The official web client for the Ripple Network is available at [https://rippletrade.com/]().

In the future, official downloadable clients will also be available.
The official web client for the Ripple Network is available at [https://rippletrade.com/](). There is also an official downloadable client at [http://download.ripple.com/]().
In order to activate your account, you must fund it with enough XRP to meet the account reserve (currently 20 XRP). You can do this in a few different ways:
* You can buy XRP with Bitcoins in the Ripple Trade client, under the [Fund](https://www.rippletrade.com/#/fund) tab.
* You can have someone who is already on the network send a payment to your account's address.
* Keep an eye out for promotions that give away free XRP to developers.
