This guide was made as an attempt to garner attention from such questions that get regularly asked on some of our support venues.

Bisq is a DEX (decentralized exchange), it doesn't directly deal with fiat, so it doesn't have builtin fiat accounts, nor credit card payment endpoints; it only manages a BTC wallet (and a special [[BSQ]] wallet).

To trade, you need to find another user who agrees with you (selling BTC while you want to buy, or buying BTC while you want to sell, using same currency and same [[Payment_methods|payment method]]); Bisq will manage the Bitcoin side of the transaction with its battle-tested escrow, and trading peers will manage the fiat/altcoin side on their end, by dealing directly between themselves.

=== There might be a way to buy BTC with credit card on Bisq though ===

Technically, you could say you can buy BTC with your credit card on Bisq, even if that's a little more convoluted than what you normally see on e-commerce websites: you would need to setup a payment method that supports receiving deposits from cards, like [[Revolut]], [[TransferWise|Wise]] (ex TransferWise), [[Amazon_eGift_card|Amazon eGift card]] to say a few, send money from your credit card to those accounts, and then make, or take, an offer that uses one of those methods.
