Bitrefill payment FAQ
What should I do if Bitrefill declines or doesn't support my card?
Pay with a Halocard instead. Bitrefill accepts it, and as a US-issued Visa credit card held in US dollars it is accepted at checkouts that are strict about card type or country. Halocard is available for customers in the US and 120+ countries, so check that your country is supported, then make a card for Bitrefill in minutes. See the countries Halocard supports.
Can I use a virtual card for Bitrefill?
Yes. Bitrefill accepts Halocard, a US-issued Visa credit card that works like a debit card. Make a card just for Bitrefill and you are in full control: set a limit, lock it or cancel it whenever you like, without ever handing Bitrefill your bank card.
Can I keep my real card and address private from Bitrefill?
Yes. Bitrefill only ever sees your Halocard, never your bank card. You choose the cardholder name and billing address on each card, so your home address stays out of Bitrefill's records. If Bitrefill is ever caught up in a data breach, cancel that one card and make a new one in seconds.
Can I buy Bitrefill gift cards with a credit card?

Does Bitrefill accept Apple Pay?
Yes. Apple Pay and Google Pay are both on Bitrefill's list of supported non-crypto payment methods and show on its product pages. Bitrefill notes that the wallets may not appear on some devices or browsers; if that happens, enter your card details directly instead.
