We created the LibertyX mobile app to make your bitcoin purchasing experience as simple and quick as possible. Our app is free to download and is available on both iOS and Android platforms. You can also search locations on our website, though we recommend our app for best experience.

What is the price of bitcoin? Do I need to buy a whole bitcoin?
You can find the real-time price of bitcoin at the top of every page on the LibertyX website or in LibertyX app menu bar. This live ticker updates every 30 seconds. With LibertyX you can buy as little as $5 if purchasing from an ATM, cash kiosk, or independent retailer cashier and $20 if purchase from a chain retailer cashier (e.g. CVS or Rite Aid).
With the increasing price of bitcoin, we find that most people don’t want to buy 1 whole bitcoin at once. Rather, it is a goal to slowly buy fractions of a bitcoin over time with the eventual goal of owning a full bitcoin.
To calculate how much bitcoin you are buying simply divide your purchase amount by the current bitcoin price. The LibertyX app does this automatically for you during a purchase transaction. This calculation is also displayed on all receipts which outlines the purchase bitcoin rate and any fees charged.
