You can buy ADA using a bank card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, bank transfer, and other payment options (depending on your country of residence) by clicking on the Buy/Sell button in the wallet widget (or if you’re using wallet.nu.fi, click ‘Buy/Sell Crypto’ in the top-right of the Portfolio > Assets screen). Buying and selling ADA is done through a 3rd-party service called Moonpay.
Important: if it’s your first time buying or selling ADA, you’ll need to complete KYC (which stands for ‘Know Your Customer’). This is an automated process that takes just several minutes and involves uploading a document (like a driver’s license or passport) to confirm your identity. You can learn more about which documents are accepted here.
KYC is used to prevent fraudulent or illegal activities, and once you’ve completed this process, you won’t need to do it again.

Click Continue; enter your email address, receive a one-time verification code by email and enter this, and then follow Moonpay’s instructions to enter payment details and complete the purchase
The ADA you purchase will be deposited into your wallet after several minutes; you may need to click the Reload icon at the top of the wallet widget (or at the top of NuFi wallet’s interface) before this ADA becomes visible.
