Place to buy BTC with credit card

[silkycoins]

Hi all,

I'm a newbie in the bit coin scene and really excited to get started in the mining business. I'm looking to join a group buy but in order to join you need bitcoins. Now I live in NZ which has basically no bitcoin presence and it's rather difficult to find bitcoins to buy and all services outside NZ I have looked at all require back deposits, which aren't viable for me.

So my question is: Is there a service which you can but bitcoins with either a credit card or PayPal?

Thanks

It will be a bit difficult because of chargebacks.   Try your local area and maybe transact physically

It is possible but not easy to buy coins using credit cards or PP. You are essentially asking for real money, and offering a virtual payment which is subject to chargeback at your whim. The seller usually accounts for this risk by increasing the price.

Try https://localbitcoins.com/country/NZ

You can always try btcquick

You could always try coinbase.com

You can also use this to sell bitcoins as well, or even use it as an online wallet.

virwox

As far I know VirWox accepts credit cards. Do not use paypal on VirWox, becouse they can lock your account becouse of "fraud" and your money will be lost.

The New York Department of Financial Services has issued subpoenas to a variety of New York-based Bitcoin enterprises, including Coinbase.

I have a coinbase account.  I didn't know it was possible to buy with Paypal or Credit Card there though?

[infobiactrader]

It's not. You need to link your bank account.  It is substantially easier than wire transfers etc. though.

[MrHempstock]

If you can't link a bank account, try Bitcoin-Brokers.org
I dealt with them just today and they were awesome.

I've used Coinbase, it takes a few days to confirm your bank account, but they do have a pretty good exchange rate and the fee isn't too expensive.
