Networks and withdrawal fees

Crypto.com does not disclose its networks and withdrawal fees publicly

That is why there is no live table here. The published tariff names only one network for USDT — ERC20: a 20 USDT minimum and a 10 USDT fee. Check the rest in your exchange account before sending.

About the exchange

What Crypto.com is

Crypto.com has been running since 2016 and grew out of the Monaco app. Today it is one of the most visible venues in the industry: licences in several jurisdictions, a payment card, an app with tens of millions of users and its own CRO token.

The main thing

Dollars, not USDT

The main quote here is a real dollar. There are hundreds of pairs against the dollar and 117 against USDT. Only the USDT pairs appear in our tables: a price in dollars cannot be compared with a price in USDT directly — they are different assets, however close the rate.

BTC / USD

The venue’s main market. It does not reach the scanner — the quote is in dollars.

BTC / USDT

One of the 117 markets against USDT. This is the one compared with other exchanges.

The exchange and the app are different products

Crypto.com Exchange and Crypto.com App have their own fees, minimums, networks and features. Crypto Earn, for one, belongs to the app. Do not carry the terms of one over to the other.

Fees

What a trade costs and what CRO gives you

The retail tariff starts at 0.25% maker and 0.50% taker and falls with 30-day volume. With a balance from 50,000 CRO the maker fee goes to zero on all five tiers, and the taker becomes about an eighth cheaper.

Your rate
A 1,000 USDT trade
Buy and sell

Above the retail grid sits VIP: from $1M volume the maker fee is 0.065%, zero from the second tier, and the taker falls from 0.1% to 0.025%.

The minimum order is $1 of value

That is the order’s value, not a coin count. The exchange rounds the quantity up to the pair’s tick, so on expensive coins the real minimum is higher.

Derivatives have no dollar minimum — the quantity tick applies instead. The CRO perpetual steps in 10 contract units, and the size must divide by it exactly.

The card

The card and the Level Up subscription

The subscription tiers are Basic, Plus, Pro and Private. The old Ruby, Jade, Icy and Obsidian remain in older tables: their terms should not be carried over to today’s tiers.

Automation

Bots and sub-accounts

DCAbuys or sells in equal parts at intervals — the entry price is averaged
Gridbuys below and sells above inside a corridor; once the price leaves it the strategy stalls, which is the ordinary risk
TWAPsplits a large order on a schedule so it does not move the book; it can be cancelled but not edited

Sub-accounts

300for an institutional one
10API calls per second per address

Each has its own balance, positions, results and API keys. Verification and the fee tier are inherited from the main account, sub-account volume counts towards the total, and withdrawals and on-chain deposits go through the main account.

Our sections

Where Crypto.com appears in SpreadRadar

It is there

  • Spot arbitrage — across 117 pairs vs USDT: the book is deep, gaps are rare but real
  • Funding — across 414 contracts; accrual is hourly, the crawler covers them all in a couple of minutes and refreshes the snapshot every 5 minutes
  • A price reference: if Crypto.com differs noticeably from the rest, the gap is worth double-checking

It is not — and why

  • Triangular routes and stablecoins: the venue does not publish the size at the best order
  • Transfers: networks and withdrawal fees are not disclosed publicly
Money

Deposits and withdrawals: crypto, SEPA and dollars by bank

3Withdraw in the same cointhe fee is taken from it, and it cannot be paid in CRO

Withdraw to App moves funds between the exchange and the app internally, with no blockchain transaction. Deposits of EVM tokens through a smart contract are generally not supported — ETH aside.

Withdrawing dollars above a million costs money

From 1 May 2026: the net withdrawal over a rolling 30 days = withdrawals − dollar deposits − net OTC inflows. Up to $1,000,000 it is free, above that 0.05% of the excess. Crypto deposits, USDT and USDC included, do not reduce the amount.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Why does Crypto.com have so few pairs in your scanner?+

The main quote here is a real dollar, not USDT. There are 117 pairs against USDT and those are the ones in the tables: comparing a dollar price with a USDT price directly is not sound.

What does trading on Crypto.com cost?+

The retail tariff is from 0.25% maker and 0.50% taker, falling with volume to 0.08% and 0.18%. With a balance from 50,000 CRO the maker fee goes to zero and the taker is about an eighth cheaper.

Can the withdrawal fee be paid in CRO?+

No. The fee is taken in the coin you withdraw. The venue charges nothing of its own for a crypto deposit.

What is the minimum spot order?+

$1 of order value. The quantity is rounded up to the pair’s tick. Below the minimum you get a BELOW_MIN_ORDER_SIZE error.

How does Crypto.com Exchange differ from the app?+

They are different products: fees, minimums, networks and features do not match. Crypto Earn, for one, belongs to the app.

What does withdrawing dollars cost?+

Up to $1,000,000 of net withdrawals over a rolling 30 days is free, above that 0.05% of the excess. Crypto deposits do not reduce the net amount.

Methodology and principles of analytical processing

Forming and structuring the data

The analytical system brings disparate market information together into a single structure, accounting for the specifics of trading directions and the individual characteristics of each platform. That keeps the presentation consistent and the key parameters comparable.

Criteria for forming the results

Forming the analytical selection takes into account the completeness, availability and reliability of the source information. Parameters that meet the established processing and confirmation criteria are included in the calculations. Insufficiently substantiated values are not used in the final results.

Currency of the analytical information

The information presented is kept current through regular refreshing and reconciliation of the analytical parameters. How often that happens is determined by the nature of each category of data and the way it is processed.
