# Buy

### Buying Tokens

VWAPE allows users to buy tokens in two simple ways:

#### Option 1: Search or Audit a Token

1. Use the `/search` or `/audit` command in Telegram.
2. Enter the token name or address as prompted.
3. Click on one of the **Buy** buttons to proceed with the purchase.

This method is ideal if you want to research or audit the token before buying.

#### Option 2: Snipe Mode

1. Use the `/buy` command.
2. Enter the **notional amount** (total amount to use for the purchase).
   * This can be a USD amount or a percentage %. 
3. Provide the **token address** you want to buy.

This method is faster and best for quick entries, such as sniping new listings.

Always double-check the token address before executing a snipe to avoid buying the wrong asset.
