New features have been introduced by Bittrex global on its platform, including support for credit card, upgrades for mobile app and a referral program.
Support for credit card will be provided to clients of Bittrex Global in the UK, France, Germany and Netherlands.
The exchange aims to unveil credit card support for all global users in the months ahead.
In the days to come, users of Bittrex Global’s mobile app will be able to place conditional trade orders, for e.g. stop-limit orders for risk handling.
In spite of mentioning that the company will run a referral program that will share a portion of trading fees, further details such as commission structure is yet to be revealed.
Stephen Stonber, Bittrex Global’s COO, hinted that the cryptocurrency exchange intends to roll out additional fresh features in forthcoming months:
“We are continually working on ways to provide a better experience for users. An enhanced mobile trading experience is one of our top priorities and creating this new credit card gateway is an important way of lowering the barriers to digital asset trading for new and existing customers alike. These features are the first of many we have planned that will underline Bittrex Global’s ambition to provide the best and most secure platform for digital trading.”
