Costs β read this part
The convenience has a price. The app's fees and spreads are materially higher than the Crypto.com Exchange's maker/taker tiers for the same purchase, and higher than Kraken Pro or Coinbase Advanced Trade.
If you buy through the app out of habit, you are paying the most expensive option on this page for the same asset. For anything beyond occasional small purchases, use the Exchange.
The referral offer
Crypto.com runs an app sign-up referral where both sides can receive a reward after the new account meets the qualifying conditions. Terms vary by campaign and region β check the live offer before signing up.
Tax
Crypto gains in Romania follow their own rules, separate from the 3%/6% securities withholding regime. Verify the position for your own circumstances.
Who it suits
People who want to buy crypto from their phone with minimum friction and are willing to pay for that convenience β or who use the Exchange rather than the app for anything sizeable.
