Littlebit is a new solution that allows micro-savings in Bitcoin from everyday transactions with Visa and Mastercard. Developed by BitDCA, the application will be launched in the coming weeks.
Summary
Littlebit and micro-savings in Bitcoin: the integration of Visa and Mastercard
BitDCA, a company that provides infrastructure services for Web3 components, has launched Littlebit, a new solution dedicated to micro-saving in Bitcoin.
“Finally, it is official. The world will soon know us as: Littlebit, powered by BitDCA. In a few weeks, the Littlebit app will go live: it will transform daily expenses into automatic savings in Bitcoin.”
In practice, with Littlebit, users will be able to save Bitcoin by setting aside a small extra every time they make payments with their Visa or Mastercard.
In fact, the announcement of the launch of Littlebit considers precisely the integration of the two payment circuits Visa and Mastercard.
The application automatically converts a portion of each transaction into Bitcoin without having to switch from one application to another, allowing users to monitor their savings in real time.
Littlebit is a new way to save Bitcoin using Visa and Mastercard cards
Littlebit then proceeds to purchase BTC on behalf of the user, taking a small percentage from each transaction made by him with Visa and Mastercard.
In general, all converted amounts will be stored on Bitstamp, one of the longest-standing centralized exchanges, serving over 4 million customers in 100 countries.
If users prefer to avoid the complexities of crypto-exchanges, BitDCA will securely store their savings in Bitcoin in a digital wallet assigned to each user.
Looking at the official website of the company BitDCA, behind the new Littlebit, here is how they describe who they are and their mission:
“We believe in simplicity. That’s why we thought about how to make investments in cryptocurrencies an effortless daily routine. LITTLEBIT, our micro-savings application, automatically converts a small percentage of every card payment into Bitcoin. Thanks to open banking APIs and the proven strategy of dollar-cost averaging (DCA), LITTLEBIT makes saving in Bitcoin a simple operation. Get ready, because we are doing it. Launch in the second quarter of 2025 on iOS and Android.”
The Fold card that pays back in BTC
Also in this month of February, Visa made headlines in the crypto world for the launch of the new Fold card that rewards cashback in BTC.
In practice, Visa and Fold have expanded their partnership to bring innovative Bitcoin (BTC) reward card programs to the market.
In this way, consumers will be able to earn even more BTC without issues, through daily transactions.
The broader agreement includes Fold’s flagship debit card program and upcoming credit card products, leveraging shared services and Visa incentives to enhance the rewards offerings.
