5.     The upper and lower limits allowed for each user are  5,000 USD and 30 USD, respectively. Users are not allowed to purchase more if they reach the upper payment limit.

The quota of a specific fiat currency that can be used to purchase a specific token is calculated based on the USD purchase quota. Please see below for details:

(1)    Calculation of the fiat purchase quota: Fiat purchase quota = USD purchase quota * exchange rate between the USD and the specific fiat.

For example, if the exchange rate between the USD and the EUR is 1USD=0.9 EUR. Based on the payment limits of 30-5,000 USD, the daily purchase limit for EUR is between 27 EUR and 4,500 EUR.

(2)    The purchase quota of a specific token is calculated based on the payment limits of 30-5,000 USD.

For example, assume DOT is currently priced at 15 USDT. Based on the payment limits of 30-5,000 USD, the daily purchase limit for DOT is between 2 DOT and 333.33 DOT.

Please pay attention to the purchase quota for the specific fiat and the target token before purchasing with a credit or debit card. To quickly and effectively execute a trade, it’s suggested that users should be aware of the purchase limit while trading so as to avoid an order-placing failure.

6.     2% gateway/processing fees will be charged by banks and institutions for all purchases. Please be aware of the specific fees on the trading page while trading.

7.     The system automatically updates token quotes every minute. User should confirm their orders in a timely manner before the next quote update to avoid delays while trading.

8.     Factors such as payment failure due to incorrect passwords will lead to a trading failure. User accounts will be disabled for six hours after two consecutive trading failures, and will permanently be disabled after five trading failures in a row. (Please note: the failures will be erased once the trade is completed, without any effect on following trades.) If users encounter continued trading failures, please self-check further or contract Customer Support to find the causes.
