Quickstart

Buy your first TRON Energy in under 10 minutes — on the tronsave.io website with a wallet, or via the API, with the Nile testnet for safe testing.

There are two fast paths to your first Energy purchase. Pick one.

Path A — Buy on the website (no code)

1. Go to tronsave.io/market and click Connect to connect your TRON wallet (e.g., TronLink).

2. Choose Buy, then set:

   • Resource: Energy (default) or Bandwidth

   • Amount: e.g. 65000 Energy (≈ one USDT TRC‑20 transfer; ≈ 130000 if the recipient has never held USDT)

   • Duration: e.g., 1 hour or 3 days

   • Price tier: MEDIUM is a good default — see Order Types

3. Confirm and sign. Energy is delegated to your address within seconds once the order matches.

That's it. To learn the different ways to buy (Normal, Pending, Smart, ZapBuy, Auto Buy), see Buy Energy & Bandwidth.

Path B — Buy via the API (for developers)

In about 10 minutes, you'll get an API key, deposit TRX, estimate cost, and place an order. Full walkthrough:

➡️ Developer Quickstart

Minimal version:

# 1. Estimate cost
curl -X POST https://api.tronsave.io/v2/estimate-buy-resource \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"receiver":"YOUR_TRON_ADDRESS","resourceType":"ENERGY","resourceAmount":65000,"durationSec":900,"unitPrice":"MEDIUM"}'

# 2. Create the order
curl -X POST https://api.tronsave.io/v2/buy-resource \
  -H "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"receiver":"YOUR_TRON_ADDRESS","resourceType":"ENERGY","resourceAmount":65000,"durationSec":900,"unitPrice":"MEDIUM","options":{"allowPartialFill":true,"preventDuplicateIncompleteOrders":true}}'
