# Buying

When you buy a Toros token, you deposit into a [vault](/resources/glossary.md#vault) and receive an ERC-20 token in your wallet. That token represents your share of the vault's strategy.

## How to Buy

1. Connect your wallet at [toros.finance](https://toros.finance) and switch to the token's network.
2. Open the token's page and select **Buy**.
3. Choose the asset to pay with and enter an amount.
4. Confirm the transaction in your wallet. You receive the vault token.

## Deposit Assets

Each vault accepts specific [deposit assets](/resources/glossary.md#deposit-asset). When buying, you can pay with a deposit asset or with another supported token on the network.

Buying with a deposit asset incurs zero slippage; you only pay the [trading fee](/trading/fees.md).

## Buying With Other Tokens

If you pay with a non-deposit asset, it is swapped into a deposit asset first and then deposited, all in a single transaction. That added swap is the only difference from a deposit-asset buy: it carries its own trading fee and [slippage](/leveraged-tokens/slippage.md).

Non-deposit buys source liquidity from across the chain using [DEX aggregators](/resources/glossary.md#dex-aggregator) such as 1inch, so larger trades can still execute at competitive prices.

### Slippage Settings

When slippage is set to auto, the trade is simulated at the lowest possible slippage, then increased gradually until it can go through. Once it can execute, the transaction is sent to your wallet for approval.

You can also choose which DEX aggregators are enabled in trade settings. By default all are enabled, and the best one for the trade is used.
