Frequently asked questions

Which exchanges accept Credit or debit card in Equatorial Guinea?

Of the 3 exchanges we recommend in Equatorial Guinea, Binance, Coinmama, Paxful accept Credit or debit card for funding purchases.

Is buying bitcoin with Credit or debit card legal in Equatorial Guinea?

No law in Equatorial Guinea prohibits individuals from buying or holding bitcoin. The country belongs to the CEMAC monetary zone, where the regional banking commission COBAC banned supervised banks, microfinance institutions, and payment providers from holding or processing crypto in May 2022. That leaves personal ownership legal by default but cuts the formal financial system out of the market, so there is no licensed local exchange and no consumer protection.
