I personally not yet to try this feature but when you checked on bitrefill price, the rate is same as at exchanges. for example, i want to top up 10000 IDR if it convert to bitcoin the amount is 0.004(at this time).

Confused about DOP means ???

Does this work with all countries or just the US?
This is really great. If it works with Telegram with GetGems, I'd basically just stay at home and
continue loading myself up!!!
