____________________
* Cryptocurrency withdrawals: Network dependent** (we always quote you a fee before you confirm your withdrawal. This fee can be more than we pay the network, and we use the difference to manage our series of cold, warm and hot wallet infrastructure.) To view the current withdrawal charge, simply click to send the relevant cryptocurrency, and you'll be provided with a fee quote.
** This depends on two factors: (1) the cryptocurrency being withdrawn and (2) the level of activity on the relevant blockchain.
*** Fast Withdrawal is implied and hence auto-enabled if you bank with the same financial institution as VALR and will not incur the Fast Withdrawal fee.
**** Deposit rejection fees are deducted if a deposit is made incorrectly. Full payment is automatically returned to the sender's bank account before the penalty fee is debited.
***** Withdrawal reversal fees are deducted from an account balance if a withdrawal is made incorrectly or fails. This is only for failures where the bank has been instructed to send USD and fails due to errors such as incorrect account numbers.
