The site's referral record is not registered; the code, benefits and commercial arrangement in the account-opening guide remain unverified. We publish no limit figures here, for the reason given in the first section. Full disclosure.
Account limits belong to the level, not to you
A limit you have run into is almost always a level you have not completed. Knowing which one, before you need the headroom, is the whole of this page.
People read a limit as a judgement about them. It is not personal, it is not permanent, and it is not usually a risk assessment. It is a number attached to a verification tier, and tiers can be completed.
Why there are no numbers on this page
The obvious version of this article would be a table of platforms against limits by tier. Publishing one would be irresponsible for a reason worth being explicit about.
Limits are not a single global figure. The same platform applies different limits to the same tier depending on your registered region, the funding rail in question, the asset, and periodically on nothing you can observe at all. A figure that is accurate for one reader is wrong for the next, and both would be reading the same row.
They also change without announcement, because they are partly a compliance parameter and partly a risk-management one, and neither is published on a schedule.
So a table would produce two failure modes and both cost money: someone plans around a ceiling that is lower for them than we printed, or abandons a plan because of a ceiling that does not apply to them. What holds across platforms is the structure — what the tiers are, what each one gates, and how to read your own.
What the tiers generally are
Names differ. The progression is remarkably consistent, because it follows a regulatory logic rather than a product one.
Registered but unverified. An email address and a password. On most platforms this allows very little: often deposits and trading with no withdrawals, or nothing beyond browsing. This is deliberate — it prevents an account being used to move value before anyone knows who holds it.
Basic identity verification. Government document, a photograph of yourself, basic personal details. This is the tier that turns an account into a usable one, and it unlocks the majority of what most people need. The gap between this tier and the one below it is by far the largest step on the ladder.
Address verification. A utility bill or bank statement showing name and address. Usually raises limits meaningfully and often gates fiat rails specifically, because bank-linked routes carry requirements that crypto-only activity does not.
Enhanced or source-of-funds verification. Documentation of where the money came from: payslips, tax records, sale documents. Required above certain thresholds, and the tier where processing stops being automated and starts involving a person, which is why it takes days rather than minutes.
The pattern underneath is that each tier corresponds to a question a regulator requires the platform to be able to answer. Who is this. Where do they live. Where did this money come from. Read that way, the requests stop feeling arbitrary, which does not make them less tedious but does make them predictable.
What limits actually gate
"Limit" covers several different constraints that behave differently, and knowing which one you have hit determines what to do about it.
| Constraint | How it behaves |
|---|---|
| Daily withdrawal cap | Rolling, usually 24 hours rather than calendar days. Waiting resolves it. |
| Monthly or annual cap | Resets on a schedule. Waiting resolves it eventually; completing a tier resolves it now. |
| Per-transaction maximum | Splitting the transaction works, subject to the caps above and to any fee per transfer. |
| Rail-specific limit | Attached to the funding route, not the account. A different rail may have completely different headroom. |
| Feature gate | Not a quantity at all. A product or rail is unavailable at your tier and no amount of waiting changes it. |
The two most often confused are the last two. A rail-specific limit means try another route; a feature gate means complete another tier. The interface does not always distinguish them clearly, and the error message is frequently the same.
Limits that are not about your tier
Not every restriction comes from the verification ladder, and it is worth recognising the ones that do not.
New-account and new-device holds. Many platforms restrict withdrawals for a period after registration, after a password change, or after adding a new device or withdrawal address. These are anti-fraud measures with a fixed duration and no appeal, and they are a good sign rather than a bad one — they are the same mechanism that would slow down someone who had compromised your account.
Deposit-method holds. Funds added by certain rails may be unable to leave for several days, because the incoming payment can still be reversed at the other end. This is the platform managing a real exposure rather than obstructing you.
Review holds. Occasionally an activity pattern triggers a manual review. These have no published duration, which makes them the most frustrating, and the only useful response is to answer what is asked promptly and completely.
Distinguishing these from tier limits matters because the remedies are different. Completing another verification tier does nothing about an explicitly stated new-address hold; the account notice supplies the actual duration.
Doing this before you need it
The reason limits become a problem is timing. People complete the minimum verification required to start, and encounter the ceiling at the exact moment they want to move funds — which is frequently a moment when they are already anxious about something else.
Verification is not instant. Basic checks often complete in minutes, but they can queue for hours or days depending on volume, and enhanced verification involves human review by design. Starting that process while you are already waiting to withdraw is the worst possible sequence.
The cheap version of this problem is to complete verification to the level you might plausibly need, before funding anything. It costs an afternoon of nothing happening, and it converts a future emergency into a non-event. This is why our account-opening walkthrough puts verification before the first deposit rather than after it, which is not the order the interface encourages.
The other half is checking the exit before you need it. A rail that funded your account is not guaranteed to be available for withdrawals, and limits are not always symmetrical between the two directions. Confirming both while you hold nothing is the point of the small withdrawal test.
Where your own limits are written
Three places, in order of authority:
- The verification page inside your account. It shows your current tier, the limits attached to it, and what the next tier requires. This is authoritative for you specifically, which no published page can be.
- The withdrawal screen with an amount entered. Where a limit binds, this is where it appears, and it reflects rail-specific and temporary holds that the verification page does not show.
- The platform's help centre. Useful for understanding the structure, unreliable for your specific numbers, and frequently written for a different region than yours.
If the first two disagree, the second is what will happen. And if the number you see is lower than you expected, the first question is not whether something is wrong with the account — it is which tier is unfinished.
Questions
Why do you not publish a table of account limits?
Because limits are not a single figure. The same platform applies different limits to the same tier depending on your registered region, the funding rail, the asset, and factors you cannot observe, and they change without announcement. A published table would be right for some readers and wrong for others reading the same row, in a direction that costs money either way.
I have hit a withdrawal limit. What should I do first?
Identify which kind of limit it is. A rolling daily cap resolves by waiting; a rail-specific limit resolves by using a different route; a feature gate resolves only by completing another verification tier. The verification page inside your account shows your current tier and what the next one requires, and the withdrawal screen with an amount entered shows what is actually binding.
Does completing more verification always raise my limits?
Usually, but not if the restriction is not a tier limit. New-account holds, new-address holds, deposit-method holds and manual review holds all exist independently of your verification level, have their own fixed or unpublished durations, and are unaffected by completing another tier.
Why do platforms ask where my money came from?
Because above certain thresholds they are required to be able to answer that question. Each verification tier corresponds to a question a regulator requires the platform to have an answer to: who you are, where you live, and where the funds originated. That tier involves human review rather than automated checks, which is why it takes days rather than minutes.
When should I complete verification?
Before funding anything, to the level you might plausibly need. Verification queues, and enhanced checks involve human review by design, so beginning the process at the moment you want to withdraw is the worst available sequence. Completing it in advance costs an afternoon of nothing happening and removes a future emergency.
