Auto Coin Cars

What Auto Coin Cars does

Auto Coin Cars, operating under the consumer brand CryptoAutos, is a London-headquartered cryptocurrency-enabled automotive marketplace that connects car buyers paying with digital assets to a network of more than 600 dealer partners across the UK and Europe. The platform enables browsing and purchase of luxury and premium vehicles — including Aston Martin, Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren, Mercedes-Benz, and Land Rover — as well as motorcycles, with prices displayed in Bitcoin (BTC) and Toncoin (TON) alongside GBP and USD equivalents updated in real time.

The legal entity is DigiBlaze UAB, a Lithuanian private limited company (Uždaroji akcinė bendrovė) operating under Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) cryptocurrency services registration number 306351393; the entity is not authorized by the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to communicate financial promotions in the UK. Founded in 2018, the company has disclosed a single funding event of $55,479 in September 2019, suggesting a bootstrapped operating model with minimal external capital, consistent with its headcount band of 11–50 employees.

The go-to-market motion is a two-sided marketplace: buyers find inventory through the platform and complete transactions via cryptocurrency without converting to fiat, while dealerships — led by named partners such as Blackstone Motors and Halfscale — gain access to a niche, crypto-wealthy buyer demographic and accept crypto payments through CryptoAutos infrastructure. Ancillary services have been layered on, including a tailored insurance partnership with Howden specifically for crypto car buyers. The revenue model is inferred to be marketplace commission or transaction facilitation fees; no subscription pricing, platform fees, or per-transaction commission rates are publicly disclosed. The company pursues a digital-first marketing approach via blog content, Telegram, and X (Twitter) for top-of-funnel awareness, with customer testimonials serving as mid-funnel conversion evidence.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• NOWPayments: Crypto payment gateway offering wide coin coverage and POS tools; competes with CryptoAutos on the underlying rails for high-ticket crypto merchant transactions.
• BitPay: Large crypto payment processor offering checkout APIs and merchant services; represents a credible competing infrastructure layer that dealers could adopt directly.
• Cars.com: Major US car marketplace with dealer network and consumer financing capabilities; analogous marketplace model that could integrate crypto rails at scale.
• CoinGate: Crypto payment processor supporting many merchants and a broad set of coins; potential substitute for dealers that prefer an off-the-shelf crypto acceptance solution.
• Auto Trader (UK): Dominant UK car marketplace; if it added a native crypto payment feature it would represent an existential incumbent threat to CryptoAutos's dealer network.
• Coinbase Commerce: Crypto-native payment gateway from Coinbase enabling merchants to accept multiple digital assets; competing infrastructure for any auto dealer handling crypto directly.
• CarGurus: Large international car listing platform; a potential entrant into crypto-enabled transactions that would dwarf CryptoAutos's dealer network.

Emerging players

• Droom: India-based online automotive marketplace with fintech-style transaction services; comparable in digital marketplace model though regionally focused.

Direct peers

• Crypto Emporium: Online luxury goods marketplace accepting cryptocurrency payments across cars, watches, and property — overlapping buyer persona (HNW crypto holders) and similar crypto checkout infrastructure.
• BitCars: European crypto car marketplace that lists vehicles priced in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, directly competing with CryptoAutos in the same buyer/dealer niche.
