i do not like virwox
i think coinmx is a good option, they offer quick verification and less large fees i think.

Can't you use local bitcoins using cash and spend the credit card on something you would normally use the credit card for, say groceries?

All that trouble for 20 bucks in bitcoin sounds a bit dramatic.

Isn't a prepaid credit card called a debit card?


it isn't really credit when you aren't borrowing it.

Generally, debit cards are hooked to an perpetually existing bank account. A prepaid CC is a temporary account that you can discard after use, it's not linked to your bank account. Prepaid CC is a more anonymous form of electronic payment.

Virwox works in a way where you have to buy second life lindell donllars (SLL or something like that) then you convert those to BTC. I think because of this they can hop across some of the legal stuff involved in buying BTC directly. The thing is, their fees aren't nice. I would look around for a good deal in your LocalBitcoin user of choice.

IMO, Buying bitcoins with Reversible payment methods is very expensive.
Is it possible for you to pay via other options?

I am from the Netherlands and also mine girl can prove there identity will create account with her identity when needed.

Heard also about https://shapeshift.io but not sure if this is a good solution

As far as I know Virwox.com don't ask for any kind of verification and they accept Visa & MasterCard , so you should be able to buy bitcoins from there without any issues .
how trustful is this?
I have used shapeshift when I needed to exchange my alternative coins to bitcoins. It was fast but they rates are high. You pay for the speed. Not noticible unless you are sticky about losing about $0.10 on a $1.20 transaction from litecoin to bitcoin. This will vary with the market price of course. That is an example from when used last March, but it was sent fast to my wallet.
If you want quick and anonymous - no account needed it is on the fly, then this is a good solution for you.

It's just 20€ prepaid credit card but lowest fees possible would be nice.

Localbitcoins or virwox if you are keeping your identity safe (not much credentials needed to be passed). Shapeshift is nice too, have you looked into it? Fees are quite off, though.

Shapeshift is run by Erik Vorhees who's a longtime Bitcoin heavyweight. It seems to have a good rep but I can't imagine there's a Visa option. Haven't looked at it myself.

Virwox is very well established. The fees are going to be pretty horrific though.

Hi there, just bought a 3v prepaid Credit Card and would like to buy some Bitcoins. What is the best place for buying Bitcoin? For now I can't buy Bitcoin on a place where you have to proof your identity because it's not valid anymore for a month now.

Who can give me some advice?

Thanks in advance Grin
