Go Account Overview

Go Accounts are the entry point to the complete BitGo platform. As qualified custody, multi-asset accounts, they enable you to:

  • Secure and manage fiat and digital assets in one account

  • Trade on the BitGo’s platform while keeping assets in qualified custody

  • Access financing, including borrowing and lending opportunities

  • Settle and execute transfers via Go Network Delivery vs Payment (DvP)

  • Allocate assets to Go Network Off-Exchange Settlement partners for trading, all within qualified custody

Go Accounts offer the same protections as BitGo Custody Wallets, including:

  • Security-first approach: BitGo safeguards your assets as a fiduciary, subject to the highest standards of security and compliance. 

  • Segregated and bankruptcy-remote: Your assets are held in segregated accounts and are never commingled with other client or corporate assets.

  • Insured: Go Accounts are covered by $250M insurance coverage against loss, theft, and misuse when BitGo holds all keys.* 

Go Accounts leverage BitGo’s ledgering technology, allowing transactions to be executed off-chain for enhanced speed, efficiency, and privacy. Transfers from a Go Account to non-Go Accounts (e.g., other BitGo Custody accounts or external, non-BitGo accounts) are processed onchain.

*BitGo refers to one of BitGo’s globally licensed and regulated entities offering qualified custody. Refer here for more information.
