Fund your smart-contract Argent Wallet directly from USD via Elbaite.
Direct-to-wallet P2P funding for Argent users.
Argent is a smart-contract wallet designed for Ethereum and Layer 2 networks. It offers social recovery, built-in DeFi integrations and a mobile-first experience. Funding Argent via Elbaite means crypto is delivered directly to your Argent contract addresses, keeping assets under your control from the first transaction.
Argent is popular with DeFi users who want features such as gasless interactions (on certain networks), integrated staking and security tools, without running a traditional seed phrase in the same way as EOAs.
Many Argent users buy ETH or tokens on a centralised exchange and then send them to their Argent wallet. This adds withdrawal fees and keeps funds on the exchange until transfers complete.
Elbaite lets you buy crypto directly for Argent using a P2P marketplace. You add your Argent receiving address to Elbaite, fund your account with USD and choose an offer. The seller sends crypto straight to your Argent wallet, and your USD is released from escrow only after on-chain confirmation.
Argent’s users often rely on fast, low-cost L2 networks. Elbaite’s direct-to-wallet onramp gets funds into those environments quickly, so they can be used for DeFi, swaps and staking without a custodial detour.
Install the Argent app, create a new wallet or import an existing one and configure security and recovery options. Enable the networks you intend to use, such as Ethereum mainnet or supported L2s.
Copy your Argent receiving address and add it to the Elbaite address book with a clear label for the network in use.
Complete KYC for your Elbaite account and deposit USD with a supported funding method.
Browse the marketplace, select the asset and network you want and pick an offer that matches your trade size.
Pay with your USD balance. Elbaite holds the payment in escrow while the seller sends crypto directly to your Argent address. Once confirmed on-chain, USD is released to the seller.
Use your funded Argent wallet to access DeFi protocols, staking opportunities and L2 dapps.
