never occurred to me. it was great your idea. can not wait to use it. however, how the provider is used.
Can for the whole world or a particular country.
 then how much it costs for each transaction.

Hi Nerazzura,

Glad you like it! We are excited to see how it will be used.

The service is available worldwide, except US.
We are always looking for ways to expand into the US but it is not possible at this time.

Coinapult pay the transaction fees (miners fees) for you.
There will obviously be the cost of a txt msg, which will depend on your contract.


Wow, nice! This is a neat idea. It would be awesome if this was made available in the US soon!

And what happens at the other side, say I send BTC to someone, and that someone doesn't knows much/none about bitcoin. Do they get their wallet made linked to their phone number as soon as they receive bitcoin?

They automatically have an account generated for them and are ready to start transacting immediately. The SMS wallet is integrated into our website and vice-versa, so people with internet access will graduate to the full bitcoin experience.

This is very interesting, kinda like tipping someone over the phone, And what happens at the other side, say I send BTC to someone, and that someone doesn't knows much/none about bitcoin. Do they get their wallet made linked to their phone number as soon as they receive bitcoin?

Great servic! The problem is that they act as bitcoin wallet providers and can be seen as bank. The service is like " phone banking" for your bitcoin.
