eToro Crypto: underlying coins, tiered fees, wallets and regional restrictions

Market and limit orders, stop loss and take profit are described in the current German real-crypto workflow. The European terms also warn that a cancellation request is not a confirmed cancellation and that replacing an unconfirmed order can create duplicate execution. Review the live order status before submitting a replacement. A stop is an instruction, not a guaranteed execution price.[14][2]

For automated execution, the public API supports opening a position by cash amount or units and closing an existing position fully or partially. Its examples distinguish the asset identifier, direction, leverage and sizing field. Available instruments and permissions still come from the actual account; an API capability does not override a geographic product restriction.[25]

The global base fee for a real-crypto transaction is 1%. Eligible Platinum, Platinum+ and Diamond members receive tiered rates based on the preceding calendar month’s manual real-crypto buy and sell volume. CopyTrader, Smart Portfolios, CFDs and futures do not count toward that volume. The structure took effect on 1 May 2026.[4]

The published personal-account first-deposit minimum is USD50 in many countries, USD100 in several Gulf markets and higher in others. Later deposits are generally USD50, with stated UK and US exceptions of USD10 and USD1. Bank transfers have a USD500 minimum. These are funding thresholds, not a universal minimum crypto order or an assurance that every listed funding method is available.[11]

Use the live transfer page for each asset’s minimum position size. A platform-to-wallet request, an external blockchain transfer and a cash sale from the wallet are separate actions with different fees. For ETH and ERC-20 transfers, the wallet-fee guide also warns that the receiving provider must support transactions from its multisignature smart-contract setup.[7][6]

Local accounts currently include GBP, EUR, AUD and DKK, with features determined by country. The wallet availability page distinguishes holding local cash, moving it to a USD investment account and supported crypto functions. Check the exact currency route and conversion cost before treating a free deposit or withdrawal as an entirely cost-free funding cycle.[35]

eToro’s custody guide describes the investment platform as custodial, with most crypto held in cold storage, while the crypto wallet uses hot storage. The user therefore needs to distinguish a displayed crypto balance from personal control of private keys. Moving to a hosted eToro wallet changes the service and transfer workflow, but does not by itself establish self-custody.[12]

German clients can consent to move custody from Tangany to eToro Europe after verification and acceptance of updated terms. Available since 7 January 2026, the free move may take 48 hours. Remaining with Tangany preserves trading and holding but excludes eToro wallet access and staking; external withdrawals go through Tangany.[13]

The ownership guide identifies Singapore-entity crypto positions and positions for residents of Egypt, Estonia, Jordan and Qatar as CFDs. Hungarian positions opened from 10 August 2025 are also CFDs. Historical holdings can retain an earlier product type, making the position label and opening date consequential.[1]

The October 2026 app transition is gradual. eToro announced staged upgrades starting 4 October, keeping the same login, account and portfolio. The separately named early-access eToro AI app is temporary and is to be retired after the main app upgrades. This is an interface migration, not an instruction to create a second funded account or transfer the portfolio.[21]

During an indicated platform outage, eToro’s Offline Mode can accept requests to close positions. Such a request cannot be cancelled. Execution occurs as soon as possible at the price available when the position is actually closed, rather than the price when the request was made. Keep the request and execution times when reviewing a disputed outcome.[29]

Two-factor authentication supports app push notifications, SMS or a phone call. The current guide distinguishes a signed-in session from a trusted device and describes separate persistence periods, so a remembered login should not be treated as permanent authentication. When a phone number is lost, the recovery flow can require an identity-document image, selfie, email code and verification of the new number. Availability varies by region and recent personal-data changes.[30][31]

The account statement is available for a chosen period in PDF and Excel. The statement guide says the feature is unavailable in the early eToro AI app, directing customers to the web or original app. The crypto-deposit guide separately warns that eToro does not retain the original acquisition cost of transferred assets. Retain that cost history independently.[33][10]

Closing the account requires closing positions and copies, withdrawing USD and local-currency funds and completing outstanding verification. The closure guide says the account cannot then be reopened; a later registration needs a different email and username. A published zero inactivity fee and voluntary account closure are separate matters.[32]

The US crypto providers are separate from eToro USA Securities Inc. The latter’s securities-broker membership should not be used to describe protection for crypto holdings. Likewise, a securities licence or electronic-money permission elsewhere in the group does not establish identical crypto services for every customer.[5][15]

eToro was founded in 2007 and describes itself as a Nasdaq-listed platform used by millions of people in 75 countries. That is the group’s reported multi-asset reach. It is not a disclosed number of active crypto traders, an exchange order-book volume measure or evidence that all those countries receive the same wallet and staking services.[36]

Stopping a copy offers two materially different choices. Close All sells the copied positions and moves the proceeds to available cash. Keep All moves the positions into the customer’s own portfolio as manual trades; only uninvested copy cash is released. Keeping the positions leaves their market exposure and future management with the customer.[28]

Staking requires eligible underlying positions; CFDs and wallet balances are excluded. The general guide requires European opt-in and separate switches for specified assets. The German migration guide describes a different activation default. Check the account setting and German custody choice before assuming participation.[20][13]

The staking guide lists assets including ETH, SOL, ADA, DOT and SUI. It describes asset-specific introductory holding periods, a USD1 minimum reward and payment generally within the first 14 days of the next month. Eligibility, network risks and reward timing need to be checked separately from the ability to buy or transfer a token.[20]

The Agent Portfolio announcement describes a staged beta rollout, while the current Tori page links conversational access to that portfolio workflow. Distinguish an informational answer from an enabled trading agent. Connecting an agent with execution authority is an account action; the presence of a chat interface alone does not show which assets, regions or permissions are available.[23][22]

The current crypto-deposit promotion runs from 8 October to 31 December 2026 under its published terms. It awards 5% of a positive monthly net qualifying amount, capped at USD1,000 monthly. The calculation accounts for withdrawals and negative carry-forward balances. Stock rewards have a one-year withdrawal lock, and the selection email has a 30-day deadline. Certain cases receive cash instead, including awards below USD2.50 or specified entity mismatches. This is not an unconditional promise of immediately withdrawable 5% cash. eToro may amend or end the promotion.[34]
