About BitBox

Written by the company

BitBox: Simple and secure wallet


At BitBox, we believe that the unique properties of Bitcoin allow decentralized, censorship-resistant, and immutable money. This technological breakthrough will reshape society in unforeseen ways.

Our mission is to empower individuals to participate in the emerging cryptocurrencies ecosystem. We equip users with simple and secure hardware & software products that enable financial sovereignty.

BitBox02: our second-generation hardware wallet

The BitBox02 equips individuals to easily store, protect, and transact cryptocurrencies. Its companion, the BitBoxApp, provides an all-in-one solution to securely manage your digital assets with ease.

Simple and secure, it is a ​great solution for beginners​: the BitBoxApp guides new users through every step and setting up the BitBox02 takes less than two minutes, backup to the microSD card included. The in-app guide answers common questions, while we take care of the security aspect.

The BitBox02 is ​very straightforward to use​. The detailed screen shows all relevant information for easy verification. And there are no clunky buttons: our touch sliders allow intuitive and efficient operations, like confirming a transaction or verifying a receiving address.

It also is a ​great choice for advanced users​: the BitBoxApp offers easy connection to your own Bitcoin full node, provides coin control and a mnemonic seedphrase backup. In combination with the free wallet Electrum, power users have not much left to wish for!

Our ​secure dual-chip architecture​ reflects our values as a Swiss open-source security company: it enables the use of a secure chip for physical device hardening in combination with fully open-source firmware. With its small form factor and no visible screen when powered off, the BitBox02 is a very discreet device. Made in Switzerland, it inherits our deep appreciation of quality and privacy.

BitBox hardware wallets are available since 2016, have been sold in over 100 countries, and every enhancement and security improvement lead to the BitBox02 available today.

Editions: Multi and Bitcoin-only

The BitBox02 comes in two versions: the ​Multi-edition ​supports different cryptocurrencies and tokens and can be used as a second-factor authenticator. The ​Bitcoin-only edition​ features a radically focused firmware: less code means less attack surface, which further improves your security when only storing Bitcoin.

Shift Crypto AG

The company behind BitBox is Shift Crypto AG, a privately held company based in Zurich, Switzerland. Our international team of specialists across engineering, cryptosecurity and Bitcoin core development build the BitBox products and provides consulting services.

Hey Jürgen, there's no reason to apologize. Leaving a review is entirely optional, of course! 🙂

It would be great if you could update your review once you had some time to test the BitBox02! 🙏

Great product

My order was processed quickly and delivery was fast. I'm rather new to Bitcoin and the BitBox is my first hardware wallet, but the instructions were easy to follow and I had no problem setting everything up. Thanks for keeping this simple.

Ease of use and confidence!

Ease of use provides confidence in use! Very easy to use the physical device itself. Transaction verification steps are very clear and straightforward. Back up steps are very clear and straightforward. The app adds to this ease of use. I have connected my box and loaded the app many times. Not once has the box itself or the app failed to load. I am very happy.

Exceptional Security and Usability – BitBox02 Sets the Standard, but Room for iOS Expansion

What made your experience great?

Using the BitBox02 wallet has been an outstanding experience due to its intuitive design and exceptional focus on security. The setup process was incredibly simple, with clear step-by-step instructions that even a beginner could follow. The physical device feels sturdy and well-built, which immediately gives you confidence in its reliability. Additionally, the backup system with the microSD card is a fantastic feature, offering peace of mind in case of any issues.

What is this company doing well?

This company excels in delivering a user-friendly yet highly secure hardware wallet. They strike the perfect balance between ease of use and advanced security features, which is often hard to find in this space. Their commitment to open-source firmware demonstrates a level of transparency and trustworthiness that is crucial for a product handling cryptocurrency. Furthermore, the customer support team is responsive and knowledgeable, ensuring that any questions or concerns are quickly addressed.

What could be improved?

The only thing I feel is currently missing is the availability of an iOS application for iPhone users. This would be a game-changer for many and is something I believe they should add to their roadmap. That said, I have no doubt the company will continue to innovate and address user needs over time.

Wow, thanks for the awesome review! ❤️

We're working on support for iOS, which has been proven difficult due to Apple's restriction of the iPhone's USB interface, but we'll find a solution! 👍

Shipping

I ordered a Bitbox. Before getting the item, I got a 69 USD fee courtesy of UPS including 45 USD broker fee. So my USD 129 Bitbox is now close to USD 200.
Yes Bitbox do mention taxes. In my case about USD 16. All the rest is UPS. So really. at the checkout, you have NO idea what the item will cost you.
BitBox could calculate and DISPLAY that before hand.
Now, I can return the item and receive a refund. I need to pay the UPS USD 69 + Shipping Fees (abot 35 USD) so this option is a joke and as such they offer an option which is really not an option.
I do not know if they do this because they do not care or negligence but it is not trustworthy. If you are going to ship international, then find out how much your customers will need to pay and display it.
This is not a UPS problem. It is a BitBox problem.

Reply from BitBox

We understand your frustration, and we're sorry that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. International shipping can be unpredictable, and unfortunately, some countries impose high and arbitrary import fees.

To clarify: the $16 you mentioned is the regular shipping fee, which is clearly stated at checkout. This is separate from any additional import duties, taxes, or brokerage fees charged by UPS or local customs authorities—costs that we do not control and cannot estimate in advance.

Panama is one of the few destinations where we cannot offer Duties & Taxes Paid (DDP) shipping, which we explicitly mention in our shop. This means that local authorities and couriers may charge extra fees upon delivery, which varies greatly from case to case. While we successfully ship to almost all countries worldwide without issues, some regions—like Panama or parts of South America—sometimes impose extreme import fees, with charges reaching 100% of the product value.

We understand how frustrating this can be, and we truly appreciate your feedback. If you’d like to discuss this further, our support team is happy to assist.

One of the simplest hardware wallet

My questions were answered within 48 hours. That's good.
I find the whole package (BB02, Windows app, Android app) and explanatory tutorial very good and helpful, even if you end up again on an English tutorial, even though you are looking for German tutorials.
