I wonder, no one is suggesting https://btc2bid.com (I remember they had a successful signature campaign here)
I agree it is not exactly an alternative to localbitcoins, still their services may help us to buy / sell bitcoin with our local people.

Aside from the other suggestions given previously, I think that btc-e.com also accepts a variety of payment options including bank transfer,Visa,MasterCard, paysafecard,and PerfectMoney.
You should also check out bitpanda(coinimal), and alfacashier as I have seen that they also accept paypal, okpay.

First, thank you for the quick answer.
This is actually the first time i'm visiting Paxful website and seem pretty nice. you've got several payment options (seem to have more than 100 payment methods).

Have you alread used it before?
Do you have good feedback?

I'm actually living in Brussel so i want to be able to make trades in Euro and mostly use Paysafecard or different types of vouchers
i can vouch for paxful. it is one of the most trusted exchange website.  you can check their social account to see the feedbacks of the users and get the latest news about the exchange website. good luck!

An alternative to Localbitcoin would be paxful, or this forum here. If you plan on doing deals here, you should use escrow so that you don't get scammed. Here' s a list of escrow providers: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcointalk-escrows-trade-safely-855778. If you are using Paxful, if someone tells you that they an provide a better rate outside of their escrow system, then they are most likely scammers and you shouldn't deal with them.

There is one paxful but i haven't used them till now. Seem lots of other have done transaction there and they also provide inbuilt escrow service like localbitcoin. Till now i haven't seen any actively trading platform alternative to localbitcoin, you may try paxful with lower amount at first and than if you think they can be trusted you can use them. Just saying better to try first because i haven't traded even a single time there.

Here on forum are also some members who are selling or buying Bitcoins for Paypal, Skrill, Paysafecard and other ways of making payment. If you decide to go this way this is definetly an alternative but you have to be careful and choose trusted members with good trading history and reputation. And use escrow.

You have few options here . Virwox.com could be your first option as they accept payment methods that most of exchanges don't (PayPal , Ukash , Paysafecard and more) however , their fees are considered as a little bit high. Still , they are legit and people use them when they have to (maybe It's your case).
Another solution you could think of is using the currency exchange section (on Bitcointalk) where you open a thread and set the payment method + fees that fit you and wait for a seller/buyer . Keep in mind that people will probably not trade with you If you are using a reversible payment method (specially If it's you who is using it , for their BTC) as you have no trading history here or a high rank.
Finally , there is https://bitsquare.io/ which is something like OpenBazaar but for exchanging BTC. (I never tried myself and I guess It's still under development for the moment but you could give it a shot)

Well, the closest service I know which can fill profile you presented is Paxful. Paxful is a Peer to Peer Bitcoin marketplace connecting buyers with sellers.

https://paxful.com/

There are of course numerous centralized and even some decentralized exchanges with more standard profile. Question is where you are based and which currency you want to use?

Hello Guys,

I have quite an easy question.
Are there some fine alternatives to localbitcoin that allow you to buy and send bitcoin with several type of payment methods (physically meetings, SEPA, Paypal, Paysafecards...). I'm mostly speaking for Europe exchange but worldwide would be even better

I've search on old topics but all sites seem to have been closed since. (www.100bit.co.in) or bitquick but seem to be only for the US.

TY
