How it works? Here’s an example:
When using a payment method with tiered fees (rates that vary based on transaction volume), the total fee is a combination of charges applied progressively across each tier.
For instance, if you make a manual bank transfer purchase of €5,000:
A fee of 1.99% is applied over the first €2,500 (€49.75) plus 1.49% over the remaining €2,500 (€37.25) resulting in a total fee of €87 (€49,75 + €37,25 = €87)
🌐 Network fee
The network fee is determined by miners/validators on the blockchain in question. It reflects the current cost per transaction based on the network's usage level. This fee is entirely paid to miners/validators to cover transaction costs, and we do not influence its amount.
🤝 Partner fee
Some integration partners may impose a small fee, which represents a percentage of the transaction's cost, in addition to Ramp Network's fees. This fee is set by and paid entirely to the integration partner when utilizing their platforms. It is important to note that this fee does not apply when buying directly through Ramp Network.
🏦 Possible additional charges
Depending on your country and the fiat currency involved, your bank may apply extra charges for currency conversion or international transactions. This fee is not determined or collected by us; it is solely managed by your bank. If you have any questions or concerns about potential fees, we recommend contacting your bank directly for more information.
🏷️ Cryptoasset pricing at Ramp Network
It’s crucial to remember that the amount of crypto you receive is based on the exchange rate at the time your payment reaches our account (the moment we actually receive the funds you sent), not when you place the order.
