Title: BTC purchase with prepaid card ? Post by: NDioWealthAmp on September 25, 2017, 08:14:11 PM Hello,
Are there exchanges/exchangers accepting prepaid cards ? Basically cards which do not have a cardholder name neither are tied to a billing address and that do not offer the 3D Secure or Verified by Visa features. It seems hard to find !

Another solution is Paymium, it won't ask any document below a $1000 limit. I think with Bitwala, as you can buy Bitcoin theren, you can use a card only (they have a partnership with another company) may be good to try also. Which ones have you tried till now? It's quite hard to deal with cryptos and cards.

I have tried Coinbase / CEX.io / CoinMama / BitPanda / SpectroCoin / Safello and failed No problem to send verification documents Title: Re: BTC purchase with prepaid card ? Post by: NDioWealthAmp on September 25, 2017, 10:31:32 PM Purse equals a 15%-30% fee. It would be my last resort
Bitit requires 3D secure Paymium only accepts cards registered in France which is not my case (Malta) Pursuing my quest ??? Title: Re: BTC purchase with prepaid card ?

Purchasing Bitcoin with a card is usually charged higher, (~10%). So between a 10% fee to buy with your card and a 15% fee from Purse.io, there is only a 5% difference. Sometimes there are items listed for less than 15% also. There are still LocalBitcoin where I have seen some sellers accepting cards (usually with an app) but still a higher fees. Title: Re: BTC purchase with prepaid card ? Post by: NDioWealthAmp on September 26, 2017, 12:18:41 PM Correct in general but there are exceptions. At BitPanda, you'll get more of about 5% fee than 10% despite the use of a card, alas only EUR denomination
But the real issue lies elsewhere, on the characteristics of the prepaid cards which are rejected most everywhere An app @ LBC ? There, I am indeed concerned about the escrow quality. Cards are a very picky kind of item where it's easy to claim codes are invalid, or the card credit is empty, etc. + lots of scammers so like walking on a field of land mines ? Thanks for the brainstorming anyway Title: Re: BTC purchase with prepaid card ?

Post by: NDioWealthAmp on September 26, 2017, 01:25:20 PM Thanks for the warning. Their fees became way too high lately anyway
@ Bitwala, can't manage to go through their buying process. At some point, it is buggy (next button not working) Title: Re: BTC purchase with prepaid card ?
