Any advice?

Yes buy it when you arrive. Easy to use machines.
What website are you trying to purchase the card from?

I was planning to buy an oyster card for myself for my granddaughter when we travelled to London last summer, but we found it easier to use my credit card for her and my phone for me to click in and out on the tube. It didn’t cost any more than it would have with an oyster card and it was much more convenient.

There is now a £7 non-refundable charge for an Oyster card. You may have a specific need for one (eg applying some kind of discount such as a child or railcard) but for a one off straightforward visit for adults contactless payment is the way to go these days.
