Email Providers That Accept Crypto (Monero, Bitcoin) in 2026
Which email providers accept Monero or Bitcoin, directly or through a reseller, based on each provider's own pages read on 14 November 2026.
Paying for email in crypto keeps a card and a billing name out of the picture. But "accepts crypto" covers very different things: some providers take coins directly, some only through gift cards from a reseller, and many do not at all. This list separates them, using the providers' own pages read on 14 November 2026.
Directly accepted
VaelMail: prepaid in Monero, Bitcoin, Litecoin, USDT, USDC and other coins through the payment processor Heleket, or Telegram Stars. No card and no auto-renewal. See pay with Monero.
Proton Mail: its payment page lists Bitcoin for any subscription. Bitcoin is not offered while creating the account; you create a free account first and upgrade in settings. We found no direct Monero option. See VaelMail vs Proton Mail.
Mailfence: its FAQ lists Bitcoin and Litecoin along with cards, PayPal and wire transfer. See VaelMail vs Mailfence.
addy.io: cryptocurrency is accepted for yearly plans, and its vouchers through the reseller ProxyStore accept Monero, Bitcoin, cash and SEPA transfer. addy.io is an alias service that forwards to a mailbox you already have. See VaelMail vs addy.io.
Through a reseller
Tuta: crypto is not accepted directly. Its guide says you can buy Tuta gift cards with Monero, Bitcoin or cash through the reseller Proxystore, and that direct Bitcoin is planned. See VaelMail vs Tuta.
SimpleLogin: Bitcoin and Monero through ProxyStore, with cards and PayPal handled by Paddle. SimpleLogin forwards aliases to another mailbox. See VaelMail vs SimpleLogin.
Not found
We found no crypto option on the pages we read for mailbox.org, Posteo or Fastmail. Posteo and mailbox.org do offer cash payment by post. See VaelMail vs Posteo, VaelMail vs mailbox.org and VaelMail vs Fastmail.
What to check before you pay
Whether the coin is accepted directly or only through a reseller, which adds another company to the payment.
Whether crypto is available at sign-up, for monthly terms, or only for yearly plans.
Whether the ledger is public. Bitcoin and most coins can be traced on their ledger; Monero hides amounts and addresses.
Whether the provider asks for a name, an address or another email address along the way.
A note on privacy
Paying in crypto is not the same as being anonymous. The payment can still go through a third-party processor, and your connection can still reveal your IP address. Match the coin to what you want to hide, and see how to pay for email with Monero for the steps.
Provider pages change, so check each one before you pay. If you notice a change, tell us on the contact page.
