4.24. In addition to these Rules, certain exchange directions may have additional conditions (for example: fees, limits, execution times, verification requirements, and others). These conditions are displayed when creating an Exchange Request. Continuing to complete the Exchange Request signifies the User's agreement with such conditions. In case of a conflict between these Rules and the special conditions, the special conditions shall apply. By creating an Exchange Request, the User confirms that they have read and agreed to them.
5. Rules for Rate Fixation
The Service uses cryptocurrency exchanges Binance, Coinbase, OKX and Kraken to determine the current cryptoasset rates. The exchange rate is fixed at the moment the required number of confirmations is received in the respective network, exclusively during Service working hours, and only after providing proof of sending cryptoassets to the Service operator within 30 minutes from the creation of the Request. The Service hedges Requests via market orders; rate volatility may reach up to 5%.
Required confirmations for various cryptoassets are as follows:
| Cryptocurrency | Confirmations |
|---|---|
| BTC (Bitcoin) | 4 |
| ETH (Ethereum) | 21 |
| USDT (TRC-20, ERC-20, BEP-20) | 21 |
| USDC (TRC-20, ERC-20, BEP-20) | 21 |
When exchanging fiat funds for cryptoassets, the exchange rate is fixed after payment confirmation during Service working hours. Fiat cross-rates are determined according to market rates; in high volatility, cross-rates may be fixed based on www.xe.com.
The amount to be received is determined based on the actual payment received by the Service, except as provided in Sections 4 and also Sections 8, 11 and 13.
6. Fees
The Service commission is calculated using the formula:
I (%) = (P / L − 1) × 100, where:
P — asset value on the Service at the time it is credited to the Service account;
L — market value of the asset at the time it is credited, determined:
- For cryptoassets — based on cryptocurrency exchange data (Binance, Coinbase, OKX and Kraken);
- For fiat funds — based on market cross-rate (during high volatility, cross-rate may be fixed according to www.xe.com).
This formula is used to calculate the percentage commission retained by the Service for performing the exchange operation.
7. Warranty Period
The Company guarantees the services provided for 24 hours from the completion of the exchange operation unless otherwise specified in these Terms or the Exchange Request.
