2. Few things to keep in mind before proceeding with the exchange:

a) This is a “pure” exchange rate without any service fees or third party fees
b) Guaranteed rate means that exchange rate is ONLY valid for 15 minutes after order's creation time. If the payment wasn't received within 15 minutes interval, the rate will be recalculated. The exchange rate also will be recalculated for orders with unconfirmed transactions for more than 24 hours.
c) The system fee (% depends on the exchange direction). 
d) Your personal discount. Discount is provided only to registered users (How-to register). You can learn more about discount here.
e) Exchange type. Automatic means there is no human involved and exchange automatically will be processed as soon as we’ll get your confirmed payment. Automatic exchange directions are very fast from few seconds to 5-10 minutes.
f) Required number of confirmations on the blockchain.

3. Now you need to enter the required amount of destination currency (NEM) (2) or source amount (Bitcoin) (1) you’d like to exchange. If you change destination amount the source amount will be automatically re-calculated and vice versa.

4. a) Enter your e-mail address (1) (if you’d like to get an e-mail when your exchange order finishes or leave it blank, e-mail field is completely optional).
b) Enter your NEM wallet address (2). If you’re logged in you can save this wallet’s address for the future re-use.
c) Enter your Message. NEM Message is used to distinguish multiple payments sent to the same NEM wallet address. NEM Message is required ONLY if you are transferring NEM to an online wallet, exchange or any other third-party service with shared NEM wallet. You need to include correct Message in this case otherwise your payment will be lost and not credited to your account there.
d) If you use standalone wallet (e.g. NanoWallet) you can click ‘No Message ID’ button.
