Discover the simplicity of paying off car debt with digital currency in our brief guide to BitPay Bill Pay.
How to pay for a car loan with cryptocurrency
Setting up to pay for your car loan with cryptocurrency is quick and simple, and it only takes a few steps to get started.
Step 1: Download the BitPay app and set up your wallet
Download our free app for Android and iOS devices. BitPay wallet is self-managed. This means that only you control your money. You can easily create a wallet to pay off your car loan or import wallets/keys generated from other popular self-custodial wallet applications such as Metamask, Exodus Trust Wallet, and Coinbase Wallet. Alternatively, you can make your car payment from your browser on the BitPay website. Log in to your BitPay account and navigate to the Bill Pay tab within your personal dashboard.
Step 2: Link your account
In the BitPay app, tap the ‘Payments’ tab and then tap ‘Bill Payment’. If you are a new BitPay user, you will be asked to provide basic KYC information. Your information will be used to link your car loan account to your cryptocurrency wallet.
Step 3: Pay your car loan with your favorite cryptocurrency
Once your car loan is connected, the provider, maturity date, balance and more details will appear in the app. Select your car loan, tap ‘Pay Bill’ and enter the amount you want to pay. Then select your desired cryptocurrency and confirm payment. It’s that easy.
To get started, download the app or connect to the web.

Different ways to use the BitPay Wallet app
BitPay Wallet is the only cryptocurrency app you need to buy, store, spend and exchange your digital portfolio.
Buy cryptocurrency at low prices
If you want to save money, it’s best to shop around for the best price possible when purchasing cryptocurrency, but doing so for each purchase takes time and effort. With an extensive partner network, BitPay works to ensure you always get the best price. By using the “Best Offers” feature, accessible through the website or the BitPay Wallet app, you will receive a variety of offers without any hidden fees or excessive markups. All you have to do is choose the offer that looks best. You will then be taken to one of our trusted partner sites to complete your transaction.
Self-managed storage
BitPay wallets are self-managed, meaning no one but you has access to your private keys or the crypto assets they protect. For cryptocurrency users who prioritize wallet security, self-storage is the preferred solution.

Whether you want to pay directly with cryptocurrency at your favorite retailer, pay with cryptocurrency on a car loan or other bill, or buy gift cards with cryptocurrency, BitPay Wallet has it all covered. Even if you are not a BitPay Wallet user, you can purchase cryptocurrency through the BitPay website and send it to your self-custodial wallet.
exchange
If you want to participate in a blockchain project or a cryptocurrency community of interest, you will likely need a small amount of that ecosystem’s native cryptocurrency tokens. For example, if you want to dip your toes into the passive income-generating possibilities accessible through the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem, you’ll need to hold some Ethereum or another compatible cryptocurrency. Maybe you’re interested in joining a more niche community powered by smaller, less well-known crypto tokens. In the past, you had to exchange fiat currency for popular coins like Bitcoin and then exchange them for smaller tokens. However, within the BitPay app, you can instantly exchange almost any cryptocurrency for another cryptocurrency using hundreds of exchange pairs.
