Dear user,

thanks for the feedback, especially on the Subreddit Bitcoin.

We got some more news:

The simple fee is 2 € minimum or 2 % per transaction amount.

Thanks for understanding we charge that premium to cover business & IT expenses, development and security.

In exchange, we deliver your bill payment within one, max two business days.

Check out our pricing update on the blog.

Don't hesitate to ask, we cover an dedicated support via email and phone.

Kind regards,

That is good thing happened . I visited your site its amazing although there is no information about countries for which this service can be used. I think when you talk about Europe you referred at EU as whole,am I right ? I will give it a try for payment of my next utility bills to see how it works.

Do you offer this service for Bulgaria ? How can I be sure that my bills payments will be done ?

[bitwala]

Hi,

thanks for the feedback.

We offer our service for all kind of bills and invoices from a creditor who offers a SEPA bank account compensation.

Within the next days we will update with a list of supported countries.

To cite Wikipedia:

As of February 2014, SEPA consists of the 28 EU member states, the 4 members of the EFTA (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland), Monaco and San Marino.

Thank you, we will follow up here,
Bitwala

Great service but it would be more interesting in my opinion if you add altcoins to your website.

Have been using bitwa.la on and off a couple of times, very convenient, reliable and very quick. A++

I've checked your FAQ and Terms of Service but I didn't find any info about EUR Limits.
What are the limits for paying bills without registration/login using only frontend (Recipient, IBAN, Reference, Amount) on your website?

Thanks!

[picchio]

Regards

[bitwala]

Hi at all,

@ minimalB

the limit without registration is 200 € for a transfer, you can simply checkout on the frontpage using the quickpay form.

@ picchio

No, only the recipient can cancel a PayPal transfer. If you do so, please get in touch with our support to figure out the refund process.

Kind regards

Looks  like a good service.I didn't see you've mentioned about your transaction or services taxes anywhere on the website.How does the bill payment work? I pay my bills in equal btc amounts and do you charge any extra fees for this transaction ?You should expand the bill payment service to few of the Asian Countries as well.

Who is the card issuer? Where can I find the current btc/eur exchange rate?

Who is the card issuer? Where can I find the current btc/eur exchange rate?

The card issuer is MyChoice. You can see the current exchange rate in the top left corner after you log in.

The card issuer is MyChoice. You can see the current exchange rate in the top left corner after you log in.

So, to load the card with 1 BTC will cost for me: "rate in the top left corner" minus 0.5% = €393.71 (21.04.2016 17:14 UTC) - €1,96855 = €391,74 ?

Not quite. The fee is added. So in your example, to load up the card with €393.71 (= 1 BTC), you will be asked to pay 1.005 BTC = €395.68.

Maybe I was incorrectly expressed, but it is the same. In my example I have only 1 BTC (=€393.71), so I will get 0.995 BTC = €391,74.?

That is correct.

[Lasergun]

That is correct.

Very good. It is mean that you have the best exchange rate among the other bitcoin debit card providers who use the MyChoice as an card issuer (Wirex, Xapo, Cryptopay, SpectroCoin).

[Lasergun]

Do you offer only EUR card, or USD and GBP as well?
