> Buy and Sell Cryptocurrencies Over-the-Counter

Moneybees is an over-the-counter cryptocurrency exchange in the Philippines. It enables fiat-to-crypto and crypto-to-fiat conversion through partner outlets and an online trading desk.

Moneybees is an over-the-counter cryptocurrency exchange operating in the Philippines, connecting users who want to convert cash into digital assets and back again. It works through a network of partner money changer and remittance outlets located across multiple cities, supplemented by an online trading desk accessible through chat-based ordering. The service is aimed at individuals seeking a straightforward way to buy or sell cryptocurrencies for pesos without using a conventional exchange account.

The platform addresses the friction of converting between cash and crypto by letting users complete transactions in person at a partner outlet or remotely online, avoiding the extra conversion step required on typical exchanges that only settle in crypto or require bank transfers. It is regulated as a virtual asset service provider and applies a tiered know-your-customer verification system, with higher verification tiers unlocking larger daily transaction limits. No transaction fees are charged on trades, with pricing built into the quoted buy and sell rates.

Moneybees supports trading of a range of major cryptocurrencies, with settlement delivered directly to a user's chosen wallet when buying, or paid out as cash or bank transfer when selling. Its outlet network spans numerous physical locations, complemented by digital rate lookup and chat ordering tools. The service is used by individuals in the Philippines who need convenient cash-crypto conversion outside traditional exchange platforms.
