River

River is a Bitcoin-only broker that sells and buys BTC for individuals, companies and private clients.

What it offers Customers can make one-off or recurring purchases, hold bitcoin and send it onward. Exchange runs in both directions, fiat to BTC and BTC to fiat. The company keeps the exchange function separate from its additional banking and yield products, so a client who only wants to trade does not need the rest of the range. Bitcoin is the only asset listed.

Clients and conditions The service is aimed at retail users as well as business and private-client accounts. KYC and AML requirements, legal entities, and regulatory status are defined separately for each legal entity and market, so what applies to a given customer depends on the entity that serves them and the country of onboarding.

Practical notes River suits those who want a focused BTC-only venue rather than a multi-asset exchange. Fees, limits and settlement times are not described in the information provided, so they should be confirmed with the company before a larger purchase.
