Step 1:
Go to shapeshift.io
Choose the coin you want to exchange to ETH.

Put your BTC address as the refund address in case you buy more than you needed. And then your ETH address as the destination address. It can be your wallet or the coinpayments receiving wallet if you're looking to purchase the award.
Step 2:
Just wait for the exchange to complete and you'll see a message like this:

After that you'll see the coins in your wallet in minutes 🤝
