Buy Dogecoin in 5 steps

The king of memecoins, Dogecoin (DOGE) is the original novelty cryptocurrency, the favourite of Elon Musk and also one of the biggest cryptocurrencies in the world.

From a value of less than US$0.0001 in 2015, it's possible 1 Dogecoin could soon be worth more than US$1.

If you're looking to buy DOGE in Australia, the easiest option is buying it through a recognised crypto exchange that lets you trade using Australian dollars.

You can follow the steps below to get started:

  1. Find a crypto exchange. The easiest way to buy Dogecoin is from a cryptocurrency exchange. When looking at exchanges, it's worth comparing any trading and payment fees, as well as those that let you buy Dogecoin directly with AUD.
  2. Create an account. Once you've picked an exchange, you'll need to create and verify your account using a form of photo ID.
  3. Make a deposit. Once your account is verified, you can deposit AUD using one of the exchange's supported payment methods. This could be by bank transfer, card or PayPal. Alternatively you could use an instant purchase method.
  4. Buy Dogecoin. You're now ready to purchase DOGE. On beginner-friendly exchanges, this is as simple as entering the AUD or DOGE amount you want to purchase and clicking "buy".

What is the best way to buy Dogecoin?

The best place to buy Dogecoin in Australia is arguably via a crypto exchange that lets you deposit AUD for free and offers Dogecoin (DOGE) spot markets, like Kraken or CoinSpot.

A spot market is like a marketplace where you can buy and sell cryptocurrencies directly with other users. This means you can actually set the price you want to buy Dogecoin at (known as a "limit order"), instead of simply getting the current price.

Spot markets also offer much lower trading fees than instant purchase options, which can charge more than 10 times as much as the spot market. For example, CoinSpot charges a 0.10% trading fee when buying Dogecoin with AUD on the spot market, but charges a 1% (plus spread) if using the instant purchase method.
