Does Current charge trading fees?
Nope! Unlike many crypto platforms, we don’t charge trading fees on top of your crypto transaction. There is a spread (or margin) between the market price and the exchange rate between US dollars and the crypto asset displayed to the user, similar to most crypto exchanges.
Do I need to purchase an entire coin?
Nope! You only need as little as $1 in your Current account to get started. You’ll be able to purchase part of a coin, referred to as ‘fractional ownership.’
How do I view my crypto transaction history?
If you want to see the history of your transactions of a specific coin, you can follow these steps:
-
-
- From the Overview tab, tap on the Crypto icon
- Scroll to the bottom and tap See All Crypto
- Select a coin that you’ve previously purchased
- Tap Trading History to view your entire transaction history for that specific coin
-
My crypto transaction didn’t go through. What should I do?
If you receive an error when trying to buy a coin, check your account balance to make sure that you have enough funds to cover the transaction. If you do have enough funds to cover the transaction and are still unable to make a purchase, please allow 10-15 minutes before retrying the transaction.
