Learning how to withdraw money from Crypto.com can feel confusing if your balance is still held in cryptocurrency. You generally need to sell the crypto for U.S. dollars before you can send cash to your bank.
For U.S. users, Crypto.com currently supports USD withdrawals from the App through ACH and, for eligible banks, Real-Time Payments. This guide explains the steps, fees, limits, holds, and common withdrawal problems.

What Does It Mean to Withdraw Money from Crypto.com?
A cash withdrawal generally moves U.S. dollars from your Crypto.com USD Account to a bank account in your name. If you still hold Bitcoin, Ethereum, CRO, or another crypto asset, you generally need to sell enough of it into your USD balance first.
A crypto withdrawal is different. It sends cryptocurrency to another wallet or exchange and may involve network fees and blockchain confirmation times.
Crypto.com Cash Withdrawal Options
| Method | Destination | Current App fee | Main limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| ACH | Linked U.S. bank | Generally $0 | Up to $100,000 daily |
| RTP | Eligible U.S. bank | Generally 1.5% for non-Prime users | Up to $75,000 per transaction |
| Crypto withdrawal | External wallet | Network fee generally applies | Varies by asset |
Crypto.com currently lets App users link up to five bank accounts. The bank account name generally must match the verified name on your Crypto.com account.
Sell Crypto Before You Withdraw
If your money is still invested in crypto, you generally need to sell the amount you want to cash out. The proceeds then move into your USD Account.
You can typically open the crypto asset, choose Sell, select your USD balance as the destination, enter the amount, and review the transaction. Menu wording may change as the App is updated.
Selling crypto may also create a taxable event in the United States. Your tax result generally depends on your cost basis and sale price.
Pro Tip: Check the cash amount you will receive before confirming the sale. Selling crypto and withdrawing USD are separate transactions, so different pricing, fees, and limits may apply.
How to Withdraw Money by ACH
ACH is generally the lowest-cost bank withdrawal option for U.S. App users. Crypto.com currently lists no platform fee for this service, although your bank may have its own charges.
You can generally:
- Open the Crypto.com App.
- Tap Accounts.
- Open your USD Account.
- Tap Transfer, then Withdraw.
- Add or select a bank account.
- Link a new bank through Plaid if needed.
- Enter the amount.
- Review and confirm the request.
Crypto.com currently lists a $1 minimum for App ACH withdrawals. Standard users generally have a maximum of $100,000 or five withdrawals per day, and $500,000 or 30 withdrawals per month.
How to Use Real-Time Payments
If your bank supports RTP, you may see a Real-Time Payment option. RTP generally moves eligible money within seconds and operates 24/7, including weekends and holidays.
Go to Accounts > USD Account > Withdraw > Real-Time Payment. Select or link the bank, enter the amount, review the fee, and confirm.
Crypto.com currently lists a $1 minimum and $75,000 maximum per RTP transaction. The current fee for non-Prime users is generally 1.5%, so compare it with ACH before sending a large amount.
Why Your Money May Be Unavailable
A visible balance is not always available to withdraw. This is especially important if you recently used Crypto.com Instant Deposit.
Crypto.com currently says Instant Deposit gives you trading access before the ACH transfer fully settles. The deposited value, including crypto bought with it, is generally restricted from withdrawal for seven business days.
You may therefore be able to trade money that you cannot yet transfer out. Federal holidays and deposit timing may affect when that hold ends.
Common Mistakes: Do not assume “available to trade” means “available to withdraw.” Check whether any part of your USD or crypto balance is still pending before trying again.
Why Your Bank Account May Not Link
Crypto.com generally requires the bank account name to match the name used for your account verification. A different legal name, middle name, or account holder may cause the connection to fail.
You can generally save up to five bank accounts. If an old connection has expired, removing it and adding the account again may help.
Reddit users have also reported bank-linking problems tied to name matching. These reports are individual experiences, but they are consistent with Crypto.com’s official matching requirement.
How Long Does a Withdrawal Take?
Timing generally depends on your withdrawal method, bank, and account status. RTP is designed for transfers in seconds when your bank is eligible.
Crypto.com’s U.S. Exchange currently says ACH withdrawals typically take one to three business days. The App and Exchange are different products, so you should use the estimated timing shown for your own withdrawal.
A pending balance or security review may add time. Weekends and bank holidays can also affect non-RTP transfers.
Crypto.com App vs. Exchange
The Crypto.com App and Crypto.com Exchange have different withdrawal rules. You should not assume a limit shown for one product applies to the other.
For example, the App currently lists a $1 ACH minimum, while the U.S. Exchange lists a $100 ACH minimum. Always follow the fee and limit shown inside the product you are using.
What to Do If a Withdrawal Is Pending or Rejected
First, check whether your USD balance has fully settled. If you used Instant Deposit, its seven-business-day restriction may explain why the withdrawal is blocked.
Also confirm that your bank belongs to you, the name matches, and the amount fits your current limits. Save the transaction details if Crypto.com shows the transfer as completed but your bank has not received it.
Crypto.com directs users with account-specific issues to its official support chat. Avoid unsolicited “support” messages on Reddit, Telegram, WhatsApp, or social media.
Is Crypto.com Legitimate?
Crypto.com is an established cryptocurrency platform with U.S. cash-withdrawal services. However, account holds, verification checks, and customer-service disputes may still occur.
BBB currently shows a pattern-of-complaints alert for Crypto.com, and Trustpilot includes many negative reviews involving support and account access. Reddit also contains reports of bank-linking and withdrawal problems.
These reports do not prove that every complaint is accurate or that you will have the same experience. For your account, official transaction records and Crypto.com support generally provide more useful evidence.
Withdrawing Crypto Instead of Cash
You can generally send supported cryptocurrency to an external wallet without selling it. In the App, this typically starts from Accounts > Crypto Wallet > Transfer > Withdraw.
Check the wallet address, asset, and blockchain network carefully. Some assets also require a memo or destination tag, and a wrong entry may result in lost funds.
