Buy Linden Dollar

Go to http://secondlife.com/

Login with your Second Life account.

Choose Buy L$ from the Linden Exchange menu.

Fees for Linden-Dollar purchases will be accounted with the payment method you have chosen in your 'Billing Information'.

Billing Information:

Go to 'Account' and look for the menu 'Billing Information'. There you can see your saved payment methods.

How you're paying:

To add a new payment method, click on 'Add a Credit card', 'Add a Paypal account' or 'Add a Skrill account'.

There you add your respective account information.

If you don't have a Paypal or Skrill account yet, you can register one for free.
Please look for their respective terms and fees directly on the providers websites.

Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/home
Skrill: https://www.skrill.com/en/home/

Skrill accepts instant payment from your bank account. Other than with Paypal, your money will be available in your Skrill wallet instantly. But Paysafe might not work in Germany and some other countries.

If you choose credit card as your payment option, it's also possible to get a prepaid card at your bank or from the internet. You can charge this card with a balance and use it for your payments in Second Life.

After you've added your preferred payment method (Credit card, Paypal or Skrill), you have to choose your country at the Billing Information page:
VAT - Value Added Tax. If you run a business with a registered tax-number, you may add your registry number 'Add VAT Exception' in order to be excluded from the VAT.
Linden Lab charges this tax for transactions, dependent on your country.

With your saved payment methods you can now purchase L$ here http://secondlife.com/ - at the Linden Exchange menu - Buy L$.

In order to purchase L$ directly in the SL-viewer, go to your viewer menu on the top right, next to your L$ balance where it says BUY L$.
