Long requested – now live.
You can now use your BitcoinVN balance (or freshly converted crypto, including all major stablecoins such as USDT or USDC*) directly for in-store payments – with instant conversion happening in the back end.
No more waiting for VND settlements to hit a recipient bank account.
For tourists, travelers, and those without access to a local bank account, this opens up a convenient way to cover local expenses – without carrying wads of cash or exposing personal credit card details to potential leaks.
Why use BitcoinVN Balance?
So, first of all, the usual disclaimer:
We strongly recommend not using our platform as a bank – keep any significant savings in wallets you control.
If you’re in Vietnam and need the right tools, BitcoinVN Shop has you covered.
If you’re ready to move toward self-custody but need guidance, our in-house consulting team is available for bookings.
Now, to the meat of the matter:
For a spending wallet, keeping some funds in a custodial balance is probably fine – and it’s the fastest way to convert crypto into VND via our instant settlement option.
Why? No delays waiting for blockchain confirmations.
Three quick tips for using the instant VND option:
🚫 Sending a Bitcoin on-chain transaction and expecting VND in a recipient’s bank account within seconds? Not gonna happen.
🚀 For near-instant transactions while keeping self-custody, use Bitcoin Lightning or faster L1 chains like Solana, Polygon, or Binance Smart Chain – they offer almost the same speed without compromising control.
💡 Bonus: If you’re an active liquidity provider on the BitcoinVN swap exchange, you can even use staked coins and instantly convert them into VND payouts.
