Download the Tangem app
From the App Store or Google Play. Free, no signup.
Buy WASTED quickly on your phone without an exchange or signup. Tangem is a free, non-custodial wallet for iOS and Android. Buy WASTED with Apple Pay, Google Pay, Venmo, PayPal, or cards
The fastest way to buy WASTED is directly inside the Tangem – no account, no waiting.
When you buy WASTED on an exchange, the exchange holds your funds. If the exchange is hacked, freezes withdrawals, or goes bankrupt, your WASTED is at risk. Tangem ensures that doesn't happen to you.
Keys are generated and stored in the Secure Enclave (iOS) or StrongBox (Android).
The Tangem app has been reviewed by third-party researchers such as Cure53.

No. Tangem is fully self-custodial. Your WASTED is stored on the secure chip inside your Tangem card, and only you hold the private keys. Tangem never has access to your funds.
Most purchases complete within a few minutes. Once the payment is approved by the provider, your WASTED is delivered straight to your Tangem Wallet.
Your WASTED is stored on your Tangem card, not on your phone. Simply install the Tangem app on your new device and tap your card to regain full access to your wallet.
Your Tangem Wallet already is cold storage. The private keys for your WASTED are generated and kept on the card's secure element and never leave it.
KYC requirements depend on the payment provider and the amount you're purchasing. For small purchases of WASTED, many providers allow you to buy without verification.
The app already gives you a secure, non-custodial wallet most people never need to go beyond. If you hold a significant amount, pair a Tangem card and your keys move to an EAL6+ certified element managed from the same app.
