View offers

Real offers, protected by escrow. Browse offers from traders worldwide and pay by bank transfer, cash or 300+ other methods. The crypto stays locked in escrow until the trade completes.

A wallet only you control. Hold and swap Bitcoin, Ethereum and stablecoins in a non-custodial wallet. Your private keys never leave your hands, and trades settle on-chain through smart contracts and Bitcoin scripts.

Escrow with nothing to hide

When a trade opens, the crypto is locked on-chain by a smart contract or a Bitcoin script. The rules that hold it and release it are public, so you can see exactly how your funds are protected.

How it works

Trade with confidence on the first P2P exchange market.

01 Create your account

Sign up with your email and get free non-custodial wallets, locked with a PIN only you know.

02 Find an offer

Browse offers from real traders and filter by crypto, payment method and country to find the right price.

03 Trade with escrow

Start the trade and the crypto locks in escrow. Pay, chat with your trader, and it's released to your wallet.

Nothing moves until it's paid

The crypto waits in escrow from the moment a trade opens until the payment is confirmed.

Neither side has to go first on trust. The seller's crypto locks in escrow when the trade starts, and it's released to the buyer only once the payment is confirmed.

Convert Bitcoin to cash or use hundreds of other payment methods, with the same protection on every trade.
