Disclaimer
Crypto assets are not legal tender and may be used to settle a payment only if the person receiving the payment agrees.
The price of crypto assets may fluctuate due to changes in the balance of supply and demand and other factors, which may result in losses.
Fees and other charges may apply to crypto asset and related transactions. For details on fees and other charges, see “Fees and Taxes” on our website.
To engage in over-the-counter crypto asset derivative transactions, you must provide a margin deposit. For details on the required margin deposit, its calculation method, the applicable margin rate, and other margin-related information, see “What is bitFlyer Crypto CFD?” on our website.
Over-the-counter crypto asset derivative transactions let you trade amounts exceeding your margin deposit with a small amount of funds. However, rapid price fluctuations of crypto assets and other factors may cause losses exceeding your margin deposit within a short period.
In over-the-counter crypto asset derivative transactions, factors such as sudden price movements or the execution of a loss-cut may result in a trade being executed at a price or under conditions different from those you anticipated at the time of your order, or may result in a trade not being executed at all.
Before trading, be sure to thoroughly review our pre-contract disclosure documents and related materials.

I’ve been using bitFlyer for some time. They focus on offering the things that investors really need: Access to the large coins (bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin etc), free and instant bank transfers via ACH, a user friendly interface, and robust security. Their trading fees are pretty solid compred to other exchanges as well.It took me a while to find a legit exchange with so many scams out there. They’re licensed almost everywhere in the US including new york, so that was a good sign. No major complaints so far. Looking forward to more features
Terrible service, terrible interface

I’ve uploaded all my relevant identification documents multiple times - drivers license, resident card - and bitFlyer continues to deny me access to buy/sell without any explanation as to why. My address and all my personal information match my IDs, so no reason to reject. Furthermore, I’ve been asked to withdraw all my funds as account will be closed, however, I’m still being assessed a transaction fee (should be waived in my opinion). The fee makes it impossible to withdraw as it’s below the limit. If I’m being forced to withdraw out my balance, however small it is, I should be allowed to withdraw without restrictions. The platform and app are not user/gaijin friendly and the support/customer service is of the poorest quality I’ve ever experienced in Japan. They can keep the measly ¥4000. I will make sure to tell anyone who ask to avoid BitFlyer at all cost. There are plenty of better services out there.
Great platform solid security

I’ve been using bitFlyer for close to 6 months now. I like their security. I travel a lot. While traveling they contacted me to make sure my login wasn’t compromised because of the different IP addresses I’m using in different States. I like that they are concerned about the safety of their customers and their fees are reasonable compared to other platforms and transfers are usually handled very quickly. This is a good secure platform very useful for investors.
New update!

I made a review of this app a few months back suggesting a few changes in their UI, after the most recent update, I have to say you got it!The app has not disappointed and I’m happy to see an improvement in the experience I have with it. Coins are easier to track, I can hide my holdings in case someone around me wants to peep in, and the overall feeling of it is much better.Great improvement!
