How to buy Arbitrum (ARB) on Bybit using Google Pay?

Accessing Bybit Account and Navigating to Arbitrum Purchase Interface

1. Open the Bybit mobile application or visit the official Bybit website using a supported browser.

2. Log in to your verified Bybit account. Ensure two-factor authentication is enabled for security.
3. Tap or click on the Trade section, then select Buy Crypto from the top navigation bar.
4. Use the search bar to type “ARB” and select Arbitrum (ARB) from the list of available tokens.
5. Confirm the displayed trading pair is ARB/USDT or ARB/USD, depending on your regional availability and payment method support.

Selecting Google Pay as the Preferred Payment Method

1. After selecting ARB, choose the Instant Buy option instead of spot trading.

2. Enter the amount of ARB you wish to purchase or specify the equivalent fiat value in USD or your local currency.
3. Scroll down to the payment methods section and locate Google Pay. If it’s not visible, check whether your region supports Google Pay via Bybit’s fiat gateway partners.
4. Tap or click on Google Pay to initiate the wallet connection flow.
5. Authorize the transaction through your linked Google Pay account by confirming the payment request on your Android device.

Completing KYC and Compliance Requirements

1. Before completing any fiat-based purchase, Bybit requires identity verification aligned with local regulatory standards.

2. Upload a clear photo of your government-issued ID such as passport, national ID card, or driver’s license.
3. Take a real-time selfie holding the same ID document with your face fully visible and no obstructions.
4. Wait for automated or manual review — most verifications complete within minutes but may take up to 24 hours.
5. Ensure your registered email and phone number are confirmed, as both are mandatory for Google Pay binding and withdrawal safeguards.

Confirming Transaction Details and Finalizing Purchase

1. Review the displayed exchange rate, total fees, and net ARB amount before submission.

2. Note that Google Pay transactions may incur additional processing fees imposed by your bank or card issuer.
3. Tap Confirm Purchase and follow the on-screen prompts inside the Google Pay interface.
4. Once approved, the ARB tokens appear in your Bybit Spot Wallet almost instantly.
5. You can verify the receipt by checking the Wallet tab and filtering for ARB under the Spot balance section.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is Google Pay available for ARB purchases in all countries?A: No. Google Pay integration depends on local banking infrastructure and Bybit’s partnerships with fiat gateways. Supported regions include India, Singapore, Brazil, and parts of Europe — availability changes dynamically based on compliance updates.

Q: Can I use Google Pay to buy ARB without completing KYC?A: No. Bybit enforces mandatory KYC for all fiat-to-crypto transactions regardless of payment method. Unverified accounts cannot proceed beyond the payment selection screen.

Q: Why does my Google Pay transaction show as pending for more than 10 minutes?A: Delays may occur due to bank-side authorization latency, network congestion during peak usage, or mismatched billing details between your Bybit profile and Google Pay account. Check your bank statement for a pre-authorization hold.

Q: Are there daily or monthly limits when buying ARB via Google Pay?A: Yes. Limits vary by jurisdiction and verification level. Tier-1 users typically face $1,000–$5,000 per transaction caps, while Tier-2 verified users may access up to $50,000 daily depending on regional regulations and risk assessment algorithms.
