To know your options, the following factors are relevant:

- Where are you located (country)? [Edit: Site title, shows UK]
- How much are you looking to buy?
- What payment methods do you have available or prefer (e.g., cash, bank transfer, etc.)
- How soon do you need your bitcoins?
- Is privacy important?

BlockChain.info now accepts funds using a bank transfer (Faster Payments) or from Barclays Pingit:
