Tax Lot Tracking

River implementing automatic withdrawals was a major step towards becoming the best Bitcoin platform on the market. The only thing left is to integrate their tax lot tracking with addresses used exclusively with River and the platform will be perfect.

Another nice to have would be Plaid integration in order to track gains in budgeting applications.

Thank you for the feedback! We have marked this for our product team. We are always looking to give our clients the best experience possible, so we will make sure that they have visibility on this.

Very Disappointed

I was giving this service a trial run by sending some sats out of an account. Completed the entire sky-net like facial recognition scan & pictures of my ID etc. Received an email a couple days later stating that River did not approve my submission. I requested an explanation as to why they did not accept my submission & they did not produce any reason or answer. They only responded “River has a very robust security process in place because sending Bitcoin is an irreversible action”. Very poor excuse. The Client Service team was courteous, professional & tried to help me within their power. The ‘compliance’ team is useless. I’ve used countless services with a similar security protocol & have never experienced this. River needs to fix this.

I was so impatient to carry out necessary research but i really wanted to jump on the crypto trading and investment buzz.
Unfortunately for me, I invested 70,000 GBP
worth of bitcoin with a fraudulent company. I was happy to watch my account grow to 240,000 GBP within a couple of weeks. But i didn't realize i was dealing with a scam company, until i tried to make an attempt to withdraw. I made a withdrawal request, and noticed my account was suddenly blocked for no apparent reason. I tried contacting customer support, but all to no avail. I needed my money back at all cost, because i could not afford to let it go. So i tried all possible means to make sure i recovered my scammed bitcoin. I did a lot of online search for help, and tried to see if there were other people who had any similar experience. I stumbled upon a cryptocurrency forum were a couple of people mentioned that they had been through the same process but were able to recover their lost cryptocurrency, funds with the help of kyson_aldertech on Instagram So i file a report and he was able to help me get back all my lost funds within two weeks i feel indebted to him. Apart from trying to express my gratitude to them once again using this medium, I will recommend anybody who wants to recover scammed bitcoin, stolen cryptocurrency, funds lost to binary options forex, investment and any other form of online scam, reach out to kyson_aldertech on Instagram.

This is the way

I’ve been buying bitcoin for a few years now from multiple exchanges. River is by far the best way to get bitcoin. For one, you’re getting the best price because it direct from a miner and two, NO FEES. I also appreciate the fact that River encourages their consumers to self custody their bitcoins. The whole experience is user friendly and, they provide REAL customer service.

River Bitcoin: The Ultimate Bitcoin Investment Solution

I've been using River Bitcoin for all my dollar-cost averaging Bitcoin purchases, and I couldn't be happier with their service. The platform's user interface is top-notch, making it a breeze to navigate. What sets them apart is the incredibly low slippage and the fact that they offer zero fees when you set up a DCA. It's a game-changer for anyone looking to invest in Bitcoin regularly. Plus, their automatic transfer to cold storage adds an extra layer of security and convenience. Highly recommended!

My favorite way to buy Bitcoin.

Love the no fee (after 1 week) auto dca. Makes it easy and cheap to convert my dirty fiat into Bitcoin. Plus you can pay lightning invoices from the app and buy mining rigs too.

Thank you for the review! Glad you are enjoying the product

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Literally every single thing about River is Phenomenal! I feel like their one time purchase fee is a bit excessive, but I will happily pay that fee in support of Alex and everything he’s built. River is hands down the best Bitcoin company in the market today.

Beautiful and easy to use

The River app is a pleasure to use…. form, and function perfectly blend together for a reliable, seamless and logical user interface. And, River’s beautiful, clean branding makes it it a pleasurable experience each time I make a purchase.
