Master the Art of Converting Crypto to Traditional Currency on Leading Exchanges

The Complete Guide to Selling Crypto for Fiat and Card Withdrawals

Converting your digital assets to traditional currency has never been more straightforward with the advanced tools available on today’s leading cryptocurrency exchanges. This professional guide walks you through the complete process of liquidating your crypto holdings and transferring the funds directly to your payment card—all within a secure trading environment.

Mobile App Solution: Converting Crypto to Fiat

The mobile application offers a convenient way to liquidate your digital assets and withdraw funds while on the go:

  1. Access the conversion gateway by logging into your account and navigating to [Add Funds] - [Buy Crypto], then switch to the [Sell] tab at the top of the interface.

  2. Configure your transaction parameters:

    • Select the cryptocurrency you wish to liquidate
    • Choose your preferred fiat currency for settlement
    • Enter the transaction amount
    • Select [Card] as your preferred withdrawal method
    • Review and accept the Terms of Service for Buy & Sell transactions
  3. Payment method setup:

    • Choose a previously linked payment card
    • Alternatively, add and verify a new card if this is your first transaction
  4. Transaction processing will begin immediately after confirmation.

Important Security Protocol: Any payment card that hasn’t previously been used for deposit activities (including standard purchases, deposits, limit orders, or recurring transactions) must complete a verification process through a zero-value authorization transaction before it can be utilized for withdrawals or selling operations.

  1. Final verification step:
    • Review all transaction details carefully
    • Confirm your understanding of the terms and conditions
    • Tap [Confirm] to execute the transaction

Important Fee Considerations:

  • Credit card transactions may incur additional fees beyond the standard platform charges. It’s highly recommended to review your card issuer’s terms and conditions regarding cryptocurrency transactions before proceeding with your order.
  • In cases where a withdrawal fails due to banking restrictions or technical issues, funds are automatically returned to your account in USDC stablecoin, allowing you to attempt the withdrawal later or select an alternative method.
  1. Complete any required security verifications to authenticate the transaction.

If security verification takes longer than expected, the quoted price may expire due to market volatility. Should this occur, you’ll be presented with an updated quote for review before proceeding.

  1. Upon successful verification, your order will be submitted for processing.

  2. To track transaction status or review historical data, navigate to [Trade] - [History] - [Sell] in your account dashboard.

Desktop Platform: Streamlined Crypto-to-Fiat Conversion

For users who prefer desktop operations, the web platform offers a robust solution with expanded functionality:

  1. Begin by accessing your account and navigating to the [Sell] section.

    From this interface, select your desired cryptocurrency for liquidation, specify your preferred fiat currency, and enter the transaction amount.

  2. Select [Card] from the available payment method options.

  3. Payment setup process:

    • Choose from your previously linked payment cards
    • If adding a new card, enter the required card information carefully
    • Click [Confirm] to proceed
  4. Allow the system sufficient time to process your transaction securely.

Security Note: First-time card users must complete a verification process through a zero-value authorization transaction before the card can be utilized for selling operations or withdrawals.

  1. Final verification:
    • Review all transaction details thoroughly
    • Read through the Buy and Sell Crypto Services Terms
    • Click [Confirm] to authorize the transaction

Important Fee Advisory: Credit card transactions may incur additional charges from your card issuer beyond the platform’s standard fees. Always consult your card provider’s terms and conditions regarding cryptocurrency transactions before finalizing your order.

  1. Complete any required security verifications to authenticate your identity and authorize the transaction.

Should the verification process extend beyond the price quote’s validity period, you’ll be presented with an updated market rate for review and confirmation.

  1. Upon successful verification, your transaction will be submitted for processing.

  2. For transaction monitoring or support requirements, navigate to [Assets] - [Transaction History], then filter by [Fiat Order] - [Sell] to access your complete transaction history.
