Which banks let you buy crypto with a card?

At Anytime Capital, all of them. Every institution on this page — Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citi, Capital One, US Bank, PNC, the regionals, the fintechs and the credit unions — works on debit, and all major credit cards are accepted here too: Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover. Card acceptance is our decision as the merchant; the final authorization on any single transaction is always your issuer's.

Are credit cards really accepted from every bank on this list?

Yes. Anytime Capital accepts all major credit cards from every bank, fintech and credit union on this page, which is unusual — most crypto platforms either refuse credit outright or get declined by issuers that blocked crypto on credit back in 2018. That is the practical difference this page is documenting: the same card that gets turned away elsewhere is accepted here.

Which banks blocked crypto on credit cards?

The documented 2018 blocks: Capital One (January), Chase, Bank of America, Citi, TD Bank and Discover (February), Wells Fargo (June), and USAA — positions those issuers still publish in 2026, and the reason their cardholders are used to being declined at crypto sites. Anytime Capital accepts those cards; whether a specific transaction authorizes remains between you and your issuer.

Does my bank's debit card really work at Anytime Capital?

Yes — debit cards from all US banks work here, subject only to your bank's routine fraud check on a first purchase (approve the text and retry). Anytime Capital is a US-based money services business with thousands of customers; card orders verify in minutes.

Why did my bank decline a crypto purchase if it 'works'?

Three ordinary reasons: a first-time fraud screen (approve the alert and retry), a daily card limit, or an issuer that has decided to decline crypto on that particular credit product. The fix is nearly always approving the text and retrying, switching to the debit card, or using Apple Pay, which trips fewer screens.

Can my bank stop me from buying crypto at all?

Banks control their own cards and transfers, and a few are stricter than others — but ACH, wires, Apple Pay, and cash at our branches mean there is always a working route. No US bank prohibits customers from owning crypto purchased at licensed businesses.

What's the best bank for buying crypto?

For card buying, any bank on this page works — debit and credit alike. The friendliest overall in our customers' experience: Ally and the fintechs (clean ACH, no blocks), plus Schwab for wires. The strictest first-purchase screening: PNC. Every bank's specifics are one click away in the table above.

Bank crypto policies

Buy crypto with any bank's card

Every bank answers the crypto question differently — debit versus credit, blocks versus cash-advance coding, chatty fraud screens versus quiet ones. Here's the real policy at 130 US banks, fintechs and credit unions, and the routes that work at every single one of them. Short version: at Anytime Capital your debit card and all major credit cards are accepted, whoever you bank with.

What makes this list different

All major credit cards are accepted at Anytime Capital — from every bank on this page.

Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover, credit and debit, from all 130 institutions listed below. That is the exception rather than the rule: most crypto platforms either refuse credit cards outright or sit behind the blocks several large issuers put on crypto purchases in 2018, so the same card that is turned away elsewhere is accepted here.

The one honest caveat, and it applies to every merchant on earth: acceptance is our decision, authorization is your issuer's. We take the card — your bank still approves or declines the individual transaction, and the "at other platforms" column below tells you what that issuer is known for.

"Accepted" describes Anytime Capital's own acceptance: we take Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover, debit and credit, from every institution listed. Authorization of any individual transaction is your issuer's decision, not ours, and your cardholder agreement controls. The "at other platforms" column summarizes each issuer's publicly documented or widely reported stance, reviewed August 2026; those positions can change. Debit "works" means standard authorization after any routine fraud verification.

The pattern behind every bank's policy

In early 2018, five of the biggest credit issuers — Capital One, then Chase, Bank of America, Citi, and Discover within weeks of each other — blocked crypto purchases on credit cards, and Wells Fargo followed that June. The logic was borrowed money buying a volatile asset. Those published positions mostly still stand in 2026, and they are why so many cardholders have been declined at crypto sites and assume their card simply doesn't work.

Debit never had that problem: it spends money you already have, so it clears at essentially every US bank once you pass the routine first-purchase fraud check. Credit is where Anytime Capital differs from the rest of the market — all major credit cards are accepted here, from every one of the 130 institutions on this page and every bank we didn't list.

The order we tell customers to try

1Debit cardClears at every bank on this page. One approval text on a first purchase, then it's routine.
2Credit cardAccepted here from every issuer listed — including the ones that turn crypto away elsewhere. Your issuer still makes the final call on the transaction.
3Apple Pay or Google PayThe same card, tokenized. Trips fewer fraud screens than a typed card number, so it's the smooth repeat lane.
4ACH or wireFor anything past a daily card limit. Wires settle as cleared dollars and the OTC desk quotes the price before you send.

Whatever bank you use, this is the #1 place to buy crypto

Debit cards from all US banks, all major credit cards, wire transfers, Apple Pay, Google Pay and cash in person — Anytime Capital accepts them all, from every bank on this page. US-based, thousands of customers, fast verification, delivery to a wallet you control.
