GNU Taler Help - Empty Wallet

## Your wallet is empty!

You have succeeded with installing the Taler wallet. However, before you can buy articles using the Taler wallet, you must withdraw electronic coins. This is typically done by visiting your bank's online banking Web site. There, you instruct your bank to transfer the funds to a Taler exchange operator. In return, your wallet will be allowed to withdraw electronic coins.

At this stage, we are not aware of any regular exchange operators issuing coins in well-known currencies. However, to see how Taler would work, you can visit our "fake" bank at bank.demo.taler.net to withdraw coins in the "KUDOS" currency that we created just for demonstrating the system.
