How to set up a recurring buy?

A recurring buy is a plan that automatically buys crypto from your TRY balance at the frequency you set. Once you set it up, purchases take place on their own on the days you selected, so you can spread your cost over time instead of depending on a single price level.

How do I set up a recurring buy?

To set up a recurring buy on the website, open Discover in the top menu and click Recurring buy. In the window that opens you choose the asset, the amount to spend on each purchase and the purchase frequency, then confirm the plan from the summary. After the plan is set up, it is recommended that you set up a transfer instruction with your bank.

Before you start

• Your account verification must be complete
• Recurring buys are funded from your TRY balance only; your TRY balance must be ready

Steps

1. Open Paribu.com and open Discover in the top menu
2. Click Recurring buy
3. Choose the asset you want to buy; you can type the asset name in the search field
4. Enter the amount to be spent on each purchase and click Review plan
5. Choose the frequency in the Select purchase frequency section and click Confirm selection
6. If you chose weekly, answer Which day should it be purchased?; if you chose monthly, choose the day of the month
7. Check the First purchase, Recurring buy frequency, Next purchase, Payment source and Your TRY balance details in the Recurring buy summary section
8. Click Start recurring buy

When your plan is set up, the message Your recurring buy plan is ready appears and the first purchase starts.

Note: The first time you open recurring buy, an introduction screen appears. You can click Start to move on to the setup

You can also set it up from the Easy Buy-Sell window

In the Easy Buy-Sell window, which opens from Crypto buy/sell → Quick buy/sell in the top navigation, you can choose an asset and an amount and then click Recurring buy to move into the same flow. The Review plan button takes you to the summary section.

Does Paribu withdraw money from my bank automatically?

No. This is the point that is most often misunderstood about recurring buy. As the interface also states, Paribu does not withdraw money automatically from your bank; you need to set up the recurring transfer with your bank yourself. A recurring buy is made from the TRY balance in your account.

Warning: Transfers from credit cards, joint accounts or third-party accounts are returned. You need to send the transfer from an account registered in your own name

What are the purchase frequency options?

There are four options, and only three of them create a plan. Buy now is not a plan; it works as a one-off purchase and does not repeat.

Option	What it does
Buy now	Purchased now, does not repeat — does not create a plan
Daily	Buys every day
Weekly	Buys every week on the day you choose
Monthly	Buys every month on the day you choose

Note: You cannot choose the purchase time. The plan repeats at the time it was set up; the frequency is shown together with the time in the plan details

How do I set up the bank transfer instruction?

After the plan is set up, clicking Set up transfer instruction opens the Recurring transfer instruction section, which lists the details you need for the instruction: Select bank, Amount, Frequency, the suggested transfer day and the recipient.

Paribu does not set up the instruction on your behalf; it shows you the details you need, and you set the instruction up at your own bank.

Warning: It matters that you set the date of the instruction to the business day before your purchase date. Transfers that fall on a weekend or a public holiday are processed on the next business day, so your balance may not be ready on the purchase day

Amounts sent with FAST reach your account within minutes; EFT transfers are only completed during bank working hours.

What happens if my balance is not enough on the purchase day?

That purchase is skipped but your plan continues and is tried again in the next period. Skipped periods appear on the plan row with a Skipped label and a counter.

Warning: If your balance is not enough on three consecutive attempts, your plan is canceled automatically. When you top up your balance the counter resets and the plan continues as normal

Where can I see my plans?

You can see your plans in the Recurring buy tab of the transaction history. The list has Open transactions and Completed tabs, with the columns Asset, Start date, Frequency and Next purchase date.

When you click a plan, the Recurring buy details window shows Status, Amount and Start date along with an Accumulation summary: Total invested, Total received, Average cost and Profit / Loss.

What do the plan statuses mean?

Status	Meaning
Active	The plan is running and purchases are made according to the frequency
Skipped	One or more periods were skipped because the balance was not enough; the counter shows which attempt you are on
Paused	The plan has been stopped temporarily by the platform
Cancelled	The plan has ended and no new purchases are made

The cancellation reason appears in the plan details: Cancelled by you, Cancelled after three failed purchases or Cancelled because the asset was delisted.

Note: There is no option to pause or restart a plan. If your plan shows as Paused, you did not do that; to find out why, you can reach us through the support chat

How do I cancel a recurring buy?

1. Go to the Recurring buy tab of the transaction history
2. Click the plan you want to cancel
3. Click Cancel recurring buy in the Recurring buy details window
4. Click Yes, cancel in the confirmation window that opens

When you cancel, the assets you bought with the plan remain in your account; only new purchases stop.

Tip: After canceling the plan, remember to remove the recurring transfer instruction at your bank as well. Otherwise transfers keep reaching your TRY balance while no purchase is made

Things to know

• Recurring buys are funded from your TRY balance only. If you select a USDT pair, the frequency selector is hidden and the purchase is fixed to Buy now, so no plan is created
• The minimum recurring buy amount is set by the system; if you enter an amount below the limit, the required minimum is shown on screen
• The purchase time cannot be chosen; the plan repeats at the time it was set up
• The first purchase starts the moment the plan is set up, but it may take a short while to reach your account
• The amount and frequency of an existing plan cannot be edited; to change them you need to cancel the plan and set up a new one
• Recurring selling is not supported
• A recurring buy is not investment advice; spreading your cost over time does not remove the risk of loss

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a recurring buy and "Buy now"?

Buy now is a one-off purchase and does not repeat; it does not create a plan. The daily, weekly and monthly options create a plan, and purchases continue on their own at the frequency you chose.

Does Paribu set up the bank instruction?

No. Paribu shows you the details you need for the instruction; you set the instruction up at your own bank. That is why you also need to remove your bank instruction when you cancel the plan.

Can I pause the plan temporarily?

There is no pause option; you can only cancel the plan. If you do not want to buy for a while, you can cancel the plan and set up a new one later.

Can I change the amount or frequency later?

The amount and frequency of an existing plan cannot be edited. To continue with a different amount or frequency, you need to cancel the plan and set up a new one.

Can I set up a recurring sale?

No, recurring selling is not supported at the moment. Recurring buy works in the buy direction only.

A recurring buy is a plan that automatically buys crypto from your TRY balance at the frequency you set. Once you set it up, purchases take place on their own on the days you selected, so you can spread your cost over time instead of depending on a single price level.

How do you set up a recurring buy?

To set up a recurring buy, you need to choose the asset, the amount and the purchase frequency. The setup starts from the More option on the Wallet tab; the asset and amount selection comes first, then the frequency and day selection, and in the last step you confirm your plan on the summary screen.

1. Tap the More option on the Wallet tab
2. Tap Recurring buy on the screen that opens
3. Select the asset you want to buy — you can type the asset name into the search field or select it from the Popular assets list
4. Enter the amount to be spent on each purchase
5. Set the frequency on the Select purchase frequency screen and tap Confirm selection
6. If you selected weekly or monthly, choose the purchase day on the Which day should the purchase be made? screen
7. Check the asset, amount, frequency and Next purchase details on the Recurring buy summary screen
8. Tap Start recurring buy

When your plan is set up, the Your recurring buy plan is ready screen appears. The first purchase is started the moment the plan is set up; it may take a short while for the transaction to be reflected in your account.

Note: An introduction screen appears the first time you open recurring buy. You can tap Start to move on to the setup; this screen is shown only on your first visit.

What are the purchase frequency options?

There are four options and only three of them create a plan. The Buy now option is not a plan; it is processed as a single, normal purchase and does not repeat.

Option	What it does
Buy now	Purchased immediately, does not repeat — creates no plan
Daily	Makes a purchase every day
Weekly	Makes a purchase on the day you selected every week
Monthly	Makes a purchase on the day you selected every month

Note: You cannot select the purchase time. The plan repeats at the time it was set up; the frequency is shown in the plan detail together with its time, such as "Every Thursday at 14:30".

Can a recurring buy be set up from the Buy/Sell screen?

Yes, but only under certain conditions. The purchase frequency selector at the top of the Buy/Sell screen appears only in the easy buy/sell view, in TRY pairs and in Buy mode. When you move the frequency to an option other than Buy now, the button at the bottom changes to Review plan and takes you to the summary screen.

Note: Recurring selling is not supported. When you switch to Sell mode, the frequency selector is hidden.

Which balance is the payment made from?

A recurring buy is made only from your TRY balance and only TRY pairs are supported. Your TRY balance needs to be ready on the purchase day; for this reason it is recommended that you set up a recurring transfer order at your bank after setting up the plan.

Warning: If your TRY balance is insufficient, that period's purchase is skipped and your plan continues. If your balance is insufficient for 3 consecutive attempts, your plan is canceled.

Skipped periods appear in the plan row with the Skipped label and a counter showing which attempt you are on. When you top up your balance, the counter is reset and the plan continues as usual.

How do you set up a bank transfer order?

Paribu does not set up your bank order on your behalf; it shows you the details you need and directs you to your own bank app. After the plan is set up, when you tap Set up automatic transfer, the Recurring transfer order screen opens and lists the details you need to use in the order.

A suggested transfer day is also shown on the screen. This day is calculated as the business day before your purchase day, so the money reaches your account before the purchase takes place. If you set up a daily plan, the suggestion is given as every business day.

Note: When setting up the order at your bank, it is important to set the date to the business day before your purchase day. Because transfers falling on a weekend or a public holiday are processed on the next business day, your balance may not be ready on your purchase day.

Where can I see my plans?

You can reach your active plans in four places. The most complete list is on the Pending tab in the Transactions section; from there you can see the status of each plan and its next purchase date.

• Transactions > Pending: The list of all your plans
• Market detail screen: If you have a plan in that asset, it opens from the Active orders section
• Wallet: A recurring icon appears next to the name of the asset that has a plan
• Recurring buy screen: The screen where the setup entry is located

The plan row includes the Next purchase date, Start date, Amount and Frequency fields. When you tap a plan, the Recurring buy details screen that opens also includes a Savings summary: the Total invested, Total received, Average cost and, where available, Profit / Loss values.

What do the plan statuses mean?

Your plan can be in one of four statuses. Of these, the Paused status has a special meaning — you cannot create this status yourself.

Status	Meaning
Active	The plan is running and purchases are being made according to the frequency
Skipped	One or more periods were skipped because of an insufficient balance; the counter shows which attempt you are on
Paused	The plan has been temporarily stopped by the platform
Canceled	The plan has ended and no new purchases are made

Note: There is no option in the app to pause or restart a plan. If one of your plans appears as Paused, you did not do it; to find out the reason for the status you can reach us through the support chat.

How do you cancel a recurring buy?

To cancel the plan you need to go to the plan detail. The cancellation cannot be undone; if you want to buy the same asset again, you need to set up a new plan.

1. Tap the Pending tab in the Transactions section
2. Tap the plan you want to cancel
3. Tap Cancel recurring buy on the Recurring buy details screen
4. Tap Yes, cancel on the confirmation screen that opens

When you cancel, the assets you bought earlier with this plan stay in your account; only new purchases stop. When the action is complete, a notification appears on the screen.

Tip: After cancelling the plan, remember to remove the recurring transfer order at your bank as well. Otherwise transfers to your TRY balance continue but no purchase is made.

Important information

• The minimum purchase amount and the number of plans you can set up for one asset are determined by the system; if you enter an amount below the limit during setup, the minimum amount required is shown on the screen
• A recurring buy works only in TRY pairs and with your TRY balance
• The purchase time cannot be selected; the plan repeats at the time it was set up
• The first purchase is started the moment the plan is set up, but it may take a short while to be reflected in your account

• A recurring buy is not investment advice; spreading your cost over time does not remove the risk of loss
