Crypto exchange business calculator
Planning your own crypto buy and sell app? See what trading fees and a spread could bring in each month, after your costs, from your own numbers. Free, no sign-up, nothing leaves your browser.
Every figure here is only an example: put in the fees you plan to charge and the costs your partners quote you. It leaves out staff, marketing and compliance costs, and trading volumes rise and fall with crypto prices.
How crypto exchanges make money
Exchanges usually earn a trading fee on each buy or sell, a spread between the buy and sell price, fees for depositing or withdrawing money or crypto, and extras such as cards or premium accounts. Simpler apps show a single buy or sell price, with their margin built in.
Registration comes first
In the UK, a business offering crypto services must register with the FCA for money laundering supervision before it takes customers, and crypto promotions are restricted. Other countries have their own rules, so check where your users live before you launch.
