Senior investors unfamiliar with how to buy digital currencies, including Bitcoin, can not easily buy them just through phone orders.
Digital asset management firm Chain Partners said it had opened a telephone order service for senior citizens. Once you go to the site https://coincare.kr/, you can buy Bitcoin just by telephone call or KakaoTalk public messenger.
Once you open a Chain Partners account at the Kakao Talk, you can deposit cash and place orders for Bitcoin. Chain Partners traders will accept orders from 10 a.m. to six p.m. on weekdays.
Order can be confirmed in one hour after placing an order. Service fees are 3 percent, with one-time investment being from one million won to 100 million won.
Coincare will keep Bitcoin on behalf of customers for one year free of charge.
