Bitvavo has outlined its roadmap for the full integration of credit card deposits. By the first week of March, the platform plans to release the feature to the full customer base. This update will also introduce the ability to save credit card details on file, streamlining the deposit process for future transactions.

From March 4, 2024, all Bitvavo users will enjoy the full benefits of credit card deposits across both the website and the mobile app. This expansion is geared towards making digital asset transactions more accessible, convenient, and secure for everyone on the platform.

Supported cards and security measures

Bitvavo supports deposits made with Mastercard and Visa credit cards, excluding Maestro, gift cards, prepaid cards, and business credit cards due to the potential risks associated with these types of cards. Users are advised to contact their banks if they receive automatic alerts for transactions, as this is a common security measure for crypto platform transactions
