what is

CUSTODIAL


A custodial service means that you do not have full control over your funds. It means that your assets are stored on a form of a 'client wallet' (account) and the company which provides the service, in case of insolvency, may not be able to pay out your holdings.
It can be compared to banks: when you deposit money at any bank (or other financial institution), in practice it means that they take custody of your cash.

REMIBIT

We are Non-custodial!


All the cryptocurrency you accept in your business via RemiBit NEVER passes through our hands (or wallets). From start to finish the transaction is peer to peer, which means it comes from your client's wallet directly to yours, no detours or middlemen. We strictly stick to our philosophy: Your keys, your crypto™!

Once the coins are in your private Non-custodial RemiBit Wallet, nobody but you, or the people you share the access details with, have access to your assets. No banks, no government and no court can touch it.

Conclusion

The custodial wallet is very similar in its ​function​ to the principles of ​a​ bank​, meaning​ you do not fully control your money ​inside of​ it. Yes, the money remains yours, but it is in the hands of another company which carries the features of the above-mentioned risk.

Being a Non-custodial service, RemiBit does not, at any point, have access to your money, therefore you are in complete control.
