Currency exchange fees and limits

Fair usage fees

Depending on your plan, there's a threshold of exchanges that can be made with no additional fees during the weekdays. This limit is called a fair usage limit. To check your usage and reset date, tap your profile icon in the top-left corner and select Your plan or Your limits.

  • Standard: 0.5% fee charged for exchanges over 300,000 JPY or equivalent
  • Premium and Metal: no extra exchange fees

The fair usage limit applies to all fiat currency and commodity exchanges, including exchanges made automatically at the time of a transaction. Your fair usage limit resets each rolling month.

Weekend markup fees

Based on your plan, you may be charged a fee on exchanges made on the weekend from 06:00 Saturday to 07:00 Monday during summer, or from 07:00 Saturday to 08:00 Monday during winter (Eastern Time). This fee is 1% for Standard customers. For Premium and Metal, no extra fee applies on weekends.

Currency exchange limits

You can perform up to 200 exchanges within a 24-hour period. The limit includes currency exchange and commodity exchange.
