# Activating your account

You'll need to activate your account, this process is quite simple, enter on your exchange and deposit at least 5 WAXP <mark style="color:red;">with the required MEMO</mark> to the address **newsuser.wax**.

* You can also buy the WAXP through other ways, like credit card.
* Your wallet address will be newuser.wax until you finish up the account creation process, after it you'll receive a newly one!
