In short: the difference
How Gate differs from Crypto.com
First in the pair, Gate, is an exchange with thousands of pairs. On the market since 2013, jurisdiction: Panama, its own GT token.
Second in the pair, Crypto.com, is an exchange that covers several jobs at once. On the market since 2016, jurisdiction: Singapore, its own CRO token.
What Gate gives you
Compared with an ecosystem, Gate leans on its own strengths: Running since 2013 and holding first place in our coverage for USDT withdrawal networks — nobody else offers as many. Spot across two thousand pairs, a thousand perpetual contracts. The set includes P2P, savings and staking, Startup for new coins, copy trading, bots and its own GT token that cuts the fee.
Where Gate is strong
more USDT withdrawal networks than any other venue we cover, 2000 spot pairs, running since 2013.
What Crypto.com gives you
Early listings are not the only argument; Crypto.com answers with its own: An international venue with licences in several jurisdictions, a card programme and an app used by tens of millions. What it quotes against first is the dollar rather than USDT: USDT pairs number a little over a hundred, but they are liquid coins with a dense book. Derivatives are here too — four hundred perpetual contracts; funding comes one contract per request, yet accrual is hourly and a dedicated walker keeps pace.
Where Crypto.com is strong
a dense book on the major pairs, licences and regulation, the CRO token for discounts.
What decides it
Fees, withdrawals and limits: where the gap shows
- Age. Gate has run since 2013, Crypto.com since 2016 — a gap of 3 years. It guarantees nothing on its own, but the older venue has been through more market cycles.
- Jurisdiction. Gate sits in Panama, Crypto.com in Singapore. It shapes both the checks you pass and what the venue has to disclose.
- Native tokens. Gate has GT, Crypto.com has CRO: holders usually get fee discounts and access to launches.
- Strengths side by side. Gate: more USDT withdrawal networks than any other venue we cover, 2000 spot pairs, running since 2013; Crypto.com: a dense book on the major pairs, licences and regulation, the CRO token for discounts.
- Which job. Gate is for anyone who values freedom of choice when moving coins between chains, while Crypto.com is as a price reference and a funding venue.
- Worth remembering. Gate: the interface is dense with sections: finding the right one takes a while. Crypto.com: only a hundred-odd USDT pairs: most trading is against the actual dollar.

What people ask most
Questions about Gate
Gate: What is the minimum order on Gate? Each pair has its own: the directory at api.gateio.ws/api/v4/spot/currency_pairs returns the minimum base quantity and the minimum notional in the quote currency. The ETH_USDT example gives 0.001 ETH and 1 USDT.
Gate: What is the maximum leverage on Gate? There is no single figure: it is set per contract by the leverage_max field in the directory at api.gateio.ws/api/v4/futures/usdt/contracts. As the position grows the available leverage falls under the risk limits.
Gate: How does the European version of Gate differ? In its fee grid. The European table reaches a zero maker fee at the tenth tier, while the global one only does so at the fifteenth. The other steps match.
Questions about Crypto.com
Crypto.com: Can the withdrawal fee be paid in CRO? No. The withdrawal fee is taken in the asset you are withdrawing and cannot be swapped for CRO. The venue charges no fee of its own on crypto deposits.
Crypto.com: What does withdrawing dollars cost? Up to a million dollars of net withdrawals over a rolling thirty days is free; above that, 0.05% of the excess. Net volume is withdrawals minus dollar deposits and net OTC inflows; crypto deposits do not reduce it.
Both at once
When it makes sense to keep accounts on both Gate and Crypto.com
Nothing stops you from opening an account on both: it is free, and a pair of venues almost always beats any single one on price. A rare coin is bought where it exists and moved to the ecosystem — easier to hold, stake or sell into a deeper book there.
