Garanti BBVA Kripto has launched its new OTC platform, developed for customers who prefer to buy and sell high-volume crypto assets quickly and easily. Offering a fully digital, self-service experience, Garanti BBVA Kripto OTC allows users to trade 24/7 at the price they see instantly on screen, without having to wait for a price quote.
Continuing to offer secure and innovative solutions in the crypto asset ecosystem, Garanti BBVA Kripto has rolled out its new OTC (Over-the-Counter) platform, which allows high-volume transactions to be carried out securely, independent of the order book.
Offered in addition to the existing “Simple Buy-Sell” and “Advanced Buy-Sell” features in the Garanti BBVA Kripto mobile app, the OTC trading model allows investors to easily carry out large-value transactions directly through the digital platform.
Zero Commission and Trading at Real-Time Prices
Designed for high-volume traders, the Garanti BBVA Kripto OTC trading model offers a fully digital, self-service experience, 24/7 access, real-time price display, and instant execution. Prices are published on the platform in real time, and users can complete transactions directly at the price they see. By allowing transactions to take place without entering the order book, the model provides a more controlled trading experience for high-value transactions and offers a structure that eliminates the risk of price slippage.
Onur Güven: “High-volume trading is now as easy as a standard buy-sell transaction”
Garanti BBVA Kripto CEO Onur Güven commented on the new Garanti BBVA Kripto OTC Platform, saying:
“In crypto asset markets, high-volume transactions often turn into a time-consuming or negative experience due to phone calls, messaging, waiting for price quotes, and manual approval processes. We aimed to digitize this experience end-to-end and offer our customers a faster, easier, and more accessible trading model. With our new OTC service, our users can trade 24/7 at the prices they see instantly on the platform. This allows us to provide a more controlled, practical, and uninterrupted experience for high-volume transactions, independent of the order book. While our strong technological infrastructure makes the OTC experience as easy as standard buy-sell transactions, we continue to offer user-focused and innovative solutions in the crypto asset ecosystem.”
