Find the right token
Cove accepts contract addresses, chain-suffixed addresses, token/pool links from services such as DexScreener, Defined, GMGN, Birdeye, Photon, and GeckoTerminal, and certain X search links. A short symbol or name can resolve to a matching token; always check the address. If an address exists on several chains, Cove can show a picker. Choose the network you intended. A failed link lookup can often be resolved by pasting the token’s contract address directly. Arc is supported. Paste the Arc token’s contract address, select Arc if asked, and check the chain label on the panel. See Supported chains for the full trading-network list.Read the fields

Native tokens
To open the buying flow for a native token, type and send its ticker in the Cove chat with a dollar sign:$SOL, $ETH, or $BNB.
- Send the ticker, including the $ prefix.
- If Cove offers a choice between a wrapped-token panel and a native-token purchase, choose Buy native for the native token. For example, after
$ETH, tap Buy native ETH rather than Open WETH panel on Base. - Select the network when prompted.
- In the buying panel, choose the amount and review any quote or confirmation before proceeding.

Send the ticker with a dollar-sign prefix, choose Buy native ETH, then select the network.
