Do you have any doubts or questions about the new Moneyboxes? Here’s a summary of what’s new, straight to the point!

You can find all the important information in the official announcement about the Moneyboxes, but if you missed any details or want more, here is a list of possible questions and their answers.

What does the promotion on Moneyboxes consist of?

Until 30 June, purchases via Bundles are free of charge: this means that you pay no purchase fees for both recurring and one-off purchases made to top-up the Bundles.

The discount does not apply to Single Coin Moneyboxes.

If you already have a discount on purchases, they cannot be added up.

Why has the balance of my old Moneyboxes been reset?

In order to implement the new Moneyboxes, some changes had to be made to the existing Moneyboxes.

If you had a Moneybox with an associated active recurring purchase, the balance set aside until 4 May 2023 was transferred to the Spot Wallet of the respective cryptocurrency. The Moneybox remains active, as does the associated recurring purchase. Recurring purchases will restart at the set frequency.

If you had a Moneybox without an associated recurring purchase, the total balance of the Moneybox was transferred to the Spot Wallet of the respective cryptocurrency and the Moneybox was closed.

What has changed from the old Moneyboxes?

The main change is the possibility of building a Moneybox containing more than one cryptocurrency. The possibility of including only one, however, is still available with the ‘Single Coin Moneybox’.

How many Moneyboxes can I create?

How do I decide the percentages to be allocated to each cryptocurrency in the Bespoke or Curated bundles?

Adding or removing cryptocurrencies: from the relevant Moneybox page, press the ‘Transfer’ button
Changing percentages, cryptocurrencies or other changes: from the relevant Moneybox page, deactivate the recurring purchase, then go to the Moneybox settings by clicking on the wheel icon and close the Moneybox to reopen it with the desired settings.

How do you close a Moneybox?

From the relevant Moneybox page, deactivate the recurring purchase, then go to the Moneybox settings by clicking on the wheel icon and confirm deletion.

What happens if I close a Moneybox?

Is recurring purchase activation compulsory?

What is the difference between Moneyboxes and recurring purchase?

Recurring purchase is the ability to automate a purchase of any cryptocurrency or Moneybox, regularly. While the Moneybox is simply the section in which to store cryptocurrencies without trading them, recurring purchase is the functionality that allows you to top-up a Moneybox constantly. However, recurring purchases can also be set up on the Spot Wallet.

What is the difference between Spot Wallet and Moneyboxes?

From the Moneybox you cannot sell cryptocurrencies: you must first move them to the Spot Wallet.

Furthermore, in the Spot Wallet it is not possible to create groups of cryptocurrencies and buy them together automatically following their statistics.

What is the difference between the Single Coin Moneybox and the old Moneyboxes?

There are no substantial differences: both allow you to create a Moneybox containing a single cryptocurrency.

The changes applied since the 4 May 2023 update consist of the addition of more supported cryptocurrencies and the improvement of the overall experience.
