SINGAPORE, SINGAPORE / ACCESSWIRE / June 22, 2020 / Derivatives exchange Bybit has added a fiat onramp that enables users to purchase cryptocurrency with credit and debit card, or a bank transfer. The fiat-crypto facility has been implemented with the support of payment providers Banxa and Xanpool. It means that Bybit users can now purchase BTC or ETH using Visa or Mastercard. Other debit and credit cards are also supported as well as the ability to purchase crypto via bank transfer.
The introduction of a fiat gateway means that Bybit users can start trading more quickly and can deposit funds directly into their account without needing to route them via third party platforms. As a result, traders will be able to capitalize on market moves faster, enabling them to optimize the size and timing of the positions they open.
Among the fiat currencies supported are USD, AUD, CAD, EUR, SGD and GBP.
