Moving from Bitstamp to Robinhood

Starting February 1, 2027, you'll no longer be able to open new positions in your Bitstamp by Robinhood account. You'll still be able to view, sell, and withdraw your crypto. Migrating before then lets you continue trading using the Robinhood app (subject to onboarding verification). After the move, you’ll be able to manage your crypto all in one place, and discover new ways to trade and invest. Learn more about the latest products and services on Robinhood.

Moving from Bitstamp

To provide you with a seamless trading experience, we’re offering Bitstamp by Robinhood customers the option to transfer all US dollars (USD) and supported crypto from Bitstamp to Robinhood with no fees.

  • Transfers usually complete in under 5 minutes
  • Assets are available to trade or withdraw as soon as the transfer is complete
  • Your Bitstamp account is locked from all activity during the transfer
  • We're working to align the assets available on Bitstamp by Robinhood and Robinhood Crypto so both platforms offer the same coins. Starting February 1, 2027, you'll no longer be able to deposit or buy in your Bitstamp by Robinhood account, but you can still sell or withdraw any assets that aren't supported on Robinhood.
  • If you hold multiple sub-accounts, we’ll automatically consolidate them into a single balance for transfer. After moving, you can set up multiple investing accounts on Robinhood to separate long-term holdings from active trading.
  • You’ll review all assets and balances before you begin
  • Any pending orders will be canceled and amounts will be included in your balances
  • This is a one-time transfer offer. All eligible assets have to be transferred together at the same time. You can’t select specific assets.
  • You may receive reminder emails to transfer.

I live in a location Robinhood doesn't support, what should I do?

You won't be able to move your account. Before February 1, 2027, log in to Bitstamp by Robinhood to transfer your crypto to an external wallet or withdraw your cash balance, since your account will move to close-only (PCO) mode on that date.

My account shows a restriction, can I still migrate?

You may be conditionally eligible, depending on the restriction. Contact Bitstamp Support to resolve the restriction on your profile; once it's lifted, you can complete your migration ahead of the February 1, 2027 deadline.
