What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is a decentralised peer-to-peer payment network and completely digital money.
It runs on peer-to-peer technology, so transactions and the issuing of bitcoins are managed collectively by the network rather than by a central authority or bank.
Behind the scenes, the Bitcoin network shares a public ledger known as the blockchain. This ledger holds every transaction ever processed, which helps users verify transactions without relying on a single central operator.

Ways to pay when buying Bitcoin in Singapore
You can hold SGD or USD as fiat currency on your account.
You can add funds by FAST bank transfer in SGD or Swift transfer in USD, both free on Crypto.com, as well as by debit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, or by transferring crypto to your wallet. Availability depends on your account and payment method, so do review the payment details before confirming.
Can you buy less than one Bitcoin?
Yes. Bitcoin is divisible up to eight decimal places into smaller units called satoshis, so you don't need to buy a whole Bitcoin.
In the Crypto.com App, you can buy fractional amounts of Bitcoin. The minimum depends on your payment method: SGD 1 for direct purchases with Apple Pay or Google Pay, SGD 20 by card, and SGD 50 by FAST bank transfer.
