Costs and tiers

Review amounts and costs before funding

The Basic, Advanced and Premium comparison below uses Canadian dollars. A tier threshold is capital allocated to an account, not a membership fee or a prediction of what that capital will earn.

The fee examples on this page explain the categories to ask about. Confirm the actual provider's current schedule, spread, payment charges and order preview in writing before placing a trade.

The tier schedule is illustrative site content. No live provider contract or confirmed fee card was supplied. The account team must confirm availability and binding amounts before payment.

Additional expenses

A displayed trading fee is not always the full economic cost of an order. Market spreads can widen when liquidity is thin or prices move quickly. A third-party payment provider may charge its own fee, and a bank can impose a receiving or conversion charge.

Digital-asset transfers may involve a network cost. The amount can depend on network congestion and the transfer route. Ask who pays that cost and whether it is shown before a withdrawal is submitted.

Some assets have their own venue or custody costs. The account team should identify each party involved and give you the applicable documents, rather than treating a simple headline percentage as a complete bill.

Payment card and confirmation illustration

Minimum investment and service charges

The tier table starts at CAD 250 for Basic, CAD 1,500 for Advanced and CAD 5,000 for Premium. These amounts describe starting capital in the example schedule. They are not amounts that must be paid to view this website, and they do not make a user eligible for a particular return.

A service fee may be expressed as an explicit commission, a spread in the execution price or a combination. Compare the total amount you pay with the amount that reaches the asset after fees. If the platform introduces a separate legal provider, request that provider's own disclosure before sending funds.

Deposits, withdrawals and processing time

The payment guide describes common methods and indicative processing windows. Card funding can appear quickly while a return to a card can take several business days. Identity checks, banking cutoffs and holidays can add time.

Do not assume that a payment method used for deposit is always available for withdrawal. The account holder name, payment route and anti-fraud checks can affect the permitted destination. Ask whether an intermediary charges a fee that sits outside the site's schedule.

Limits and important notes

Minimum or maximum withdrawal amounts, daily limits and transaction thresholds depend on the actual provider and method. Those limits were not supplied here, so no fixed value is asserted. Ask for them before funding, especially if you expect to withdraw in smaller instalments.

Market values can change while a transfer or sale is being processed. A calculator projection is an illustration only. The final amount available for withdrawal can differ because of price movement, fees, conversion and verification. Save the order preview and provider terms for your records.
