Your User Account – Protected by High Security Standards

Bitcoin Suisse applies the highest physical, technical, and procedural security standards for the safekeeping of your user account, in line with industry best practice.

  • Strengthening account security with Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

    Your account's safety is of utmost importance to us. To enhance security, we implement time-based two-factor authentication using mobile applications like Authy. In addition to your login credentials, you enter a code from your authenticator app on your mobile phone, which provides an additional layer of security for your account at Bitcoin Suisse.

  • Double layer protection for account withdrawals

    All account withdrawals require entering two-factor authentication along with email address confirmation, ensuring utmost security and peace of mind for your trans-actions.

Trading with Bitcoin Suisse – Highest Security Through Best Execution and Prefunded Trades

As one of the first crypto brokers, Bitcoin Suisse has introduced a Best Execution Policy. This policy outlines our dedication to securing the most attainable price and speed of execution for our clients, all while ensuring comprehensive transparency on price details, trading fees, and execution venue.

Beyond our Best Execution approach, Bitcoin Suisse goes the extra mile by assuming the counterparty risk when you trade with us. This is an essential step, as crypto trading venues require pre-funding.
