# Buying

> Single buys, sweeps, and what the price you see includes.

## Buying one thing

Open a token and buy it. The price shown is what you'll actually pay — list
price plus fees plus royalties, all in. There's no total that goes up at the
last step.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="An EXC listing on Solana">
    One transaction. You pay, escrow releases the NFT.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="An EXC listing on EVM">
    A normal Seaport fill — approve if you need to, then buy.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="A Magic Eden or Tensor listing">
    Goes through that marketplace. Our 2% comes as a separate transfer signed
    alongside it.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="An OpenSea listing">
    Filled through Seaport, with our fee collected separately afterwards.
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

<Note>
  Buying a Magic Eden listing, your wallet may show a second transaction next to
  the purchase. That's our fee being previewed — not a second charge on top of what
  you were quoted.
</Note>

## Sweeping several at once

The cart takes items from EXC, Magic Eden and Tensor together.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Fill it">
    Add what you want. Mixing sources is fine.
  </Step>

  <Step title="We build the purchases">
    Per marketplace, in parallel.
  </Step>

  <Step title="You sign">
    Where the batched path is on, everything is signed in one prompt.
  </Step>

  <Step title="They settle">
    Each item independently, so one that's already sold fails on its own instead
    of taking the whole sweep down.
  </Step>
</Steps>

You can sweep up to 10 Magic Eden items or 12 Tensor items at a time.

<Warning>
  Don't leave the signing prompt sitting open on a big sweep.

  Magic Eden's purchases carry a short expiry that can't be extended — around 40
  seconds — so a long pause at the prompt can push the later items past it. Sign
  promptly, or sweep in smaller batches.
</Warning>

### How the 2% is charged

Per item, as a separate transfer, right before that item's purchase. Sweep five
things and you'll see five fee transfers, each 2% of that item's price.

It works that way because we can't modify the purchase transactions those
marketplaces hand us — Magic Eden co-signs theirs, and Tensor's can't take extra
instructions. Adding anything to either invalidates it.

## Paying by card

Card, Apple Pay and Google Pay work through the onramp: you buy USDC, it's
swapped to the right coin, and the normal purchase runs. Works on every chain
and every collection.

Direct one-step card checkout only works on OpenSea and Magic Eden listings —
EXC's own listings settle through escrow, which a card provider has no way to
fill.

## Buying on a chain you have no funds on

You don't need to bridge first. EVM purchases handle the funding for you.

## When something's off

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="The listing vanished as I clicked">
    Expected occasionally. Outside listings are cached and refreshed on a
    rotation, so something can sell on its home marketplace between our refresh
    and your click. We re-check before charging you, so a dead listing can't take
    your money.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I signed and nothing happened">
    The transaction didn't land. Nothing is charged unless the purchase lands, so
    you haven't lost anything. Try again — if it keeps happening the listing is
    probably stale.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The price changed between the grid and the modal">
    The grid shows cached prices and the modal checks live. For outside listings
    the live one is right.
