For the purpose of this guide, we’ll use SafeMoon Wallet.

The wallet creation process requires you to save a secret recovery phrase and set up a password.

The second step is to use a cryptocurrency exchange to buy BNB.

Enter the amount of BNB that you want to buy (minimum $100) and tap on “Buy”.

Conclusion

The process of buying SafeMoon V2 (SFM) on Trust Wallet or MetaMask is similar to buying it on SafeMoon Wallet.

Instead, you’ll have to use PancakeSwap on your browser to swap BNB for SafeMoon V2.

This is because the DApp browser is removed for iOS devices.
