How to pay with Cardano, step by step

  1. 1

    Add your seats

    Choose your match and seats on SeatSparks, then open checkout — your total is shown all-in in US dollars.

  2. 2

    Select Cardano

    Pick ADA at checkout. We convert your dollar total into an exact ADA amount and lock that quote for a short window so the price can't drift while you pay.

  3. 3

    Scan or copy the address

    Scan the QR code with your wallet, or copy the one-time Cardano deposit address generated for your order.

  4. 4

    Send the exact amount

    Send precisely the ADA amount shown. The Cardano network fee is added by your wallet and goes to the network, not to SeatSparks.

  5. 5

    Wait for confirmation

    Cardano confirms within a minute or two — there's no need to keep the checkout page open.

  6. 6

    Get your e-ticket

    The moment the payment confirms, your mobile e-ticket with a scannable entry QR is issued to your account and emailed to you.
