The first one of all available options to acquire Niodes is obviously buying them.
As Mecha Galaxy is a FREE playable game, it would seems awful have to purchase Niodes with your real money, but let's face it, Mecha Galaxy is a business and as every business, requires a support to continue existing or keeping interest from the Developers (while it has been said repeated times that this game will have no sunset as long as a single player continued playing it).
Mecha Galaxy is also a game we like (or you would probably not be here), so some support on the degree you want to afford (and as long as you wanted to do it), will do good for the maintenance of the whole service.
While expending your real cash, you will probably want to obtain the maximum possible profit.
Here we come then to offer to you the available options and those more desirable.
1. Where can I buy Niodes?
You can purchase Niodes through the option "NIODES", in the right side of the header menu.
2. Buying through Mechagalaxy.com has benefits
If you are playing from Facebook or Kongregate, we suggest you to join the option "Buy Niodes at Mecha Galaxy.com" as there you will get usually an extra bonus not available from the other platforms.

3. Buying Niodes during a Niode Sale is an even better deal
Sometimes (frequently before Clan Wars or other events or at their start) there are released Niode sales, allowing a higher income of Niodes when buying them. If you plan to buy a significative amount of them, it is advised to wait for one of those sales.
* In a Niode Sale, the rates here showed will get increased by the rated sale percent *
Traditionally the best Niode Sales are made on the Anniversay (August) and during the Xmas eve.
4. Options to make purchases
4.1. Individual
You can buy Niodes for your account. Purchases get an increasing amount of additional bonus Niodes on
mechagalaxy.com, starting with the $25 package.
4.2. Individual + Clan
You can make a purchase that provides you with 500 Niodes and you share the rest of the Niodes for that purchase with every member of your clan (you included) at the time of the purchase.

5. Additional Paypal Bonuses (free and cumulative with single or clan purchasses) include:
6. Raffles
Once a month, sometimes twice, there is a raffle within a Niode Sale in which you don't only will get more Niodes, but also enter into the chance to win a gruesome amount of Niodes if you were the lucky one in the draft, where each $ 1.00 purchased will give you 1 ticket for the raffle.
All other purchasers not winning any of the top prizes will get anyway 50 extra niodes with independence of the amount of $ purchased, well $ 1.00 or $ 1000.00, turning a $1 purchase profitable for around 61 Niodes (9 Niodes > 11 usually as per the % sale bonus + 50 from the raffle)
