> Buy cryptocurrencies at the best price

Bitnovo is a non-custodial cryptocurrency platform for buying, selling, swapping, and storing digital assets. It serves individuals through cards, bank transfers, and retail vouchers, and businesses through crypto payments, APIs, and OTC trades.

Bitnovo is a European cryptocurrency platform that lets individuals and businesses buy, sell, swap, and store digital assets. Its self-custody wallet keeps private keys with the user, while the web platform handles purchases, sales, and exchanges between assets. The company focuses on simple access to crypto for beginners and experienced users alike.

Users buy crypto by card, SEPA bank transfer, or vouchers bought with cash at retail stores and redeemed in the app, and sell it for euros paid to a bank account by instant transfer. Recurring purchases support dollar-cost averaging, and a gift card store lets users spend crypto on cards from retail brands. Because the wallet is self-custodial, funds stay under the user's control rather than on an exchange.

The consumer buy and sell platform is the flagship, alongside Bitnovo Wallet for self-custody storage. For businesses, Bitnovo Pay lets merchants accept crypto and settle in euros, Bitnovo Ramp and a public API let platforms embed buying and selling, and an OTC desk handles high-volume trades. Retailers can also sell Bitnovo vouchers in store or through a Bitnovo ATM. Bitnovo is used by retail buyers, merchants, fintechs, and high-volume traders.
