Paypal-owned payments platform Venmo has rolled out a feature that would allow holders of its credit cards to automatically buy cryptocurrencies with the cashback earned on their purchases.

Cardholders will be able to buy Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash through the `Cash Back to Crypto` feature and will not be charged fees for the transaction, Venmo said in a statement. The users can at any time hold or sell such assets within the Venmo app and change their choice of cryptocurrency.
