Easy to install, understand and to handle transactions. I might be one of the safest ways to buy bitcoins on the market yet.
Very userfriendly and easy to understand/use.
You can pay with it.
When you send money to your wallet it doesn’t take long until you receive it.
I like the easy way to use the app. Support is also very helpful. It takes some times for the response, so be patience with the support team. They always help!
Great bitcoin only company. Never had issues buying every month for over a year. No funny business when we pump. Easy to use
the functionality of the app is simple and secure, to recommend for everyone
easy and practical to understand
It's really shocking and disgusting!
Last year I started investing with Relai.
At the beginning, I didn't need to upload any documents. Also, I wasn't worried about documents as I have a Swiss residency C permit, which has been enough for me to open accounts before with UBS, DEGIRO, and Interactive Brokers.
But yesterday, when I tried to verify my identity with my passport to have more features, my account was suddenly blocked. They didn't even ask for my residency permit or any other proof.
The “support” team just told me that my nationality isn't supported and that they can block people without giving any reason.
So, even though I have been living in Switzerland for 7 years, and my Swiss permit was enough to open accounts with UBS and other companies, it didn't matter to Relai because of my Russian passport.
This is twice as weird after reading their claim that one does not need providing documents to start investing.
Honestly, ever since the war began, my passport has led to many tough moments. But usually, people are really kind and supportive about it.
This situation, though, makes me feel as if I’ve personally done something terribly wrong and have been punished and discriminated for that.
Simply disgusting!
