A market order buys Bitcoin immediately at the best available price on the order book. You specify how much THB you want to spend, and the order fills instantly.
Pros: Fast, guaranteed execution. Cons: The exact price may differ slightly from what you see (slippage), especially for larger amounts.A limit order lets you set a target price. Your order only executes if Bitcoin's price reaches your specified level.
Pros: You control the exact price you pay. Cons: The order may not fill if the price never reaches your target. Example: If Bitcoin is trading at 1,200,000 THB and you want to buy at 1,180,000 THB, you place a limit buy at 1,180,000. The order waits until the market reaches that price.Key Takeaway: Use a market order for immediate conversion of THB to Bitcoin. Use a limit order if you want to buy at a specific price and are willing to wait.

In the order form:
- THB amount (e.g., 10,000 THB) — the platform calculates how much BTC you will receive.
- BTC amount (e.g., 0.005 BTC) — the platform calculates the THB cost.
For market orders, execution is nearly instant. For limit orders, the order sits on the book until the price condition is met.

Navigate to your Order History or Transaction History to see:
Your BTC balance should update immediately in your Wallet or Portfolio section. If you placed a limit order that hasn't filled yet, it will appear in your Open Orders tab.

Bitazza charges a percentage-based fee on each trade. Typical rates for Thai exchanges:
On a 10,000 THB market order at 0.25%, you would pay approximately 25 THB in trading fees.
The spread is the difference between the best buy price and best sell price on the order book. This is not a fee charged by Bitazza — it is a natural market cost. Tighter spreads (common during high-volume periods) mean less cost to you.
If you transfer your Bitcoin to an external wallet after purchase, a network fee applies. Bitcoin network fees vary based on blockchain congestion. Check the current withdrawal fee on Bitazza before initiating a transfer.
According to CoinGecko's exchange rankings, Thai SEC-regulated exchanges generally charge fees in line with global averages. The regulatory compliance overhead is reflected in the fee structure but also provides consumer protections that unregulated platforms lack.
Key Takeaway: Converting 10,000 THB to Bitcoin on Bitazza costs approximately 25 THB in trading fees (at 0.25%). Spread and withdrawal fees are additional costs to consider.

Instead of converting a large sum of THB to Bitcoin at once, DCA involves buying a fixed THB amount at regular intervals (weekly, biweekly, or monthly). This strategy averages out your purchase price over time and reduces the risk of buying at a local peak.
Example: Converting 5,000 THB to Bitcoin every Monday, regardless of price. Over months, your average cost reflects the overall trend rather than a single entry point.Use Bitazza's price alert features (or third-party tools like CoinGecko alerts) to get notified when BTC/THB reaches a price level you are interested in. This removes the need to constantly monitor charts.
The Thailand Revenue Department requires reporting of crypto gains. Keep a record of every THB to Bitcoin conversion, including date, amount, price, and fees. Bitazza's transaction history can serve as your primary record, but maintaining your own spreadsheet is recommended.

Keep your Bitcoin on Bitazza for convenient access or transfer to a personal wallet for long-term storage. Bitcoin's role as a store of value within the decentralized monetary ecosystem makes it the most commonly held digital asset. According to Chainalysis on-chain data, a significant percentage of Bitcoin supply has not moved in over a year, indicating widespread long-term holding behavior.
For full control over your Bitcoin, withdraw to a hardware wallet (Ledger, Trezor) or a reputable software wallet. This removes exchange counterparty risk but means you are fully responsible for your private keys.
The Freedom Card allows you to spend crypto for everyday purchases, bridging the decentralized monetary ecosystem with daily commerce. This transforms your Bitcoin from a held asset into usable currency.
Your THB to Bitcoin conversion is the entry point to a wider decentralized monetary ecosystem. Through the Freedom World platform, you can explore additional financial tools, staking options, and ways to participate in decentralized finance — all built on the same regulated foundation.
Key Takeaway: After converting THB to Bitcoin, your options include holding long-term, transferring to a personal wallet, spending via the Freedom Card, or exploring broader tools in the decentralized monetary ecosystem through Freedom World.
