Getting Started

Zipmex is a non-custodial trading platform on Solana. One interface covers perpetual futures, token swaps, and prediction markets.

Non-custodial means your funds stay in your own wallet. There is no account to register, no email, no password. You connect a Solana wallet you already control, and every trade is a transaction you sign yourself. Zipmex never holds your keys and cannot move your funds.

What you need

  • A Solana wallet — Phantom, Solflare, Backpack, or any Wallet Standard–compatible wallet. On mobile you can also sign in with Privy (email or social login creates an embedded wallet for you).
  • SOL for network fees — Solana transactions cost fractions of a cent, but you need a small SOL balance to pay them.
  • Funds to trade with — USDC is the most versatile; SOL and USDT also work as perps collateral (see below).

Connecting

Click Connect Wallet in the top right, pick your wallet, and approve the connection. That's it — there is no KYC step and no deposit required to browse every market live.

Moving funds from another chain

If your capital is on Ethereum or another network, use Bridge (in the More menu) to bring it to Solana. Once it arrives, everything on Zipmex is available to it.

Each has its own guide in this documentation.


Trading involves substantial risk. Leverage amplifies both gains and losses, and you can lose your entire margin. Nothing in this documentation is financial advice. Availability of products may depend on your jurisdiction.
