Feature Issue

User Story

As a user I want to purchase ETH, SNT and potential other tokens to purchase stickers, register an ENS name, vote and use with dapps
As a network we want SNT and ETH to be available to those interested in purchasing, to enable use of SNT utility features

Description

We've pursued strategies for users to buy ETH and SNT:

Distribute Starter Pack and referral bonus > Reliant on gas cost
Teller > Not released due to regulatory compliance

This issue is intended to define ways to introduce:

In-app purchase of Starter pack

Options to purchase crypto used by other mobile applications are captured in this spreadsheet

To serve different platforms, multiple solutions might be provided

Acceptance Criteria

Regulatory compliance - a analysis is provided of the solution with regards to App and Play Store policies and exclusion of countries
Limited risk of getting banned or suspended from App or Play store
Available to users who do not use or have access to Google services (e.g. download through status.im or F-droid)
Limited friction. No KYC or reasonable assumption that KYC information is already available to provider (e.g Apple Pay)

Solution is captured in product requirements doc or similar, providing functional and implementation specs
