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.
- Standard: 0.5% fee charged for exchanges over 750,000 JPY or equivalent
- Premium & Metal: No exchange fees on weekdays
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 every month.
To check your usage and reset date, tap your profile icon in the top-left corner and select 'Your plan'.
Weekend mark up fees
All customers, regardless of their plan, will be charged a 1% fee on all exchanges made on the weekend between 5pm Eastern Standard Time (EST) Friday and 6pm EST Sunday.
Currency exchange limits
You can perform up to 100 exchanges within a 24-hour period. The limit includes currency exchange, and commodity exchange.
