How to use Bitcoin with SolidTrust Pay

For those who don’t know what bitcoin is, this excellent and highly simplified analogy from coindesk should answer every question you have about it — except how to actually get your hands on some! No worries, we’re going to tell you how you can easily buy bitcoin, exchange bitcoin to USD, withdraw bitcoin to your bank, or accept it as a merchant with seamless exchanges directly into your SolidTrust Pay account!

Buying Bitcoin with SolidTrust Pay

Once you’ve set up an account and a bitcoin wallet, buying bitcoin with SolidTrust Pay is fast, easy, and highly secure. We’ve been around for over 10 years, and our dedicated support staff is always ready to lend a helping hand with any transaction or account issues, as well as to clarify anything you don’t quite understand. In order to buy bitcoin with a SolidTrust Pay account, simply follow these steps:

Steps 1 – 4 will only need to be completed once, of course, and then you will be able to easily buy bitcoin with steps 5 – 7. Once your account is Standard Verified and connected to a wallet, you may withdraw up to $2500 per 24 hours from your STP account to your BTC wallet (the Bank Verified limit is $5000 per 24 hours).

Selling Bitcoin with SolidTrust Pay

Selling bitcoin is even easier with SolidTrust Pay than buying it! You only need to have your account Card Verified in order to deposit up to $250 (automatically converted to USD) from your bitcoin wallet to your SolidTrust Pay account per 24 hours. This will allow you to spend or transfer your funds online as you see fit, or make a withdrawal to your credit card in USD. The deposit limit for a Standard Verified Account is $500 per 24 hours, and Bank Verified accounts are limited to $1000 per 24 hours.

Getting Bitcoin from your Wallet to your Bank

One of the biggest challenges people often have is how to withdraw bitcoin from your wallet to your bank. Using the same steps above to connect your wallet to your SolidTrust Pay account, you simply need to go a step further and connect your Bank account to your SolidTrust Pay account. From here, all you need to do is go to the My Money –> Deposit Funds area of your account and choose the Bitcoin option (bitcoin will be automatically converted into USD). Your funds may take up to 24 hours to appear in your account, at which time you will have the option to withdraw them directly into your bank.

Accepting Bitcoin as an Online Merchant

As an online merchant, likely chest-deep in all the responsibilities that come with running a business online, it can be hard to predict and adapt to trends in the market that aren’t currently affecting your business. Luckily, adding the bitcoin option to your SolidTrust Pay button will give your customers the option to pay with bitcoin, which is then automatically converted into USD and placed in your merchant account — no bitcoin wallet required!
