Binance P2P: Buy Bitcoin in Ghana with Mobile Money

We have launched support for Mobile Money payments for GHS peer-to-peer (P2P) trading. Starting today, you can buy Bitcoin in Ghana through Binance P2P and pay using Mobile Money, the leading payments service used in the country. Asides from BTC, you can also buy Ethereum, USDT, BNB, BUSD, and EOS at zero transaction fees.

With this launch, it’s now more convenient for you to take advantage of zero fees on Binance P2P. This also unlocks more opportunities to buy and sell Bitcoin in Ghana, especially compared to the prevailing profit margins of between 1%-3% for P2P trading in Africa. 

In June 2020, we added Ghanian Cedis (GHS) on the Binance P2P platform, where users can post their trade ads to buy and sell cryptocurrencies or trade directly with other users. With Mobile Money’s integration, you can smoothly exchange money for crypto in your P2P trades, safeguarded by our escrow service.
