XECHO is in private beta. Listening is free and real — the artists are real — but every payment uses test money, so you can try upgrades, tips and subscriptions without spending anything.
Test money cheat sheet
Card payments4242 4242 4242 4242 Any future expiry date, any 3-digit CVC, any ZIP or postcode. Real cards are declined.
Crypto paymentsNetwork: BNB Smart Chain Testnet (chain 97). You need a little test BNB (tBNB) for fees — we send it to you free, with test USDT and XDRIP to spend.
What it costs youNothing. No card is ever charged and test tokens have no value. Nothing you pay or earn in the beta turns into real money.
1. Get in
Tap the button in your invite email. It takes you to the listener app (listener.xecho.pro) with your code already filled in.
XECHO asks for the email your invite was sent to and your beta code (it looks like XECHO-XXXXXXXXXX). Use that same email for your account.
Create your account with Google or with email and a password. You must be 13 or older.
If you used email, we send you a 6-digit code. Type it in. It expires after an hour — tap Resend if it does. Check spam if it is not there within a minute.
Keep your code. On a new phone or computer XECHO may ask for it again — enter the same code and the same email.

2. Listen, and try the paid side
Everything plays on the free Silver plan, with occasional ads — except tracks an artist keeps for their subscribers. Want to see the paid experience? Upgrade from Billing and pay with the test card — you are never charged:

You can also tip an artist or subscribe to one from their page — card or crypto, all test money. Your listening is what decides how the royalty pool is shared, so the artists you play are the artists who earn.
3. Crypto, wallets and test tokens
XECHO runs on the BNB Smart Chain test network during the beta. You can do everything with a card instead — crypto is optional.
Get a wallet
New to crypto? Tap Connect wallet and choose Email or Google. That creates a wallet for you in seconds — no app, no seed phrase to write down yet. You can export it later.
Already have MetaMask, Trust Wallet or similar? Connect it. When you pay, XECHO asks your wallet to switch to BNB Smart Chain Testnet — approve the switch.
Prove it is yours (free)
The first time you use a wallet, it asks you to sign a message. Signing is free, sends no money and moves nothing — it just proves the wallet belongs to your XECHO account.
Get test funds
Every crypto payment needs a little tBNB to pay the network fee. The public faucets usually ask for real BNB first, so we send it to you: email support@xecho.pro (or reply to your invite) with your wallet address and we send tBNB plus test USDT and XDRIP to spend. Your wallet address is shown when you tap your connected wallet; it starts with 0x.
Never send real crypto to a XECHO address during the beta, and never share your wallet's secret recovery phrase or private key with anyone — XECHO will never ask for it.
If something goes wrong
“Your card was declined” — you used a real card. Use 4242 4242 4242 4242.
“Please switch your wallet to BSC Testnet” — approve the network switch in your wallet, or add BNB Smart Chain Testnet (chain 97) and select it.
A crypto payment will not start — your wallet needs tBNB for the fee. Email us your wallet address.
“This artist has not connected an on-chain wallet yet” — that artist can only take card tips for now. Use Card.
Asked for your beta code again — normal on a new device. Same code, same email.
