Who’s recognised us

Focused on Bitcoin and flexibility

More payment option flexibility

Amber offers a broad amount of funding options to help get you started, while Coinbase can currently only be funded via debit card.

Clear focus

Coinbase lets you purchase and trade a wide range of crypto currencies, giving you a broad range of choices.

Bitcoin first

Rather than gambling, Amber’s focus is purely on investing. With a focus on Bitcoin, Amber is able to deliver a much more refined experience for users.

Your Bitcoin, your way

Customer oriented

Without direct access to customer support, Coinbase can leave your issues feeling ignored. Amber delivers a 1-on-1 customer support agent within the app to help you resolve any issues you may be experiencing.

One free Bitcoin transfer per week

Amber won't charge if you transfer Bitcoin from Amber to an external wallet.

Amber is not an exchange where "Not your keys, not your fees." exists.

“Amber is the easiest way to start or continue along your Bitcoin-saving journey. A focused Bitcoin-only product with no distractions, competitive rates and unique functionality - sure to impress both novices and veterans alike”

Hass McCookCivil Engineer, Speaker, early Bitcoin adopter

“Amber is hands-down my favorite app for automating my Bitcoin purchases. I have been using it for over a year and cannot recommend Ambers simplicity and usefulness enough”

Torsten HoffmanAward-winning producer #CryptopiaFilm

“Amber is a set and forget process. The interface is simple and it is a terrific way to consistently engage with bitcoin in a low friction way”

Daniel PickeringChief Investment Officer, ListedReserve

“The Amber app makes it so simple to buy Bitcoin - set and forget - your slice of the world's scarcest and best performing asset!”
