RISK WARNING

The trading of goods and products, real or virtual, as well as virtual currencies involves a significant risk. Prices can and do fluctuate on any given day. Such price fluctuations may increase or decrease the value of your assets at any given moment. Any currency, virtual or not, may be subject to large swings in value and may even become worthless. There is an inherent risk that losses will occur as a result of buying, selling, or trading anything on a market.

Trading cryptocurrencies also has special risks not generally shared with official currencies, goods, or commodities in a market. Unlike most currencies that are backed by governments, other legal entities, or commodities such as gold or silver, cryptocurrencies are a unique type of Internet digital currency, backed by technology and trust. There is no central bank that can issue more currency or take corrective measures to protect the value of cryptocurrencies in a crisis.

Instead, cryptocurrencies are an as-yet autonomous and largely unregulated global system of firms and individuals. Traders put their trust in a digital, decentralized, and partially anonymous system that relies on peer-to-peer networking and cryptography to maintain its integrity.

The trading of cryptocurrencies is often susceptible to irrational bubbles or loss of confidence, which could collapse demand relative to supply. For example, confidence might collapse in cryptocurrencies because of unexpected changes imposed by software developers or others, a government crackdown, the creation of superior competing alternative currencies, or a deflationary or inflationary spiral. Confidence might also collapse because of technical problems: if the anonymity of the system is compromised, if money is lost or stolen, or if hackers or governments are able to prevent any transactions from settling.

There may be additional risks that we have not foreseen or identified in these Terms and Conditions. You should carefully assess whether your financial situation and tolerance for risk are suitable for buying, selling, or trading cryptocurrencies.

We use our banking providers in order to receive client funds and make payments. Our banking providers DO NOT transfer, exchange, or provide any services in connection with cryptocurrencies.

FEES

Our fees charged are disclosed on a per transaction basis.

Other charges: The Company reserves the right to charge extra service fees for any documents requested by you for a personal use such as but not limited to acknowledgement letters, account confirmation letters for tax purposes or communication retrieval other than already included in the dedicated section for data transfer on the Client’s portal. The Company will communicate the fees to you upon receiving a request for any of the requested documentation.

Chargebacks and similar costs, that may arise from incorrect transactions will be borne by you.
