I tried it, and found it quite disappointing. They got a commission higher than expected (2.26€), and — probably due to the low volume of exchanges — the bitcoin prices are much higher then on Mt.Gox.

My fees for a SEPA deposit was 1.20€ today while still being advertised as 1.23€ on their website — also bitcoin prices were about 0.30 lower today then on Mt.Gox but are now just 0.03 lower.

This question is out of date, and neither the question nor the purported answers specify what currency is to be transferred or traded. The advice given in the answers here is dangerously out of date. Some of the exchanges do not exist anymore. Others still have websites, but they are not active. If EUR is to be transferred, one can consider Bitstamp or BTC-E. However, they will convert to USD. Mt. Gox in my opinion is unusable. Again, without further info on what you are trying to do, it is impossible to answer your question, and the answers here do not do it either.

# Is there a bitcoin exchange accepting SEPA transfers?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2011-11-10)

Since mt.gox [had to close](https://mtgox.com/press_release_20111021.html) its european office, is there any other exchange accepting SEPA transfers?

Sending a wire to the HK office costs much more than a SEPA transfer to me, and I'd like to avoid that extra expense if possible.

You could use [Intersango](https://intersango.com)

It's a well-trusted exchange that operates within the Eurozone (and in the UK). You see their [current fee structure](https://intersango.com/fees.php) provides SEPA transfer:

```

GBP (domestic)      Free                Free
