I don’t understand how any of this really works. What I don’t get is when you put money in your account what or how do you do with it.

I've found a good starter here: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/12/how-bitcoin-works/?amp=1
It explains what is Bitcoin, how Bitcoins are made and many more things; I've found it interesting.

But from what I understand you are badly mixed up. You seem to mix up Bitcoin with altcoins (IOTA) and with the services that help you buy or sell Bitcoin.
You should start step by step, try to understand what you are doing, then act. One simple question at a time could also help. And when you have simple questions you can also search, since most likely they were asked already.

Good luck, it's a long read, but it's the beginning of a long ride!
