In the next part of the article, we will show you how to use your credit or debit card to buy Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

How to Buy Bitcoin with your Credit or Debit Card on Binance.com and Binance Desktop

The Binance.com website has a dedicated section where you can choose which cryptocurrency to buy (Bitcoin in this case) and what local card you want to use (Visa or MasterCard).

This similar interface for buying crypto is also present on the Binance Desktop program, which mirrors what’s on the website, but with faster loading speeds, as components that would have taken a second to load via the Web are already loaded in your program for added convenience.

The step-by-step instructions for buying Bitcoin are exactly the same for both platforms. Follow these instructions below.

1. On your Internet browser, go to Binance.com and login with your Binance account. If you don’t have one, click here to open a Binance account.

2. On the menu bar at the top left side of the website or desktop app, go to Buy Crypto and select Credit/Debit Card.

3. You are now led to a new page where you can proceed with your Bitcoin purchase. Select your preferred local currency and enter the amount you want to spend. (Please note that there are minimum and maximum amounts you can enter for each corresponding local currency. Then, under Coin, select BTC (or your preferred cryptocurrency). Then, click Buy BTC.

4. A pop-up window will open on the website where you can enter your card information, such as your card number, expiry date, and CVV code. Enter these details, then click Next. You’ll be prompted to enter more information such as your country, address, city, and postal code. Once you’re done, click Pay Now.

5. You will now see a Confirm Order prompt, where you can check if your order is correct. To confirm your order, click the checkbox beside the “I have read and agree to…” section and then the Confirm button. Please note that you have 60 seconds to confirm your order.

How to Buy Bitcoin on Binance App Lite

3. Tap the yellow trade icon in the middle of the screen and choose Buy.

4. Search for Bitcoin, then enter the amount of local currency you want to use for the transaction. You also have the option to enter how much Bitcoin you want to buy or to change the local currency you want to use.

5. You will be led to a page where you can choose whether you want to pay with cash deposit or credit/debit card. If it’s your first time using a credit card for the transaction, select “Change Card” and select “Pay with new card.” You can then proceed to enter the details of the card that you want to use for this transaction.

6. Once you’ve confirmed the card that you will use, you can proceed to confirm your transaction. Click “Confirm” to push through with your purchase. (Please note that you have 60 seconds to confirm the transaction at the rate displayed on the screen). You will then see a summary of details for your transactions.
