Frequently asked questions

Which exchanges accept Credit or debit card in Mauritius?

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

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

Bitcoin is legal in Mauritius and the sector is regulated. The Virtual Asset and Initial Token Offering Services (VAITOS) Act came into force on February 7, 2022, requiring virtual asset service providers to be licensed and supervised by the Financial Services Commission under five license classes with anti-money-laundering obligations. Global exchanges serving Mauritian residents generally operate from abroad without a local VAITOS license, so local legal protections may not apply to them.
