Bitcoin Forum

im brand new to bitcoin, I've been reading for a few months now and Im ready to get started. I have read mixed reviews about places that allow you to buy BTC with your CC but I cant find one im for sure about. Can anyone point me in the direction of a site that is reputable for this?

You can buy Bitcoins with your credit card from Bit-x, You can find the link in my signature, they have awesome service and they also give you a debit card using which you can withdraw fiat from number of atms around the globe, this really gives you more convenience to access fiat when you need it. Just have others people send btc to your Bit-x account, buy something online or cashout your bitcoin from atms or shop and pay with debit card, truly an awesome service. The entire signup process takes just 2 minutes. Cheers!

I seem to remember using Circle[.com] to buy BTC with my debit/credit card a short while back. Simple account setup. Immediate transfer. (I think. I could be misremembering.)

I've never heard of Bit-X before. I signed up through you link and will give them a shot. Thanks for the info.

You can find a list here:

Just be careful with your card. I know Bittylicious, BIT-X and CEX.IO, and I think these are safe places.

One of my first BTC purchases ever was throught credit card (linked to paypal) using Virwox.com. The fees are ridiculous tho. I would assume that nowadays there are better alternatives.

I would recommend you buy from localbitcoin as in over a year i have never had a problem with them buy bitcoins with my card, it is a concern giving people my ID but they are trusted enough as i said nothing has happened to my accounts or name in all that time, just find the most trusted seller and away you go. Welcome to the forum~and Bitcoin!

I still use circle pretty frequently. Never had issues there. Local bitcoins is always preferable but I live in a pretty rural area.

it depends on where you are from,but circle or coinbase usually permits you to buy bitcoin with credit card,try these sites

Generally the cost of buying bitcoin against CC is higher than the market rate. Hence it is better to buy from traders directly through bank transfer. Depending on your location, you may use LocalBitcoins.com (http://www.LocalBitcoins.com) or 100bit.co.in (http://www.100bit.co.in) to buy bitcoins directly from traders.

I think Coinbase only allows Visa credit cards, not others like Mastercard or Amex.

I could be wrong. Often am. ;D

Last I looked it was visa only or bank transfers, so you're not alone there. :)  On the bright side they are VERY reliable!

Any place to buy BTC with skrill or cc without uploading docs? ;) Because I really don't want to. There are so many scams and hacks around here that I prefer to stay safe.

Legitimate services will need verification documents to comply with regulations in order to stay in operation. These include AML and KYC laws. As long as you stick to the known (and trusted) services, scams and hacks won't be an issue.

You've never heard of Bit-x before? Even though you are promoting them in your signature campaign? Or did you mean to say that you weren't aware that they were offering deposit/withdrawal options via credit cards for their exchange?

You can also do this through Payza. You can fund your account with a cc, and then withdraw it in btc. But you have to verify your account at Payza, which takes a week.

I know you specifically asked about credit cards. But I find funding an account with a money order to be a cheap and less risky option. Not that Bit-X and other places are unsafe, its just that giving CC info can lead to access to more of your money in theory. A money order does not.  

Hey man,

Been working on a pretty decent list, we have 23 listed that accept credit cards at the moment - http://enjoybitcoins.com/?s=&s=&tx_listing=0&payment_options--4%5B%5D=Credit+Card&advanced_search=yes

BTC-e, Cex.io and BIT-X.


AFAIK this list hasn't been updated for a while now. Please check more about the site before you use it.

coinmama allows CC

LMFAO. Is this real? You promote a site you don't even hear. This is trolling at its best.

no it dosent, u must send money to WU or MG by cc and than give coinmama the transfer code.

U updated it pretty wrong, indacoin dont accept any cc , double check before "updating"  ;)

Realize, it's extremely tough to keep up with daily changing offerings of over 300 businesses, but we follow to the best of our abilities, sometimes we miss an update  ;). I do appreciate the feedback, thanks.  As far as I can see Indacoin still utilizes CC transactions for withdraw in some areas.

Yes, but here topic title is , "where to buy" , not to withdtaw , with CC :)

Is there any real place to buy with sms in EU? I checked there once was on blockchain.info, but it looks like no longer an option...
