What are Bitcoin Cash and BCH?
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a cryptocurrency designed for peer-to-peer electronic cash. In practice, people can use it to send value directly to another person or merchant.
Bitcoin Cash began in 2017 after a split from the Bitcoin blockchain. Its design focuses on low-cost payments. BCH also has a fixed maximum supply of 21 million coins.

What payment methods can you use for Bitcoin Cash?
US customers can buy Bitcoin Cash with USD. Funding options include bank transfer, credit/debit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or a crypto transfer.
For USD funding, ACH and wire transfers can be used to deposit into a Fiat Wallet. Depositing USD via Local Bank Transfer can help you avoid foreign exchange (FX) fees when buying Bitcoin Cash with USD.
If you fund with a crypto transfer, use the deposit details shown in the App. Trying to deposit a non-supported token may result in the loss of tokens, and crypto transactions are irreversible.
Can you buy less than one Bitcoin Cash?
Yes. You don’t need to buy a whole coin because cryptocurrencies are divisible.
US customers can buy fractional amounts of Bitcoin Cash for as little as US$1. Before confirming, make sure the amount, payment method and asset are the ones you want.
