CryptoallertHow to set a price alert on Bitvavo
Want to know when a coin hits a certain price without checking the chart all day? The Bitvavo app has a simple price alert for that. Here’s how to set it up, what it can and can’t do, and when Cryptoallert is more practical.
Setting a price alert in the Bitvavo app
Price alerts are only available in the Bitvavo app, not on the website. To set one:
- Open the app and go to the Assets screen.
- Choose the coin you want an alert for.
- Tap the three dots in the top-right corner and choose the option to set a price alert.
- Enter the price in euros and confirm.
Things to keep in mind
A Bitvavo price alert is one-time only: once the price is reached you get a notification and the alert disappears from your list. For another notification, you set a new one.
You set a fixed euro price. Alerts for fast moves (for example 3% within 5 minutes) aren’t included. You manage and delete alerts via the same three dots, under "Manage all price alerts".
Price alerts with Cryptoallert
Cryptoallert follows every coin on Bitvavo, Kraken and Coinbase live. You set a price alert ("BTC above €100,000" or "XRP below €2") and get notified on your phone, in your dashboard and, if you like, via Telegram. A triggered alert stays in your list, so you can switch it back on with one click.
You also get alerts for fast moves: you choose the percentage and time window, such as "rises 3% within 5 minutes".

Frequently asked questions
Can I set a price alert on the Bitvavo website?
No. According to Bitvavo, price alerts are only available in the app.
Does a Bitvavo price alert stay active after it triggers?
No, it’s one-time and disappears from your list. You set it again for another notification.
Can I get an alert when a coin rises fast?
Not with Bitvavo’s price alert. With Cryptoallert you set your own rule, for example "rises 3% within 5 minutes", and get notified within seconds.
Does Cryptoallert buy or sell for me?
No. Cryptoallert only sends alerts and gives no investment advice. You buy and sell yourself on your own exchange account.
Not investment advice. Information about Bitvavo, Kraken and Coinbase is based on their own help pages (November 2026); their apps may have changed since.
