Hi everyone!
We’re back with some awesome updates since our last Product Hunt launch.
Today, 🇨🇦Canadians🇨🇦 use Shakepay to buy/sell bitcoin and to pay their friends. It’s super easy, you sign up, tell us who you are, send us an Interac e-Transfer, and bam! you’re owning crypto.
We’ve worked really hard on making it easy to get set up. ⅓ of our users go from signup to owning bitcoin in less than one hour. Our fastest user took only 5 minutes (a potentially beatable record)!
We’re lightning FAST
Interac e-transfers are deposited and made available in your account instantly (see delighted customers here, here, here, here, and here).
Our fees are transparent and posted online. It’s free to send money in and out of Shakepay and to your friends. We only charge 1.75% for exchanges.
Tons of new features are being added every week. Here’s a few updates from our Product Blog:
- Referral program
- Improving buy and sell rates
- Send money to a phone number
- Fund your wallet with Bitcoin
- Cashing out via e-Transfer
- Wire transfers supported
We’ve also posted some Bitcoin related content:
- Best practice: Control your bitcoin and crypto private keys 🔐
- Why the Lindy Effect predicts Bitcoin will last
- You really gotta feel for Canadians wanting to buy bitcoin
Last time we were on PH we had received amazing feedback so we’re paying it forward with a thank you to all. Sign up today via Product Hunt and you’ll get $10 when you buy your first bitcoin!
Let us know if you have any questions and we’d love to hear your feedback once you give it a try. And if you’re a developer looking for a new calling, we're hiring.
Great product, simple, reliable and fast! Great support team, based in Montreal, Qc. French and english support. Great rates to buy btc and eth, interac e transfers for instant funding and very fast cashout... 😅
i think they take more commission when you sell your coins...
So taking less when you want to get in crypto and taking an higher share once you made it.... Good buisness view 😉
@radius777 glad to hear the feedback, thanks!
Re: your point about higher rates on the sell side, this should have been fixed in this update. Can you let me know if you're still seeing similar issues?

@aiouy Sure, but like i said... for me it is not an issue. 😉 Just great buisness.

This is not correct. Shakepay fees are cheaper than most exchanges.
I’m one of the early adopters of Shakepay. It’s the easiest and fastest way for Canadians to buy BTC (and now ETH)! It’s designed for Canadian audience, works with Interac e-transfer and yet gives the best prices (kind you get on Int’l exchanges). Keep up the good work, and add more cryptos
Great product with a great team. It’s how I got started with Bitcoin
