EXPERIENCES

I took out a Bitcoin-backed loan from Xapo because it just seemed to me that to use some of your Bitcoin as collateral, but not actually lose your Bitcoin, is quite a good idea. That Bitcoin is safe in the vault. I will take out that loan again.

Mark - Gibraltar

The beauty of a Bitcoin-backed loan through Xapo is that you don't have to wait for the full period. I took a loan for six months and can repay it after a few months, so I have flexibility. It’s a relief.

Mohamed - Egypt

It was tremendously easy to get a loan from Xapo. I applied. Bing, Bing, boom. I got 10 grand!

Matias - Argentina

I would much rather take a loan from Xapo than from a local bank. I like that Xapo is a Bitcoin native bank.

David - Switzerland

Xapo does not lend members’ Bitcoin and this is reassuring because other exchanges do. I know my bitcoin is secure with Xapo.

Mohamed - Egypt

I was really impressed with how fast it was to take out the loan.

Vinny - Brazil
