Frequently asked questions
Why am I seeing this fee?
We're trying something new and offering a different crypto pricing model to a small group of clients. If you're seeing this rate, it means you've been included in that group. No action is needed — the fee is automatically applied when you trade.
What's a crypto swap?
A crypto swap allows you to directly exchange one cryptocurrency for the equivalent value of another without first converting to cash. That means you only have to place one trade (swap) instead of two (sell then buy). This provides a more streamlined trading experience with competitive fees. Learn more.
Can I make crypto swaps on desktop?
Not yet — swaps are currently mobile-only, but we're working on expanding.
How long will this pricing last?
This pricing structure may change in the future. If anything changes, we will notify you in advance.
