Why Can’t I Receive Emails from Crypto.com?

If you are not receiving emails sent from Crypto.com, please follow the instructions below to check your email’s settings:

1. Are you logged in to the email address registered to your Crypto.com account? Sometimes you might be logged out of your email on your devices and hence can’t see Crypto.com emails. Please log in and refresh.

2. Have you checked the spam folder of your email? If you find that your email service provider is pushing Crypto.com emails into your spam folder, you can mark them as “safe” by whitelisting Crypto.com email addresses. You can refer to How to Whitelist Crypto.com Emails to set it up.

3. Is the functionality of your email client or service provider normal? To be sure that your firewall or antivirus program isn’t causing a security conflict, you can verify the email server settings.

4. Is your inbox packed with emails? You won’t be able to send or receive emails if you have reached the limit. To make room for new emails, you can remove some of the older ones.

5. Register using common email addresses like Gmail, Outlook, etc., if at all possible.


How come I can’t get SMS verification codes?

Crypto.com is always working to improve the user experience by expanding our SMS Authentication coverage. Nonetheless, certain nations and regions aren’t currently supported.

Please check our global SMS coverage list to see if your location is covered if you are unable to enable SMS authentication. Please use Google Authentication as your primary two-factor authentication if your location is not included on the list.
The guide How to Enable Google Authentication (2FA) may be of use to you.

The following actions should be taken if you are still unable to receive SMS codes even after you have activated SMS authentication or if you are currently living in a nation or region covered by our global SMS coverage list:
  • Make sure there is a strong network signal on your mobile device.
  • Disable any call blocking, firewall, anti-virus, and/or caller programs on your phone that might be preventing our SMS Code number from working.
  • Turn your phone back on.
  • Instead, try voice verification.
  • To reset your SMS authentication, please click this link.

What is Two-Factor Authentication?

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is an additional security layer to email verification and your account password. With 2FA enabled, you will have to provide the 2FA code when performing certain actions on the Crypto.com NFT platform.


How does TOTP work?

Crypto.com NFT uses a Time-based One-time Password (TOTP) for Two-Factor Authentication, it involves generating a temporary, unique one-time 6-digit code* that is only valid for 30 seconds. You will need to enter this code to perform actions that affect your assets or personal information on the platform.

*Please keep in mind that the code should consist of numbers only.


How do I set up 2FA on my Crypto.com NFT account?

1. Within the “Settings” page, click “Set Up 2FA” under "Security.”Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on Crypto.com
2. Scan the QR code with an authenticator app, or copy the code to the app to add it manually. Then click “Proceed to Verify.”
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on Crypto.com

  • Users will need to install authenticator apps like Google Authenticator or Authy to set up 2FA

3. Input the verification code, which will be sent to your email inbox and displayed in your authenticator app. Click “Submit”.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on Crypto.com4. After setup is complete, you will see a confirmation message

Please note that the 2FA set up in your Crypto.com NFT account is independent of the one set up for your accounts across other Crypto.com ecosystem products.


Which actions are secured by 2FA?

After 2FA has been enabled, the following actions performed on the Crypto.com NFT platform will require users to enter the 2FA code:

  • List NFT (2FA can be turned off optionally).

  • Accept Bids Offers (2FA can be turned off optionally).

  • Enable 2FA.

  • Request Payout.

  • Login.

  • Reset Password.

  • Withdraw NFT

Please note that withdrawing NFTs requires a mandatory 2FA setup. Upon enabling 2FA, users will face a 24-hour withdrawal lock for all of the NFTs in their accounts.


How do I reset my 2FA?

If you lose your device or don’t have access to your authenticator app, you will need to contact our customer support.

Once your 2FA is revoked, the system will invalidate your previous authentication key. The 2FA section in the “Security” tab in “Settings” will return to its non-setup state, where you can click “Set Up 2FA” to set up 2FA again.

What is "Singpass"?

Singpass is every Singapore resident’s trusted digital identity for easy and secure access to over 1,700 government and private sector services online and in person. Users can log in to digital services, prove their identity over counters, digitally sign documents, and more with the improved Singpass.

Singpass is managed by the Government Technology Agency (GovTech) and is one of eight strategic national projects that drive Singapore’s Smart Nation vision.


What is MyInfo?

MyInfo is a service that allows Singpass users to manage their personal data and pre-fill forms, with their consent, for digital services transactions, including data that is retrieved across participating government agencies. This means that users only need to provide personal data once to the digital service, instead of repeatedly providing data for every online transaction. Users can view their own personal data profile in their Singpass app under the Profile tab.


The app won’t scan my ID or take my photo?

Please try the manual upload feature if you have been unsuccessful in scanning your document and/or photo on your initial attempt.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on Crypto.com

[The following processes will assist you in speeding the verification process]:

[Full Legal Name]: Double-check that the name you type matches the one on the document you give. Please use your complete names instead of acronyms or initials if the paper utilizes them. Make certain there are no spelling errors.

[Have a valid ID]: Take a photograph of the ID in a well-lit environment.  Check that all four corners of the document are visible and that there are no reflections (if your phone’s flashlight is turned on, turn it off). Clean the lens, hold the phone firmly, and position the camera so that the picture frame contacts the edges of the document - the photo will be shot automatically if it does. Check that the information on the image is legible once it has been captured. If you are unsure about the quality of the image, retake it before submitting it.

[Take a Good Selfie]: When trying the picture, keep the camera steady and follow the green dot with your eyes (this technique employs both a video and a photo camera). Try to stay as still as possible - it won’t take long.

Limit Order

What is a Limit Order?

An order placed on the order book at a certain limit price is known as a limit order. It won’t be carried out like a market order right away. Rather, only if the market price hits your limit price (or above) will the limit order be filled. Therefore, you can buy at a lower price or sell at a greater price than the going rate by using a limit order.

Assume, for instance, that the current price of Bitcoin is 50,000 and you set a limit order to purchase 1 BTC at 60,000 USD. Since this is a better price than the one you placed (60,000 USD), your limit order will be executed immediately at 50,000 USD.


What is Market Order

When you make an order for a market order, it is immediately executed at the going rate. It can be used to put orders for both purchases and sales.

A purchase or sell market order can be placed by selecting [Quantity] or [Total]. You can input the amount explicitly, for instance, if you wish to purchase a certain amount of Bitcoin. However, you can use [Total] to place the buy order if you wish to purchase BTC with a specific amount of money, such $10,000 USDT.
