Your Bitcoin belongs in your wallet.
Every purchase is delivered straight to an address you control. We don't hold your funds, and there are no separate withdrawal steps. You hold your own private keys, and if you need help setting that up, our team is happy to walk you through it.
What do I need to get started?
Create an Express account and complete identity verification. Add and verify a receiving address from a Bitcoin wallet you control, then follow the funding instructions. Your purchase is delivered to your active approved address.
How do I fund my account?
You can fund your account in Canadian dollars by e-Transfer or bank wire. Follow the instructions in your approved account. Limits and processing times depend on the funding method and any required review.
Can I speak to a broker?
Yes. Our team can help with questions about buying Bitcoin and self-custody. For larger purchases or buying through your company, speak with a broker about the appropriate service.
Where can I see the fees?
The Fees and Information link below takes you to our current fee information. Review the price and applicable fees before confirming your transaction, and ask our team if anything is unclear.
Do I need to buy $100,000 to use 1Bitcoin?
No. Express is available for everyday Bitcoin purchases. The separate OTC service is for larger transactions. You can start by creating an Express account and reviewing its current purchase limits.
What does FINTRAC registration mean?
1Bitcoin is registered as a money services business with FINTRAC. Registration is not an endorsement or a guarantee of your funds. Bitcoin’s price can fall, and self-custody requires you to protect your wallet and recovery phrase.
