Abstracting users from the complexities of Web3 is one of the main visions of the Bluefin team, and for this purposes we have integrated an on-ramping feature powered by Transak (soon to have other providers), where users can purchase SUI through different payment methods (bank transfer, credit/debit card, Google/Apple Pay, etc.). In order to access this feature you will need to open your wallet side-bar and click on the "Buy" tab.
Once inside the On-Ramp modal you will be able to select both the currency and payment method of your choosing. Manual Bank Transfers will have lower fees compared to paying through credit card or Google/Apple Pay, although the latter alternatives allow to purchase smaller amounts of tokens (the minimum deposit with SEPA transfers is 19 EUR). Once you're ready click on "Buy now" to proceed with the purchase.
The following steps of this tutorial are for purchasing using a credit card.
In the following window you will be prompted to enter an email address and verify it with an Auth code that will be sent to the provided address. Then you will have to complete a KYC process to verify some personal information.
The KYC is divided into 3 steps:
Step 1: Enter your personal details (name and surname/s, phone number and birth date).
Step 2: Enter your residential information, your billing address will be auto-populated with the information provided in this step.
Step 3: Confirm the purpose of using Transak (a selection with 3 check-boxes will appear, click at least one of them).
After completing the KYC you will be prompted to enter your Billing Address, it is very important that you fill this information with the same address that is on file with your card provider (otherwise the purchase may fail).
In the next window you will have to enter your card details (name, number, expiration date and ccv) and subsequently confirm the purchase (you will see a window show up verifying that the payment was processed successfully), and that's it you're all set!
NOTE: You should see your tokens in your Spot account up to a few minutes after the purchase is confirmed. If the purchase fails, try double checking / updating your billing information, using another card or a different payment method. You can also open a support ticket on Discord and the Bluefin Team will respond within 24 hours.
