Company details

  1. Bank

Written by the company

Xapo Bank is the first fully licensed, Bitcoin-enabled bank that combines the security of traditional banking with access to Bitcoin and stablecoins. Regulated by the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission, Xapo Bank facilitates wider use cases for crypto by providing simple and secure ways to store, save, earn and transact in fiat and crypto across borders 24/7. Established in 2013, Xapo Bank was founded on the belief in the long-term potential of Bitcoin. As the first crypto company in the world to be awarded a banking license, Xapo Bank has since evolved from an e-money wallet into a digital-first bank. Xapo Bank’s proprietary technology provides a seamless bridge between traditional finance and digital assets. Following the sale of its institutional custody business to Coinbase‘s custody arm in 2019, Xapo Bank pivoted to service solely retail customers, focusing on the protection, growth and diversification of wealth.

The experience has been great

The experience has been great. The App is super user friendly and has services almost taylormade. If you have bitcoins, this is a great bank to have them deposited or "working".

In general the service is good.

In general the service is good but they can improve if the people from custumer service could directly help you with your issues instead of just open tickets.

I wrote a negative review, must correct

I wrote a negative review about a misplaced transfer and ability to contact chat on the app. I emailed support and was dealt with promptly and efficiently. It restored my trust in Xapo.
I stand corrected.

Basically

Basically, the user experience is very smooth, but there is a suggestion that if you accept legal currencies other than the US dollar, I hope to keep multiple foreign currency accounts.

Not what they say they are

This bank is somehow of a facade. They prentend they are crypto friendly but when asked deeper they actively refuse crypto investor clients (personal experience and got this written on email from their team as proof)

When talking to their customer service in English it feels like you are talking to a robot. Or they don't speak English at all or they just auto generate their emails by chatgpt. Either way, if you try to ask a human question, you get a totally different response about something else.

Getting in contact with this bank is horrible as I not only experienced myself but also other users have given me this feedback.

Long story short I think this bank is not all what it seems and has alot of work to improve.

Increase the convenience of transfer

1. Increase the transfer on other chains, such as BSC chain, TRC chain, etc. Digital currency wallets do not contain enough chains of ERC, and XAPO transfers are not convenient enough. 2. Please reduce the annual fee. $1,000 per year is too much. Adopt consumption target, deposit target strategy? Is there a detailed strategy for reducing the annual fee?

Is it worth $1K/year. Not by a long run...

It works well as a payment system and I don't have many issues in receiving USDT or USDC. But if I receive any fiat payments, there's always an issue.

I used to receive EUR in seconds, now no matter what I have to call in and they will confirm its in, tell me to wait 48 hours every time, and after 48 hours I need to start another chat for them to open a ticket and I receive it 5 days later.

They refuse to open an investigation on why this happens and confirmed that I don't have any restrictions on the account.

Support is a 5/10 experience at best. Slap a $1k yearly fee on this and it's not worth it by a long run.

Great app, poor communication and service.

I opened my account in Australia and i was planning to use the debit card on my long travel across europe. I send the money to the account and waited for the card to arrive, it was taking long so i check with support why, and they told me that they dont have debit card for Australian users (they didn't said this in the whole process of the account set up).
I ask to support if i could talk with a supervisor and they made me to book a video call (it wasn't a close date for that so i had to book for the next month) and when the date finally was close, i received a mail to postpone it because the account manager wasn't available.
The app works great and im happy with that, but for a service that cost 1000 usd per year, you expect better communication about which services you are going to get and what not.
And of course you expect a better support service.
So i couldn't speak with my account manager (salvador) and i have money in the account but i cant use it because i dont have a debit card.

We understand your frustration with the lack of clarity regarding debit card availability for Australian users. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. We are committed to improving our communication and ensuring that all relevant information is readily available throughout the account setup process.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the support experience. We strive to provide timely and efficient assistance to our customers. We will investigate the delay in scheduling your video call and the postponement due to the account manager's unavailability.

My experience has been so go

My experience has been so go until now.

The Bank issued the debit card and sent it to Argentina in less than a week!

The app is easy-to-use, fast and reliable.

Xapo deserves five stars!
I´m just putting four because i am worried about the possibility that they will want to charge me 1000 USD in annual commission next year. If that happens, I'll delete the app forever.
