What is Ethereum?
Ethereum (ETH) is one of the world's largest and most widely used blockchain networks, launched in 2015 by Vitalik Buterin and a team of co-founders. Unlike Bitcoin, which was primarily designed as digital money, Ethereum was built as a programmable blockchain where developers can create smart contracts and decentralized applications. The network uses a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism, with ETH serving as its native cryptocurrency for transactions and network fees. Ethereum supports a broad ecosystem of decentralized finance (DeFi), NFTs, stablecoins, and blockchain-based applications. Its established developer community and widespread adoption have made Ethereum a key part of the broader crypto ecosystem.
How to buy Ethereum with Credit Card or Debit Card
Buy Ethereum with credit card instantly - here’s how:

Paybis lets you buy Ethereum with a credit card or debit card in 180 countries, with your ETH delivered to the wallet you choose. Follow these steps:
- Create a free Paybis account, or log in
- Enter how much ETH you want to buy, or how much local currency you want to spend
- Paste your Ethereum wallet address, or select the free Paybis wallet
- Complete the payment with your card
Your ETH payout is initiated as soon as the payment clears, and the coins typically arrive within minutes after network confirmation.
Which wallet should I use to receive my Ethereum?

You can receive your ETH in any wallet you choose: paste your own wallet address at checkout, or select the free Paybis wallet.
Your own wallet gives you full control of your keys. If you use one, keep your private keys or seed phrase stored safely offline. The Paybis wallet is the simple option: free of charge, no setup, and your crypto is never locked in, so you can transfer it out at any time.
How long will my transaction take?

Your ETH payout is initiated automatically within seconds of your payment being confirmed. After that, the Ethereum network needs a few minutes to confirm the transfer, which is normal for every ETH transaction. If your coins have not arrived within ten minutes, contact our 24/7 live chat and we will track the transaction with you.

Almost anyone can buy Ethereum on Paybis. There are three requirements:

Can I buy Ethereum with Apple Pay?

Your card details are never shared with Paybis, and all payments are secured through Apple's or Google's encryption. It is one of the fastest and most secure ways to buy Ethereum on a phone or computer.
You can also buy Ethereum in the Paybis mobile app, available for iOS and Android, with the same checkout experience as the website.

Yes. Paybis is regulated in the US, Canada, and the EU, secures every transaction with TLS encryption, and has thousands of satisfied customers, as shown by our Trustpilot reviews.
Keep platform safety and investment risk separate. Paybis secures the purchase, but Ethereum remains a volatile asset. Before investing, we encourage you to conduct your own research and review the risk summary.

- New users: Buy Ethereum within about ten minutes, including the time needed to create an account and pass verification.
- Verified users: Complete an Ethereum purchase in well under a minute.
After payment, the ETH arrives once the Ethereum network confirms the transfer, typically within a few minutes.
How can I protect myself from scams when buying Ethereum?

Paybis is a regulated cryptocurrency exchange, not an investment company. It is registered with FinCEN in the US and holds MiCA CASP and Payment Institution licences in the EU. If you are wondering whether Paybis is a scam because someone contacted you claiming to represent us, remember that Paybis does not cold-call customers or promise investment returns.
To protect yourself from scams when buying ETH:
- Only use the official Paybis website or app to buy Ethereum
- Do not trust unsolicited calls or messages claiming to be from Paybis
- Never send ETH to a wallet provided by a stranger or someone promising guaranteed returns
- Never give anyone remote access to your device or share your passwords, PINs, or verification codes
- If you are unsure about a request, contact Paybis through the official 24/7 live chat or email support before making a payment
Crypto transactions are irreversible, so if someone pressures you to buy Ethereum and send it to them, stop the transaction and verify who you are dealing with first.
What fees will I have to pay?

To buy Ethereum with a card you pay the Paybis fee, the card processing fee, and the ETH network fee. You see the full cost and the exact amount of ETH you will receive before you confirm, and nothing is added afterwards.
Please find the complete breakdown in our comprehensive fees guide.
Why do you need me to upload my ID?

Can I buy Ethereum with credit card for someone else?

Unfortunately, you can only buy Ether with credit card to your own wallet. After you do so, you are free to spend it as you wish - including making private transfers to your loved ones.
Do you accept American Express?

You are currently allowed to buy Ethereum with debit card of the following brands: VISA and Mastercard. Stay tuned - the number of supported methods is constantly increasing!
I use Apple Pay, do I have to type in my card data?

No, there's no need to do that. Apple users can buy ETH with Apple Pay, using a card they've saved.
Make sure you're using Safari, as Apple Pay does not work on other browsers. Start the transaction just like any other payment card purchase: enter the amount you want to buy and your wallet address. In the next step, choose Apple Pay from the list of available payment cards. Authorize your transaction with Touch ID or Face ID, just like unlocking your phone — and you're done!
The payment is just as fast and safe, and you'll receive your crypto in your own wallet as soon as it clears.
Can I buy a small amount of Ethereum?

Yes. Ethereum is divisible, so you can buy a fraction of one ETH. Enter the amount you are comfortable with in your local currency at checkout, and you will see exactly how much ETH you will receive before paying.
You do not need to commit a large sum for a first purchase. Many customers start small to learn the process first.
Where can I buy ETH instantly?

You can buy ETH instantly on Paybis. Verified customers complete a purchase in under a minute, and the ETH payout is initiated within seconds of the payment clearing.
Paybis is available in 180 countries, supports credit cards, debit cards, and Apple Pay, and has a 24/7 support team. For the fastest experience on the go, use the Paybis app for Android or iOS.
What is the cheapest way to buy Ethereum?

The real cost of buying Ethereum is the platform fee, exchange rate, network fee, and any payment method charge. The cheapest way to buy is the method with the lowest total cost, not simply the lowest advertised fee. Many platforms promote low headline fees but use a less favorable exchange rate, which can increase the final cost.
On Paybis, you see the exact amount of ETH you will receive before you confirm, so you can compare the true cost upfront. Bank-based payments generally cost less than card payments, while cards offer faster processing. You can review the full fee structure in our fees guide.
The cheapest option is not always the best one; security, speed, and support also matter.
How do I buy Ethereum for the first time?

Buying Ethereum for the first time on Paybis takes about ten minutes. Create a free account, verify your identity, enter how much ETH you want, choose where to receive it (your own wallet or the free Paybis wallet), and pay by card.
You do not need any prior crypto experience, and there are no trading screens. If anything is unclear during your first purchase, the 24/7 live chat will walk you through it.
Can I buy Ethereum without verification?

Fully anonymous, no-verification purchases are not possible on Paybis or any other regulated platform, because of international Anti-Money Laundering (AML) standards. What Paybis makes fast is the verification itself:
- New users: Sign up with an email address and phone number. The identity check, when required, usually takes under two minutes.
- Verified users: Buy Ethereum in a couple of minutes with no extra paperwork.
- Low-risk users: Buy and send up to $1,000 per year with a card using simplified verification and no full KYC, the closest option to a no-verification purchase.
- Depending on your payment method, location, and purchase amount, you may be subject to fewer verification steps.
Can I buy Ethereum with a bank transfer?

Yes. Paybis supports bank transfers, including options such as SEPA, SWIFT, and ACH, depending on your location and currency. Bank transfers generally carry lower costs than card payments and are better suited to larger purchases, while cards are typically faster.
Select the available bank transfer option at checkout and follow the payment instructions provided. Once the payment clears, your ETH is sent to your chosen wallet.
Can I buy Ethereum with PayPal?

Yes. You can buy Ethereum with PayPal on Paybis. The process is straightforward:
- Enter how much ETH you want to buy
