you will need to own Bitcoin as a pre-requisite and trade it for PART.

* `Bittrex (recommended) <https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-PART>`_
* `Probit (recommended) <https://www.probit.com/app/exchange/PART-BTC>`_
* `HitBTC <https://hitbtc.com/PART-to-BTC>`_
* `ChainEx <https://chainex.io/markets/PART/BTC>`_
* `STEX <https://app.stex.com/en/basic-trade/pair/BTC/PART>`_
* `Bitbns <https://bitbns.com/trade/#/part>`_


In-App Swap Engine
------------------

The PART coin can also be obtained directly from within the :term:`Particl Desktop` client using the in-app swap engine. This lets you get PART without having to register on any third-party exchange and without leaving the client. It is the most user-friendly method.

.. rst-class:: bignums

#. Open :term:`Particl Desktop`.
#. Open :guilabel:`Swap` module in the dapps menu at the very left and click on :guilabel:`Start New Exchange` afterwards in the main content area.
#. Set the number of PART coins you want to obtain and select the currency you want to swap-in for PART coins. Then click on the :guilabel:`Next` button.
#. Review the quote offered by the exchange. Click on the :guilabel:`Next` button to confirm.
#. Send your coins to the address provided and wait for the transaction to be completed. This can take several minutes depending on the exchange and the currency you trade for.

.. note::

**Prerequisite:** Enable the desired exchange bot.

#. Open :guilabel:`Swap` -> :guilabel:`BOT MANAGEMENT`.
#. Choose an exchange and enable its bot by expanding its tile and then clicking on the :guilabel:`Enable bot` button.

.. attention::

Particl's in-app swap engine is temporarily unavaible. We are working to get it back up as soon as possible!

Fiat Gateways
-------------

The PART coin can be purchased directly using "fiat gateways" as well. Contrary to most regular cryptocurrency exchanges, you won't need to own Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency as a pre-requisite. You'll be able to buy PART directly using national currencies such as the US Dollar or the Euro.
