What BitPay is

BitPay operates a crypto wallet and payment application that lets customers buy, store, and use digital assets. The app supports buying and swapping cryptocurrencies across multiple payment options, managing wallets across several blockchain networks, and spending crypto on gift cards or bill payments such as credit cards and mortgages.

Assets in the BitPay wallet are held in a self-custody model, meaning customers control their own wallet. BitPay also provides payment processing services through BitPay Inc. and BitPay B.V., and is licensed by the New York State Department of Financial Services to engage in Virtual Currency Business Activity.
