Top Up

Topping up your Capture wallet is an important step in order to be able to use the various services offered by Capture and Numbers Protocol.

Initial Credits

Every newly created Capture Account is granted 12 NUM credits, you may find them on the Wallet page of the Capture Cam. This provides new users with the opportunity to register up to 120 assets at no cost.

Top up NUM directly to Capture Wallet

One of the ways to do this is by purchasing Numbers Mainnet NUM tokens and sending them to your asset wallet. This can be done by using a cryptocurrency exchange such as Gate, Lbank or XY Finance. More details and links to the exchange can be found at https://num.numbersprotocol.io/.

Once you have obtained your Mainnet NUM tokens, use the Capture Cam or follow the instructions here to use API to find the address of your Asset Wallet and transfer your NUM to it.

Purchase Capture Credits

Another way to top up your Capture Wallet is by buying Capture Credits in Capture Cam or Capture Dashboard. This option is convenient for those who may not have access to or are not comfortable buying cryptocurrency.

You can purchase credits by navigating to the "Wallet" section in the Capture Cam, pressing the "Buy Credits" button, and selecting the credit package you would like to purchase. You can then complete the transaction using your preferred method of payment, such as a credit card. The credits will be added to your Capture Wallet and can be used to access various services offered by Numbers Protocol, such as Network Actions, the Numbers API, and Nit Plugins.

Please note, Capture Credits can ONLY be used to purchase services such as Network Actions, Numbers API, Nit Bubble Plugin, etc. It cannot be used to purchase Capture NFTs.

Difference between Credits and NUM

Buying credits is a convenient way to purchase software services, as they act as a form of currency within the system. However, it is important to note that some app stores, such as the App Store, charge a 30% fee on credit purchases, which can make the overall cost higher.

On the other hand, buying NUM is a more complicated process that requires knowledge of cryptocurrency. It allows for more flexibility in terms of pricing, and it may be possible to purchase it at a lower cost compared to buying credits. However, keep in mind that the value of NUM may fluctuate based on the market.
