Why buy Tether on OFFCODE
- Instant, free PIX deposits.
- 0.30% spot spread — among the lowest on the market.
- AWS KMS custody with hot wallets segregated by role.
- Multilingual support, and PIX verification processed within 24 business hours when you need it.
- On-chain withdrawals to wallets like MetaMask, TronLink, Ledger on the TRON (TRC-20), Ethereum (ERC-20) or Arbitrum network.
Step 1 — Sign-up
Go to offcode.pro/signup with a personal email (ideally one dedicated to crypto). Create a strong 16+ character password with a password manager. Enable 2FA TOTP under Settings > Security right away — without 2FA, a leaked password becomes an unauthorized withdrawal. Details at /security.
Step 2 — Verification (only for PIX)
Identity verification is not required to use OFFCODE: you can deposit crypto, trade and withdraw without it. It is only needed to deposit in BRL via PIX. If that is your route, submit your ID, a document (a valid ID card or driver's license) and a selfie. Approval within 24 business hours, often within hours. An expired document is the number-one reason for rejection — check the validity before photographing it.
Step 3 — Deposit
To deposit crypto, go to Deposit and pick the network — no verification needed. For BRL via PIX, once verification is approved, go to Deposit > BRL > PIX. OFFCODE generates a dynamic QR code linked to your account. Open your bank app, scan the QR, confirm. The balance arrives in seconds. PIX must come from an account belonging to the same person registered — third-party deposits are blocked by compliance.
Step 4 — Buy USDT
With a BRL balance, choose your path:
- Convert — the simplest path. Enter the amount, see the final quote, confirm. 0.30% spread, instant execution.
- Spot — price control via the order book. Market order (executes immediately) or limit order (you set the price). Same 0.30% fee.
To get started, Convert is the way to go. Once you're comfortable and trading larger amounts, consider Spot. To accumulate USDT for the long term, avoid perpetual futures — explained at /learn/funding-rate-perpetuos.
Step 5 — Store USDT
You've bought it. Now comes the custody decision:
- For actively moving capital: keeping it in OFFCODE custody makes sense. Withdrawals require 2FA + email OTP, with an address whitelist and a 24h cooldown.
- For long-term holding: consider transferring part to a hardware wallet (Ledger or Trezor). Recommended wallets for USDT: MetaMask, TronLink, Ledger.
On-chain withdrawal from OFFCODE: go to Withdraw, choose the TRON (TRC-20), Ethereum (ERC-20) or Arbitrum network, enter your wallet address, confirm with 2FA + OTP. The transaction is processed after a security check. Learn more about custody at /security.
DCA — buying USDT bit by bit
Instead of trying to nail the best price, the most common strategy among people entering the market is Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA): buying a fixed amount every month, regardless of the current price. Over a 1-3 year horizon, the average price converges toward the period's average — with no stress about timing the top or bottom. You set an amount that fits your budget (R$ 100, R$ 500, R$ 2,000) and a fixed day of the month. See the full framework at /blog/como-comprar-bitcoin-com-pix-60-segundos-2026.
