=Purchase DMM Points=
  −
Since mid-2022, DMM services do not accept most foreign credit/debit cards, especially Mastercard ones.
  −
*It is therefore recommended to use either use:
  −
**DMM credit card, for Japan only, which gives a 4% free point bonus on purchase,
  −
**Compatible credit cards, such as some Visa ones, which give a 1% free point bonus on purchase,
  −
**PayPal, which can bypass most credit cards limitations,
  −
**DMM point cards, which are items that give a code to be activated on the DMM website, being available in Japan and on some websites.
  −
  −
As DMM credit cards and DMM point cards are mostly limited to Japan only, this guide only covers the PayPal and Credit Card options.
  −
*The DMM Roulette game is also shown, as it can reward some free DMM points.

=Payment Methods=
  −
To select a payment method, the player needs to use the DMM points site: [https://point.dmm.com/choice/pay?basket_service_type=freegame&banner_flg=1&device_view_type=pc&back_url=https%3A%2F%2Fpoint.dmm.com%2Fwindow%2Fclose].

  −
===PayPal===

In most cases, paying via Credit Card is the most secure option, as it avoids most extra steps required by other services. DDM also rewards 1% extra points per purchase to encourage this method.
  −
  −
To use it:
  −
*A "valid" credit card must be used.
  −
*On the DMM site is warned that '''"since the 24th of May 2022, VISA and Mastercard credit cards issued overseas are no longer be accepted".
  −
**Despite this warning, it is still possible to use some foreign cards, mostly VISA.

On the DMM site, it is then possible to select "Credit Cards" when buying points. After registering the card payment details, the payment process is managed via DMM own site.
