Everything you need to know about buying crypto with cards

Speed is essential when navigating the world of crypto. When you see an opportunity, you need a method that moves as fast as you do. Rain allows you to use your card to buy crypto directly without the need to pre-fund your account or wait for a bank deposit to clear. You simply pay for the asset at the moment of purchase and it is yours immediately.

Flexible payments wherever you are

We have tailored our payment options to align with local regulations in your region. If you are based in Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, or Qatar, you can use both debit and credit cards for these direct purchases. For our customers in the UAE, we specifically support debit cards.

So, how can you add your card to get started?

Setting up your card is a one-time process:

  • Go to your Profile and tap on Payment Methods.

  • Tap on Add Payment Method.

  • Tap on the + Add Card button.

  • Enter your details exactly as they appear on your physical card.

  • Tap on Add Card.

Once done, the card will be saved securely in your account for future trades.

Steps to complete your instant trade

Once your card is linked, you can purchase crypto immediately:

  • On your app’s home screen, tap Buy at the top of the screen.

  • Select your card from the drop down menu in the “choose account” section.

  • Enter the amount you would like to buy and click Next.

  • Review the transaction details and click Next.

  • Enter the OTP you received via SMS or from your 2FA app and confirm your payment.

Since you are paying directly with your card, the transaction is processed instantly. The crypto amount will appear in your Rain account the moment you confirm the trade, ensuring you never miss a market movement.
