How to set up weekly Bitcoin purchases on Crypto.com? (App Guide)

Accessing the Recurring Buy Feature

1. Open the Crypto.com app and log in to your verified account.

2. Tap the Trade tab located at the bottom navigation bar.
3. Select Bitcoin (BTC) from the list of available cryptocurrencies.
4. Tap the Buy button on the BTC trading screen.
5. Scroll down and locate the toggle labeled Recurring Buy; enable it.
6. The interface switches to a weekly schedule configuration panel with preset options.

Configuring Purchase Frequency and Amount

1. Choose Weekly as the recurrence interval—this option appears as a dedicated radio button.

2. Enter the exact USD amount you wish to spend each week; minimum is $10.
3. Select the preferred funding source: Crypto.com Visa Card, Bank Transfer, or USDC wallet balance.
4. Confirm the day of the week for execution; default is Monday but can be changed to any other weekday.
5. Set the specific time—execution occurs within a 30-minute window centered on your selected hour.

Reviewing and Confirming the Schedule

1. A summary card displays total weekly commitment, next scheduled date, and estimated BTC quantity based on current market rate.

2. Tap Preview Order to view fee breakdown: spread, network cost (if applicable), and service charge.
3. Verify that your KYC status permits recurring fiat purchases—unverified accounts face restrictions or outright denial.
4. Confirm two-factor authentication when prompted; biometric approval may appear depending on device settings.
5. After final confirmation, a green banner appears stating Recurring Buy activated successfully.

Managing Active Weekly Purchases

1. Navigate to Portfolio > Recurring Buys to view all active schedules.

2. Each entry shows status (Active/Paused), BTC received last cycle, and cumulative volume.
3. Tap any row to edit amount, change day, or switch funding method without canceling the entire plan.
4. To pause temporarily, toggle the status switch—no fees apply during inactive periods.
5. To delete permanently, tap the trash icon and confirm with password or biometric verification.

Troubleshooting Common Activation Issues

1. If the Recurring Buy toggle remains grayed out, check whether your region supports automated fiat purchases—some jurisdictions disable this function.

2. Insufficient balance in linked bank account triggers a soft failure; the system skips that week’s purchase without notification.
3. Failed card authorizations due to issuer blocks require updating card details or switching to bank transfer.
4. Time zone mismatches cause execution delays—ensure device clock and Crypto.com profile time zone match exactly.
5. Pending KYC verification halts activation until ID documents are approved and email confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I set different weekly amounts for multiple Bitcoin recurring buys?A: Yes. You may create separate recurring buy orders for BTC using distinct funding sources and varying dollar amounts.

Q: Does Crypto.com average the BTC price across the week or use the spot rate at execution time?A: The platform uses the live market price at the moment the order executes—not an average or pre-fetched quote.

Q: Are recurring buy orders visible on my tax reporting dashboard?A: Yes. Each completed weekly purchase appears individually in the Transaction History and syncs with the Tax Report Generator.

Q: What happens if my linked card expires before the next scheduled purchase?A: The purchase fails silently. No BTC is acquired, and no alert is sent unless you manually check the Recurring Buys section.
