# Get Started

First, you’ll need to **set up a TON wallet**. A crypto wallet is a digital tool that allows users to store, send, and receive cryptocurrencies. It stores the private keys needed to access and manage the cryptocurrencies stored on the blockchain. There are many wallets on TON, such as [Tonhub](https://tonhub.com/), [MyTonWallet](https://mytonwallet.io/), and [Tonkeeper](https://tonkeeper.com/).

❗The **seed phrase** is crucial for wallet access — never share it with other users. Losing the seed phrase means losing all wallet funds.

Next, you’ll need to **get some TON** for gas fees. You can use an on-ramp service to buy a token directly with your credit card. This is a simple way to get started without needing crypto exchanges. Learn more about ways to purchase TON on [the official TON website](https://ton.org/en/buy-toncoin).

The second way to get TON is **by purchasing** it on centralized exchanges like [OKX](https://www.okx.com/), [KuCoin](https://www.kucoin.com/), [Bybit](https://www.bybit.com/en), [Gate.io](https://www.gate.io/ru), or others. Once you’re ready, you can withdraw TON to your wallet. To do it, click “Withdraw” on CEX, select token $TON, and paste your wallet address.&#x20;

2. Select the tokens and the amount you wish to swap.

🔥 That’s all! You have completed a swap on Rainbow Swap!
