# Guide

If you want to use [**zkLite Exchange**](https://zklite.io) on zkSync, you will first need to bridge your funds from Ethereum Layer 1 to zkSync Layer 2. After that, a [one-time activation fee ](https://docs.lite.zksync.io/userdocs/faq/#what-is-the-account-activation-fee)is required by zkSync's design to activate your account. You're then ready to start trading on [zkLite.io](https://zklite.io)

1. Go to <https://lite.zksync.io/>, switch your wallet network to Ethereum, connect your wallet, and sign the message to access your account
2. Go to [Top up -> Bridge](https://lite.zksync.io/transaction/deposit) and fill in the amount and the token you want to transfer from L1 to L2.
   * Alternatively, you can also top-up/deposit via Bybit, LayerSwap, ..v.v
3. Confirm the transaction in your wallet and wait until your funds are bridged to zkSync
4. Once your funds have arrived, sign zkSync's one-time activation fee and start trading at <https://trade.zklite.io/>

Check your account and transaction details:

* Balances:
  * zkSync Lite wallet: [https://lite.zksync.io/](https://lite.zksync.io/transaction/deposit)
  * Or go to <https://trade.zklite.io/> and click the 'Balances' tab next to 'Orders' and 'Fills'

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.zklite.io/zksync-lite/guide.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
