WHY DOT WITH GUARDA
Why buy Polkadot with Guarda
Quick answer: choose an amount, compare the provider's final quote, complete any required verification and receive DOT at a Polkadot address controlled by your wallet. Guarda does not custody the purchased asset; the fiat provider handles the payment.
- DOT supports network governance, staking and interoperability within the Polkadot ecosystem.
- Use the Polkadot network and confirm the destination account format. Keep enough DOT to cover any network-specific balance and fee requirements shown by the wallet.
- DOT is volatile. Staking may involve bonding periods, validator selection and slashing risk.
What to check before buying DOT
Network and address

Fees and final price
The market price above is a reference, not an offer. Compare the provider fee, exchange-rate spread, blockchain fee and any card-issuer charge shown at checkout.
Risk to understand
DOT is volatile. Staking may involve bonding periods, validator selection and slashing risk.
How Polkadot fits a self-custody wallet
DOT supports network governance, staking and interoperability within the Polkadot ecosystem. Self-custody means the wallet's recovery phrase controls access, so losing it can permanently remove access and exposing it can let another person move the funds.
Availability is not universal. Payment methods, identity checks, limits and supported networks depend on the integrated provider and the customer's jurisdiction. A successful card authorization also does not guarantee a fixed blockchain confirmation time.

Buying Polkadot — FAQ
Timing depends on the payment provider, identity checks, payment method and Polkadot confirmations. The provider shows the current estimate before payment.
Creating a self-custody Guarda wallet does not require a custodial account. The regulated fiat provider may still require identity verification based on your region, payment method and order size.
Available methods can include Visa or Mastercard cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and bank transfer. The exact list, minimum and limits are set by the provider and your region.
The final quote can include a provider fee, exchange-rate spread, blockchain network fee and a fee charged by your bank. Review the checkout total rather than relying only on the market reference shown here.
Verify the network and destination, use only official wallet downloads, and never share a recovery phrase or private key. No legitimate support agent needs those secrets.
