## What you need

An email address, and digital dollars (USDC) to pay with. If you have none, add them by card from **Settings → Wallet → Add funds**, or send USDC on Solana from any exchange or wallet app that sells it. There is nothing to install.

## How your payment is handled

* Sellers never see your payment details.
* If a product has a refund window, your payment is protected during it. Read more in [Refunds and protection](/buy-on-lid/refunds-and-protection.md).
* Everything you buy lives in one place in your account, with a receipt for each purchase. See [Your purchases](/buy-on-lid/your-purchases.md).

## Common questions

<details>

<summary>Do I need an app?</summary>

Lid runs in your browser. Open the link, sign in with your email, and you are set.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What are digital dollars?</summary>

Money that works like dollars and moves over the internet in seconds. On Lid they are USDC: one USDC is one US dollar. The price you see is the price you pay.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Can I pay with my card?</summary>

Yes. Add funds with a card, Apple Pay or a bank transfer through MoonPay, where MoonPay operates, and pay in digital dollars (USDC).

</details>

<details>

<summary>Do I need to verify my identity to pay by card?</summary>

Yes, with MoonPay, the first time. MoonPay asks for your name, a photo of an ID document and a selfie or a quick face check before your first purchase. That check is MoonPay's, and it follows MoonPay's rules in your country. Paying with USDC you already have needs no check.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Does paying by card cost more?</summary>

MoonPay charges its own fee for a card payment: up to 4.5%, with a minimum fee on small amounts, plus a network fee. You see every fee before you confirm. The details are on [MoonPay's pricing page](https://www.moonpay.com/legal/pricing_disclosure).

</details>

<details>

<summary>Is my purchase tied to one device?</summary>

Your purchases live in your account. Sign in with the same email from any device and everything is there.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.lid.pro/buy-on-lid/for-buyers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
