Can you still buy bitcoin with debit card on coinbase?

**Optional** · 06-28-19, 10:31 AM

I have not heard of the option going away.

Probably just need to add the card again.

Not used it for a while maybe?

Thanks,i don't know what's going on,i tried to add it again,but the only options are bank deposit or wire

Hey Michael, good observation. They have re-formatted the site and it sucks IMO. We used to click "accounts" then "deposit" and you are correct, the only option there is bank account for some reason.

When you are on the home page, now click "Bitcoin" it should be the first one under your portfolio balance and "Get Started"

Just click "Bitcoin" and on the right hand side the "Buy Bitcoin" option will come up with the value amount and the Debit Card option is in there.

It took me a few minutes to find this, but rest assured you can still use your debit card to purchase Bitcoin through Coinbase this way.

Hope this helps and BOL!

Question Funnyb- is the maximum limit now 200 a week for debit card users or do you think it’s different for everyone? Mine seems to be 200 right now and used to be a lot more.

It's different based on the person, mine is $7500/week limit with a debit card. Once you start buying with that option and have a history of no issues, the limit will increase (although I haven't used the debit card option in over a year, so I'm surprised they haven't cut my limit).

**Natty68** · 06-28-19, 01:51 PM

Does that include the reloadable cards or just the ones anchored with a bank account?

Is this a message at Coinbase you got?

And did you ask them about it?

Same thing happened to me there a while back. I asked for a reason for being banned and their response was they don't have to give me a reason. Very frustrating. I'm assuming it's because I was buying and doing multple sends in one day. They don't charge a send fee and I guess they don't like people taking advantage of that. I don't see why they don't just charge a fee rather than banning people with no warning.

The company seems strangely run boarder line shady...I did have some days where I did 4 or 5 all under 200$ and always sent to middle...with the miners fee no charge they didn’t make much off my transactions...not sure how they make money

I know. I just never had a company ban me without giving me a reason why. It makes no sense.

Master card or just v iSA? I find most of these places only take v isa. Is it instant. And how is verification process? Do you have to send them 27 documents and 12 selfies of you holding documents?

**cornmeal** · 07-10-19, 02:15 PM

I am not sure, I just received the email from them this morning

**bonzaii** · 07-10-19, 04:27 PM

penetrate Coinbase. Nailed with fees for debit card purchases than nailed again by your bank for an international transaction. Than penetrated again sending money to another wallet only to get fck hard again sending it again to final destination. Cash App so much better if using debit card. Better off using local bitcoins too and finding someone to exchange your dollars for coin using a big bank.
