Fee credits are used to offset trading fees for eligible Spot and Derivatives instruments on the Crypto.com Exchange. They are non-transferable to third parties, non-exchangeable, and cannot be withdrawn, redeemed or converted to fiat currency or virtual assets. Fee credits have no cash or monetary value outside of this purpose.

Fee credits are distributed to users following certain events, such as trading competitions and referrals. They are credited to your Master account and can be transferred to your Sub-accounts. Fee credits cannot be transferred to other users or accounts outside your own Master or Sub-account on the Exchange.

Yes, the expiry of fee credits is shown on the UI in your preferred timezone, unless otherwise specified in UTC.

For the instrument name in the API, all fee credit instruments have a prefix of 'fee-credit-' followed by the expiry date in YYYYMMDD format. For example, 'fee-credit-20251201' indicates that the fee credit expires on December 1, 2025, at 23:59 UTC

Once expired, fee credits are no longer usable.

Fee credits are automatically applied to cover your trading fees. No opt-in is required.

Example:
