If you're keen to understand your buying and selling limits, you've come to the right place!

We understand that sometimes that you may want to spend or sell more than what your current limits are set to.

If you would like to spend beyond our standard account limits, or transact privacy coins - then we are required to verify the source of the money/currency you plan to spend with us.
โ€‹
We don't want to get in the way between you and your crypto, so here is how you can easily apply for additional limits for buys or sells to ensure your application is approved first time round!



Increasing your buy limit

What are my buying limits?

Provided youโ€™ve had both your ID & home address verified, you will be granted our standard account limits:

  • NZ$100,000 total to start out. Once this amount is spent, your limits will be topped up to $20,000 at the start of each month moving forward.

  • Daily spend cap of $20,000 per day on buy orders.

How do I increase my buy limits?

To raise your limit from the standard amount, please tell us what you would like your limit set to and provide some additional information about where the funds are coming from.

Increasing your sell limit


โ€‹What are my selling limits?

We don't have daily limits on sell orders. Anything you've bought through us you can sell at any time.

If the cryptocurrency wasn't purchased through us originally you will need to provide evidence of where it came from before you can sell more than NZ$100,000 through us.
โ€‹

This is NZ$100,000 in total of all crypto not purchased through us - not a per-transaction limit. You can view your total spend limit from your Limits page.
โ€‹

How do I increase my sell limits?

If you bought your cryptocurrency through us originally, nothing further required! As long as we still have the crypto listed, youโ€™ll be able to sell the same amount back to us, no matter what the value has changed to. ๐Ÿ˜

๐Ÿ’กFor example: if you bought 3 BTC and 10 XRP from us, you can sell back 3 BTC and 10 XRP regardless of how high they moon! ๐Ÿš€

If you're planning on selling more than NZ$100,000 worth of crypto you sourced from somewhere else, we'll need you to provide some additional information on where this crypto has come from.

Here are some examples or suggestions on ways you can show where you got the crypto originally:

What if the rate is really good, can I sell it all right now?

Yes. If you purchased from us, sweet as!
โ€‹
If you bought somewhere else just verify your source of crypto with us in advance and you'll be good to go.

So wait, there are no limits on how much I can sell?

Correct. As long as we know where it came from, you can sell it all at once - If it's worth $50,000 you can sell it. If it's worth $5,000,000* you can sell it.

*Currently we are limited to $500,000 per sell order, but you can place multiple orders until you hit your personal limit. If you would like to make a larger order please contact our OTC team to discuss your options [email protected]

How can I buy privacy coins?


If you're wanting to buy privacy coins like Dash and Monero from us, you'll first need to provide some extra information to get your account upgraded.
โ€‹
The reason that we ask for this extra information, is because NZ law requires us to do "enhanced due diligence" on customers who are purchasing coins that "may favour anonymity".

See the above "source of funds" information for what we can accept as evidence to grant you access to privacy coins.

Once we receive the required information from you, our team will then manually process your request.

๐Ÿ’ก The information that you provide is not passed on to any third parties, and we use it only to verify your account. It is highly encrypted and stored behind multiple levels of authentication and 2FA.


Please submit your application to access privacy coins here:

Once your request has been reviewed, our team will get back to you
