# How to buy $TPAD

## Buying TPAD from PancakeSwap

\
Participation in all the sales on TrustPad requires TPAD or TPAD-BNB LP as staked in the IDO or IDO LP pools. 

The TrustPad site has a "Buy TPAD" button at the top which will send you to PancakeSwap to swap for TPAD. The UI of PCS sometimes does not feed through the contract code, so manual searching is often required.

If this is the case, click on ‘Select a currency’ and manually input the contract code to the search bar, then select ‘TPAD’ once it pops up.

The TPAD contract code is: **0x7029F86dC4634c5d59eE3F1578c193783505e2c1**\
\
⚠️ Never buy any other token named TPAD or TrustPad. They are invalid.\
\
[❗](https://emojipedia.org/exclamation-mark)Set the slippage (room for the price change) as modest, from 0.25% to 0.5% to avoid front-running i.e. sandwich bots benefitting from your trade.

## Alternatives

If the TPAD contract does not show in PancakeSwap's Exchange function, you can try to use the function in an incognito / private window.

You can find this link from the TrustPad front page, just click the Chart button there.
