Hi @ZafarYaqoob  
I don’t think that’s possible right now.  
You have to buy BTC/ETH and buy ADA on one of these exchanges:

> **[Cardano is a decentralized public blockchain and cryptocurrency project and...](https://cardano.org/)**
>
> Cardano is a decentralized public blockchain and cryptocurrency project and is fully open source.

> [@Buying ADA with credit card](https://forum.cardano.org/t/buying-ada-with-credit-card/3255):
>
> Hey there, I’m curious to know why I can’t buy Cardano ADA using my credit card? additionally, why is it held for ransom by other cryptos such as BTC ot ETH … can’t you guys just offer us ADA the easy way without going the extra mile for it. I don’t want to convert my BTC or ETH for ADA … this isn’t fair … because I have to pay EVERYTIME a “fee” in order to get ADA. Thanks

Actually, you can use credit card to buy ADA directly. The service is available at [Coinmama.com](http://Coinmama.com). There is a post already: [Now you can buy ADA from Coinmama Exchange](https://forum.cardano.org/t/now-you-can-buy-ada-from-coinmama-exchange/10908).

Be aware that Coinmama price is always higher than what is listed in [Coinmarketcap.com](http://Coinmarketcap.com) since the Exchange applies a fee. Eg. For the time being, coinmarket price is $0.39 while it is $0.41 on Coinmama. This is not included an extra fee of 5% for the order amount. When you make an order, the final amount will be shown before finalising.

The choice is yours.
