Frequently asked questions

Which exchanges accept Credit or debit card in Madagascar?

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

Is buying bitcoin with Credit or debit card legal in Madagascar?

Bitcoin is legal in Madagascar by default: no legislation prohibits or regulates it. The central bank has confirmed that cryptocurrencies are unregulated, warned the public about the risks, and studied a digital version of the ariary rather than building a crypto framework. That means no local licensing, no consumer protection, and no legal recourse if a platform or counterparty fails, so the practical safeguards are choosing reputable offshore platforms and self-custody.
