Hi guys,
CoinGate team is happy to inform that we have enabled this feature - to buy Bitcoin with Mobile Credit!
Now you are able to buy a few Satoshi by calling or sending SMS to a premium number. This feature is perfect if you'd like to buy a small amount of bitcoins, more or less worth of $50.
For the first turn, we have introduced buying Bitcoin with Mobile Credit in 19 countries: Austria, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Luxembourg, Norway, Poland, Slovakia, Sweden, Switzerland, and United Kingdom.
For the nearest future, we are going to expand this feature to other countries and allow to buy other cryptocurrencies with this method.
However, we would like to note that now we are asking users to register and verify their identity before making a purchase due to security reasons.
If you are interested to get to know more, you can check the guide on our website: https://coingate.com/buy-bitcoin-mobile
Best regards,
CoinGate team
Topic: Any ways to buy bitcoin using mobile credit? (Read 3619 times)
Are there any sites that exchanges bitcoin for your phone balance? Sometimes I have extra balance that would go to waste so I might as well use it to buy some bits with that.
Although there might be such a service, it might differ for different locations. I would want a service like that, where you can charge it to your phone bills instead or use the balance, any thoughts?
Don't use these type of services in the first place. This is the most inefficient way of paying for goods or services. Fees are too high, usually mobile payment processor takes 10% to even 30% of total sum of money. Although there might be such a service, it might differ for different locations.

Do not know any service like that, but it would be really cool to have one.
Phone companies usually offer credit for free also, which would mean some free pieces of BTC.

This sounds like good thing. I'm from Serbia so I can expect this will work here for 10 year's (if we are lucky). It is good that this work somewhere already, I think there will be more and more ways how to buy bitcoins in future and I hope that will come to my country also.
Since I'm a prepaid user, I wouldn't have much use for this. I don't topup my phone a whole lot anyway
But it's a nice idea for people who are on a subscription plan. You would still have to pay it on your monthly bill though

After playing many games, I found that most of them accept bitcoin as a form of payment, and sometimes I have extra balance on my phone to spare, so might as well use it to buy something. Any other methods to 'convert' the phone balance into other online currency (most commonly used like paypal), could also work I guess.
The site bitby.co is not done yet, but I'm looking forward to the start of it, and I hope it accepts plenty of locations too, including mine.

I would like to have a service like this.
The site that WaterSupply suggested, it doesn't work, says they're still under construction

Hi
I have found the following website that looks like exactly the service you are looking for.
http://bitby.co/
Check it out, it seems it may be the ideal solution for you as they accept multiple currencies. Ok then, cheers

There's already a service like that. I do not know in your country though. Here in the Philippines, I can buy bits using my phone credits, thru Coins.ph The downside is it's almost at a 10% fee.
