Definition

An onramp is a service that converts fiat currency to crypto. Polymarket's in-app MoonPay is an onramp; so is Coinbase for buying USDC.

Plain-English explanation

Polymarket supports MoonPay and Onramper as in-app onramps (3–5% fee). Alternative: buy USDC on Coinbase, Kraken, or Binance and withdraw to Polygon (usually free or very cheap).
