Just received an email today from Bitstamp Support
The recent upswing in the value of bitcoin, edging past $1,800 this week, has significantly increased demand for this digital currency here at Bitstamp. So, what better time to make buying bitcoin even easier for our US customers?
That’s why we are delighted to announce that we have now added the USA to the list of countries where our customers can buy bitcoin by Visa or MasterCard credit/debit card.*
Only a one-time verification of your card details is required before instant bitcoin purchases on Bitstamp are yours.
To get started:
• Go to the deposit page and choose credit card from the side menu
• Choose the amount you would like to spend
• Enter your card details and click ‘submit’
And then you’re good to go!
This service has been brought to you in cooperation with our partner, Simplex. For any further information, please contact our support team at support@bitstamp.net.
Happy trading!
The Bitstamp Team
*The debit/credit card purchasing functionality is already available to our customers in the EU and 60 other countries around the world.
