Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your first trade.

01 What is Cryolynx? +

Cryolynx is a South African crypto platform where you can buy, sell, send, receive and earn on cryptocurrency, with balances shown in rand by default. You verify your identity once, deposit crypto, and then trade either through Convert — a simple swap at a quoted rate — or through the full spot Exchange with limit, market and stop orders.

02 What can I do on Cryolynx? +

With a verified Cryolynx account you can:
• Deposit and withdraw crypto across multiple networks.
• Trade on the spot Exchange, or swap coins instantly with Convert.
• Trade tokenized US stocks against USDT.
• Put idle crypto to work with Cryolynx Earn, in flexible or fixed-term products.
• Send crypto instantly and fee-free to another Cryolynx user.
• Refer friends and buy or redeem crypto vouchers.

03 How do I buy crypto on Cryolynx? +

First verify your identity, then fund your account by depositing crypto from another wallet or exchange. Once the funds land you can buy any listed coin — use Convert for a straightforward swap at a quoted rate, or the Exchange if you want to set your own price.

Double-check the network before you send anything — see choosing the right network.

04 Do I need to verify my identity? +

Yes. Verification is a legal requirement for South African crypto platforms, and it applies before you can hold or move funds. You will need a valid government-issued photo ID and a short face scan, and it usually takes a few minutes to submit.

Until you are verified you can browse markets, view charts and read news, but wallets, trading and Earn stay closed — see what you can do before verification, or go straight to how to verify.

05 How do I track prices and trade? +

Live prices, volumes and market movers are on the Markets page, which you can browse without an account. The Exchange adds charts, the order book and recent trades for each pair.

Spot trades carry a 0.1% fee, shown on the order panel before you submit — see trading fees and order types explained.

06 How does Cryolynx Earn work? +

Earn lets you commit coins sitting idle in your wallet to a savings or staking product, either flexible or for a fixed term, and redeem them back to your spot wallet later.

Before you subscribe, read how Earn rates work. The headline rate on a product is normally a promotional tier that applies only to a capped amount — the rest of your balance earns the lower base rate, so your real return is usually well below the advertised figure. Rates are variable, Earn is not a savings account, and it is not covered by any deposit guarantee.
