Step 3:

Read through and understand the terms of use, then select the option: “I will send tokens from my own wallet”, then click “Next”

Step 4:

Verify your order and click “Confirm”, an address will be generated for the deposition of OAX token in ERC-20 format.

Step 5:

Deposit your OAX in ERC20 format to the address generated, but do note that the address is valid for 2 hours, and do not re-use the same address
