New, clear and transparent crypto price structure

Etoro offers a clear and transparent price structure for trading with crypto-assets. This enables you full transparency about the costs of every trade and a better understanding of your investment development.

Below you will find a breakdown of how the pricing works, which fees are incurred and what you can expect from the crypto handle on Etoro.

Transparent fee structure

If you open and close a crypto position at Etoro, the fee (commission) is displayed as a separate position. So we make sure that you Know exactly what you pay.

The crypto commission is 1 % of the position value, both at the opening and the closure.
This fee is shown separately from the market route.
The commission is deducted from its available account balance (the same credit used for opening the trades) when you open and close a position.
The fee is shown separately and raised at the time of the opening and closure of a position, which offers complete transparency.

New, extremely competitive spreads

Etoro now offers extremely tight crypto spreads, which means that the difference between the purchase and sales price of the individual crypto-assets is kept minimal. This helps ensure that your trades are carried out at extremely competitive courses and that the costs for opening and closing a position are reduced.

Clear market development in your profit and loss account

Your profit and loss (GUV / P&L) reflects the actual market movement of the asset.

Fees are displayed separately and have no influence on your P&L calculations.
This gives you a clear picture of how your investment develops over time, whereby the results are determined exclusively by the market prices.

What you pay (and where you can see it)

In their account statements: All fees are listed separately for complete transparency.

There are no additional or hidden fees For trading with crypto. Everything is shown clearly and easily so that you can make well -founded decisions.

This is how it works

No surcharge for BID and ASK prices

The BID and ASK prices that you see on the platform only reflect the natural market interdread without an additional fee.

The commission is calculated separately and applied directly to the proceeds of your trades – both if you open a position and when you close a position.

Effects on profit and loss (GUV / P & L)

Your profit or loss (GUV / P&L) is calculated on the basis of pure market prices, without registered commission fees in BID and ASK.

The commission is applied separately to your position both when opening and closing.

Fee treatment with open positions

The commission is not reflected in your GUV during the duration of the trades. It is charged separately when the position is closed and displayed as a separate position.

Example

If you keep 1 Bitcoin worth $ 100,000, its value is determined by the market BID price-the price you would receive if you would sell it.

The BID Prize only reflects the market value-there is no calculated commission.

Your GUV shows this full value and the commission is charged as a separate fee when you close the position.

This ensures clarity in pricing, while the total fees remain consistent.

So it worked beforehand

Surcharge for BID and ASK prices

In the crypto handle we added a surcharge (Etoro Commission) to both the BID and ASK price.

In most cases, the BID and ASK prices on the platform already contained both the market specific and our commission. Together they formed the “overall spread”.

Effects on profit and loss (GUV / P & L)

If you open a trade, your profit or loss (GUV / P&L) will be calculated based on the difference between the opening and the closing course, which contained commission. This meant that the commission was already included in its GUV.

Example

If you bought 1 Bitcoin at an ASK price of $ 101,000, this price contained a commission of 1 % for opening and closing. Their initial profit/loss was based on the BID price of $ 100,000, which also contained 1 % commission.

As a result, its position began with a loss of 2 % plus a natural market linkage (the difference between BID and ASK prices without commission).
