Basic Attention Token (BAT) can be purchased on a cryptocurrency exchange. These are specialised marketplaces that allow you to buy and sell cryptocurrencies, and work similar to stock trading platforms. Here's how to get started.
Cryptocurrency exchanges offer similar services, but differ in a few key ways – mainly fees, the range of cryptocurrencies available and payment methods. You can use our table to compare the features of popular cryptocurrency exchanges available in the UK to help you choose the one that's right for you.
Some other factors you may want to consider are customer support, user reviews, ease of use and whether or not the exchange is registered locally. This information can be found by clicking on the exchange name in the table which will take you to its review page.
To create an account on any cryptocurrency exchange you will need an email address. Some exchanges may also ask for a phone number and photo ID, so it's a good idea to have those ready.
An increasing amount of cryptocurrency exchanges will need to verify your identity before you can deposit funds and start trading Basic Attention Token.
Once your account has been created, you will need to deposit funds to buy BAT with. You can either deposit local currency from a bank account or credit card, or transfer cryptocurrency from another exchange or wallet.
You are now ready to purchase BAT. The easiest way to do this is by using the 'instant buy' feature to purchase it for a set price (if the exchange offers this feature).
Alternatively, you can open a trade in the spot market which allows you to set your own price – this is the most common way to purchase cryptocurrency. Using the instant buy feature is straightforward but typically more expensive than using the spot market.
Before making your purchase, you may want to check the market conditions. To help you decide if now is the right time to buy, you can check the Analysis tab of this page to get an idea of how the price of Basic Attention Token has been performing recently.

How do i sell these tokens?
Hi Leo,
Thanks for leaving a question on finder.
Here’s how you can sell or trade BAT:
1. Visit the exchange platform that you have BAT on. If you have BAT in a digital wallet, you can choose a platform to use to complete this transaction.
2. Using the platform, transfer your BAT to ETH or BTC.
3. Continue to follow the instructions on the platform to sell or trade your ETH or BTC.
Please note that you cannot directly sell or buy BAT, you will need to convert it first to BTC or ETH.
Cheers,
Joel
