Starting today, non-US clients can choose where to trade: in their non-interest bearing account, the Wallet, or in their crypto interest-bearing account, the BlockFi Interest Account (BIA).
This new feature allows users to both trade and earn from the same account. There’s no need to transfer funds back and forth from the BIA to the Wallet or vice versa. Simply log in to BlockFi via the web app, click Buy or Sell, and select the account with which you want to use to buy/sell. It’s that simple.
Non-US users can now buy 40+ cryptos directly from BIA and earn up to 15% APY in crypto interest!
The ability to earn crypto interest on 40+ assets is only available to BlockFi clients with BlockFi Interest Accounts (BIAs) in eligible regions.
Questions? We're here to help you 24/7. Contact us.
Note: Trading in the BlockFi Interest Account is currently available in web app and iOS mobile app for non-US users only.
APYs reflect effective yield based on monthly compounding. Actual yield will vary based on account activity and compliance with BlockFi’s terms and conditions. Rates are largely dictated by market conditions, which are a key factor in BlockFi’s ability to provide our clients yield on their crypto assets. For more information, please see BlockFi's Terms of Service.
The BlockFi Interest Account has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States, to U.S. persons, for the account or benefit of a U.S. person or in any jurisdiction in which such offer would be prohibited.
