Trading pairs and cryptos available

CoinSwitch offers a staggering number of trading pairs on their platform. As more than 4500 pairs are possible, it’s not possible to check out all of them. So if you want to check out all the coins and trading pairs, here you go.

    • Not possible to deposit fiat currency

CoinSwitch is only a crypto-to-crypto exchange. This means that it’s not possible to deposit fiat.

CoinSwitch fees

Here’s how the fee works: when you choose an exchange to buy or sell, the fee of the particular exchange gets calculated. Basically, the fee depends upon the exchange that you use. A fee ranging from 0% to 0.49% will be charged for your transaction.

The rate does not determine the full cost though. There may also be a fee that will be charged by the exchange you choose itself. Due to this CoinSwitch doesn’t have such a clear fee or pricing scheme as compared to other exchanges.

There is also a network fee. A network fee is like a commission a blockchain takes from the amount you transact. However, if your amount is too low to cover this fee, the transaction that you want to carry out will fail.

Place a buy order limit in CoinSwitch app
