How to pay with BNB, step by step

  1. 1Choose BNB at top-upPick an amount from $20 to $500 and select BNB. We show the exact BNB amount and a 0x address.
  2. 2Set your wallet to BNB Smart ChainAlso called BSC or BEP-20. Not opBNB, which is a separate network.
  3. 3Send the exact amountSend within 15 minutes, while the quote holds. Keep a little BNB for the fee.
  4. 4Buy from your balanceBNB Smart Chain adds blocks in under half a second, so this is quick.

What our address looks like. Our address starts with 0x. It is the same address we use on Ethereum and Polygon, so pick BNB Smart Chain in your wallet.

How fast is a BNB payment?

Time between blocks: 0.45 seconds. A block is a batch of payments the network writes down, and your payment needs to be in one before it counts. Here is how that compares with every other network we accept:

Time between blocks, network by network

Shorter bar = the network confirms payments sooner. Log scale.

Average block times from each network's own documentation, checked 2026-09-28. A payment needs at least one block to confirm.

Mistakes to avoid with BNB

Sending on Ethereum by accident

Our 0x address works on both, so a wallet set to Ethereum will happily send there. Check the network before you confirm.

How private is paying with BNB?

BNB Smart Chain is fully public, like Ethereum. Paying from your own wallet keeps your card and bank out of it, but the payment itself is visible. For a private payment, Monero is the option.

Whatever you pay with, the SimVala side stays the same: an account number instead of an email or name, and no ID to buy. For a private payment too, see paying with Monero.
