Bitcoin learning guide

A provider account and a wallet you control are different destinations. Read the purchase and withdrawal conditions, and decide who will control the keys. Prepare the receiving destination before approving a transfer.
Work directly with our wire team. Wait for the verified bank instructions for your purchase before sending money.
Review the card’s eligibility, the complete quote, and the purchase status. Contact support before retrying a charged or pending payment.
Check whether your issuer permits crypto purchases and whether cash-advance fees or interest apply. A provider quote may exclude issuer charges.
Use an eligible U.S. bank account and review payment settlement, holds, purchase conditions, and delivery timing before confirming.
Use the official account site. Provide accurate information through the genuine verification process and follow any additional review requests. Requirements can vary by account, location, payment method, and circumstances.
Do not share a password, verification code, private key, or recovery phrase with someone claiming they will set up the purchase for you.
Check the amount you will pay, the exchange rate, the Bitcoin amount, included fees, and any separate payment or delivery charges. Note when the quote expires and whether price approval happens before execution.
A price chart is a reference, not the quote for your purchase. Review fees and disclosures.
Use the payment method and instructions approved for the current request. For a wire, wait for verified instructions before sending funds. For a card or ACH payment, check its status before attempting another payment.
Review the white-glove wire process if you would like help with a bank-funded purchase.
Use a receiving destination you understand and control. Confirm that it supports the exact asset and network. Compare the complete address with the trusted receiving instructions, including the hardware-wallet display when available.
A valid-looking address is not proof that a recipient is safe. If someone told you to move money to avoid arrest, protect a bank account, unlock profits, or solve a computer problem, stop and review the warning signs.
Keep your payment reference and purchase order ID. After a blockchain transfer is broadcast, its transaction ID can help you check network progress. A completed payment does not by itself establish that the receiving wallet has confirmed the Bitcoin.
If a stage is unclear, contact official support with the reference. Never send wallet recovery information.
Choose from the methods available to your account and location. Compare the complete cost, payment requirements, expected timing, and Bitcoin destination for your specific purchase.
No. In-store cash deposits have ended. Do not use Bitcoin POP or CDReload barcodes. Contact official support about a pending deposit, unused barcode, or past transaction.
Your payment, identity checks, purchase, and wallet transfer happen in separate steps. Check your order for the expected timing. Wire purchases usually process within 1–2 days, though compliance reviews can take longer.
Verify the provider, payment instructions, full cost, asset, receiving network, and complete wallet address. Stop if someone is pressuring you, coaching your answers, or directing you to send Bitcoin to their wallet.
Check the payment options and final price in your account. Confirm where your Bitcoin will go. If you have a question, ask us before paying.
