Yes! LocalBitcoins is a highly regarded international company that has been one of the premier cryptocurrency exchanges since its 2012 founding in Helsinki, Finland. The company connects BTC buyers with local sellers, and it protects both parties by putting the BTC into an escrow account for the duration of the transaction. For example, if a buyer’s transfer fails to clear, LocalBitcoins releases the BTC back to the seller. Similarly, once a Zelle transfer goes through, the BTC is released to the buyer. Sellers are not able to abscond with your money, making the site one of the safest possible ways to buy BTC.
