  • Unable to buy or sell

    You cannot buy or sell on the app. Only the desktop Bitcoin IRA version. The app can only be used to view prices. In addition Bitcoin IRA falsely elevates the current prices compared to other platforms.
  • Extremely limited

    Each Bitcoin needs explanation not to mention things like which coin is highest purchased that day and news on there about Bitcoin.
  • Not such a great app

    I don’t think I’ve used a financial app that was so lacking in easily accessed information. I don’t think I should have to pick up my calculator when I open my app just to see where I am compared to where I was. I’d also like a bit more market info like bid and ask. I also would like a bit more mobility with my money in the app. They might take a look at Schwab or e trade

  • Great Customer Service.

    I was hesitant at first but now as I am in the IRA I fully trust this Custodian Account Bitcoin IRA.
  • Great support & Service

    Bitcoin Ira is the easiest Exchange I have ever dealt with! Their app is easy to manage & straightforward but most of all they have live telephone support! This feature is huge! I’ve struggled with other exchanges & can only have email chats which aren’t always helpful & are annoying! Call me old fashioned but there is nothing like a Mano to Mano talk to solve a problem! Whatever you do going forward,Bitcoin, don’t lose this feature! The Big Dog!
  • Para todos tiene que ser

    Porque no ponen la aplicación en español
  • Great app, easy to use

    Found this app really easy to use. Also nice that I’ve made almost 3x my investment in the last 12 months!

  • What you get should be so much better by now

    This is my honest review after 3 weeks. From a crypto connoisseur in the space the Crypto last three years.
    A warning to my crypto brothers and sisters. Bitcoin IRA for the average crypto guru is not an app I would suggest. If my funds weren’t from an old 401K I’d never use this system. You might as well open a Roth on Wbull. The fees would be much cheaper. You don’t own the keys but you can trade as you wish paying high fees.
    Pro - your IRA is insured and protected long term. It’s a real broker that treats you just like a stock broker company.
    Pro - have an old IRA or 401K doing nothing but losing to inflation. Move it to a bitcoin IRA.
    Con - with Bitcoin IRA like a stock broker you still wait for payments to settle. Sometimes multiple days. No instant like you used to with real crypto platforms.
    Con - The app is sub par at best. Most days it shows nothing in my portfolio. You have to use your computer to get around this. Unlike real crypto where you try not using computers because they can be hacked so easily. But you don’t hold the keys so it’s not as big an issue.

    Con - they only have the top 3 Crypto unless your big on ETH classic or BItcoin cash.

    Con - The fee system is very high. 7.5% of everything you buy the house takes. Almost absurd. On top of that you pay annual $240 yearly just because the 7.5% isn’t enough I guess. It’s very disappointing. I wish I hadn’t made this mistake. But I’m in long 5-10 years so I’m not too concerned. Their docusign shows 5%. With 1% selling. Not even close. Adviser says 7.5% will cover all fees other than annual. He’s obviously on commission.

    Con - The earn system to stake you have no flexibility. You put it in, but you can’t pull it without paperwork and phone calls. Unlike traditional that you lock up for a 3, 6, 12 month terms or flexible term it automatically unlocks. Not this company. Once added it’s at minimum a call and a wait. Any of us in crypto know that isn’t usually possible things happen fast. Don’t be me. Do your research. Call and get fees in writing. I’m finding it would have been better for me to take the tax hit and just use my normal crypto brokers than pay outrageous fees both directions buying/selling. Maybe not quite but any time your paying fees this high. Unless you get lucky, it’s months/years before it pays itself off just to break even. Good luck!
  • Decent

    This is a cool idea but the price of every single crypto on here is inaccurate compared to multiple exchanges and market trackers
