What trading pairs are available?

Please see below for the list of available trading pairs:

*Certain digital assets may, from time to time, be subject to limited market availability, or other conditions that may affect our ability to source the requested token quantity within standard settlement timeframes. Where we determine that such conditions exist in respect of a trade you have requested, we shall notify you of the anticipated delay and may mutually agree a timeline for settlement of such trade (the "Pre-Funded Settle Later Period").

During the Pre-Funded Settle Later Period, you shall deposit cleared funds into your designated Pre-Funded Settle Later account in an amount equal to or exceeding the full anticipated value of the proposed transaction in a currency denomination determined by Crypto.com (the "Pre-Funded Amount"). The Pre-Funded Amount shall be held in your Account throughout the Pre-Funded Settle Later Period and shall be applied towards settlement of the relevant trade upon completion.

You acknowledge and agree that during any Pre-Funded Settle Later Period, the market price of the relevant digital asset may fluctuate. We shall not be liable for any loss, cost, or expense arising from such price movements, and the trade shall be settled at the price agreed at the time of the original trade instruction, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
