Crypto.com is a cryptocurrency exchange, brokerage and payments company serving retail and institutional customers across spot, margin and derivatives trading, staking, custody, card and payment acceptance, and on-chain development on the Cronos EVM and Cronos zkEVM networks. Its public developer surface spans four programmable products: the Crypto.com Exchange API v1 (REST, WebSocket and FIX 4.4) for market data, order entry, advanced OCO/OTO/OTOCO orders, trading bots, portfolio, wallet and staking operations; the Crypto.com Pay API for merchant payment acceptance, refunds, subscriptions and invoicing with webhooks and idempotent refunds; the Crypto.com Developer Platform API for Cronos tokens, contracts, transactions, blocks, wallets, CronosID and DeFi; and an agent layer consisting of a published MCP server, an agent-first Rust CLI, and provider-authored Agent Skills for trading through the Crypto.com App and Exchange.
Crypto.com publishes 14 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Account Balance and Positions API, Advanced Order Management API, Crypto Wallet API, and 11 more. Tagged areas include Cryptocurrency, Cryptocurrency Exchange, Trading, Derivatives, and Market Data.
The Crypto.com catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.
Crypto.com’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 37 more developer resources.
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the
Securities & Market Data regime, so
Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite.
If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your
provider repo — the
applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it
carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts
themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already
holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in
front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created.
Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet,
not penalised by it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them,
because the conditional facet above carries the other
25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/crypto-com: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

Markets this provider is in provisional
The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market:
its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted:
not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.
Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted.
Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.

description: 'Retrieve real-time and historical snapshots of wallet balances, open positions, margin requirements, and collateral
status. Use these endpoints to monitor account health, risk exposure, and available trading capacity.
## Account Balance
The user balance response provides a comprehensive view of the account:
- **Available balance** — funds available for new positions and withdrawals
- **Margin balance** — total collateral value (cash + collateral-eligible tokens after haircut)
- **Initial margin (IM)** — collateral required to open current positions and orders
- **Maintenance margin (MM)** — minimum collateral threshold to avoid liquidation
- **Position balance** — per-token breakdown showing quantity, market value, haircut rate, and collateral contribution
If margin balance falls below maintenance margin, the account enters liquidation.
## Positions
The positions endpoint returns all open derivative contracts, including instrument name, quantity (signed to indicate
direction), position cost, and session PnL. For real-time mark price, liquidation price, and margin requirements, subscribe
to the `user.positions` WebSocket channel.
## Subaccounts
Master accounts can create subaccounts to isolate trading activity. Use the subaccount transfer endpoint to move funds
between accounts.'

description: 'Advanced Order Management provides trigger orders and multi-leg execution strategies beyond basic LIMIT and
MARKET orders. Use these endpoints for conditional order execution based on price triggers.
## Trigger Orders
Trigger orders activate when a reference price condition is met. Use [`private/advanced/create-order`](/docs/api/rest/private-advanced-create-order)
to create trigger orders.
| Type | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `STOP_LOSS` | Converts to a market order when trigger price is reached. Used to limit losses. |
| `STOP_LIMIT` | Converts to a limit order when trigger price is reached. Offers price control on stop execution. |
| `TAKE_PROFIT` | Market order activated when price moves favorably to the trigger level. Used to lock in gains. |
| `TAKE_PROFIT_LIMIT` | Limit order activated when price moves favorably to the trigger level. |
Trigger orders require:
- `ref_price` — the trigger price
- `ref_price_type` — reference price source: `MARK_PRICE` (default), `INDEX_PRICE`, or `LAST_PRICE`
## Multi-Leg Strategies
Multi-leg orders link multiple orders together with conditional execution logic.
| Strategy | Description | Endpoint |
|----------|-------------|----------|
| **OCO** (One-Cancels-Other) | Two orders where filling one cancels the other. Typically pairs a take-profit with a stop-loss.
| [`private/advanced/create-oco`](/docs/api/rest/private-advanced-create-oco) |
| **OTO** (One-Triggers-Other) | Primary order triggers a secondary order when filled. Used to attach TP/SL to an entry
order. | [`private/advanced/create-oto`](/docs/api/rest/private-advanced-create-oto) |
| **OTOCO** (One-Triggers-OCO) | Primary order triggers an OCO pair when filled. Entry order with both TP and SL attached.
| [`private/advanced/create-otoco`](/docs/api/rest/private-advanced-create-otoco) |
## Contingency Types
Multi-leg orders use contingency types to define the relationship between legs:
| Type | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `OCO` | One-Cancels-Other: two orders, one cancels when the other fills |
| `SPOT_ATTACH` | Attach trigger orders to a spot position |
| `DERIV_ATTACH` | Attach trigger orders to a derivatives position (supports isolated margin) |
## Order Management
- [`private/advanced/amend-order`](/docs/api/rest/private-advanced-amend-order) — modify trigger price or quantity
- [`private/advanced/cancel-order`](/docs/api/rest/private-advanced-cancel-order) — cancel a single advanced order
- [`private/advanced/cancel-all-orders`](/docs/api/rest/private-advanced-cancel-all-orders) — cancel all advanced orders
for an instrument
- [`private/advanced/get-open-orders`](/docs/api/rest/private-advanced-get-open-orders) — retrieve open advanced orders
- [`private/advanced/get-order-history`](/docs/api/rest/private-advanced-get-order-history) — retrieve advanced order
history

name: Crypto.com OTC RFQ for Taker API
description: 'OTC RFQ (Request For Quote) enables takers to request block trade quotes from multiple liquidity providers,
evaluate received quotes, and execute trades at the best available price. This workflow is designed for institutional
clients who need to trade large sizes with minimal market impact.
## RFQ Trading Flow
**Step 1 — Request a Quote**
Call the request-quote endpoint to create a new quote request. Key parameters include:
- `cl_quote_req_id` — Client-assigned quote request ID for tracking
- `firm_quote` — Whether quotes should be firm (guaranteed execution) or indicative
- `settlement_arrangement` — `IMMEDIATE` for instant settlement
- `duration` — How long the quote request remains open (milliseconds)
- `quote_ttl` — Time-to-live for received quotes (milliseconds)
- `leg_list` — Array of instruments to trade (supports multi-leg combo trades)
The response returns a `quote_req_id` that identifies this request in subsequent calls.
**Step 2 — Monitor Incoming Quotes**
As liquidity providers respond to your quote request, you can retrieve quotes via REST polling or WebSocket subscriptions.
Each quote includes `bid` and `ask` prices, available quantities, and an expiration time.
**WebSocket Subscriptions (Recommended):**
Subscribe to real-time quote updates for lower latency:
- Quote request status updates
- Quote updates from makers
- Deal execution updates
**Step 3 — Accept a Quote**
Call the request-deal endpoint to execute the trade with the best available quote. Required parameters:
- `deal_type` — Set to `QUOTE_REQUEST` for RFQ flow
- `cl_deal_id` — Client-assigned deal ID for tracking
- `quote_id` — The ID of the quote you''re accepting
- `quote_req_id` — The original quote request ID
- `leg_list` — Must match the quote''s instrument, price, quantity, and side
## Quote Request Lifecycle
| Status | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `NEW` | Quote request created, not yet sent to makers |
| `ACTIVE` | Quote request sent to makers, awaiting responses |
| `COMPLETED` | Quote accepted and deal executed |
| `REJECTED` | Quote request rejected |
## Quote Lifecycle
| Status | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `ACTIVE` | Quote is valid and can be accepted |
| `EXPIRED` | Quote has exceeded its TTL |
| `CANCELED` | Maker canceled the quote |
| `FILLED` | Quote was accepted and executed |
## Deal History
Use the deal history endpoint to retrieve executed trades. Deal statuses:
| Status | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `ACCEPTED` | Deal request accepted by the system. |
| `CONFIRMED` | Liquidity provider has executed the deal. |
| `SETTLED` | Deal settled and funds transferred. |
| `REJECTED` | Deal request rejected (quote expired, insufficient balance, etc.) |
## Best Practices
- **Use WebSocket subscriptions** for production systems to receive real-time quote updates
- **Monitor quote expiration times** to avoid accepting stale quotes
- **Track client IDs** (`cl_quote_req_id`, `cl_deal_id`) for reconciliation and audit purposes'

For low-latency applications, use WebSocket subscriptions instead:
- `book.{instrument_name}.{depth}` - Order book updates (10 or 50 levels)
- `ticker.{instrument_name}` - Real-time ticker updates
- `trade.{instrument_name}` - Trade feed
### Settlement and Expiry
[`public/get-expired-settlement-price`](/docs/api/rest/public-get-expired-settlement-price) provides historical settlement
prices for expired futures contracts. Use this for post-trade reconciliation and historical PnL calculations.
## Rate Limits
Public endpoints share a global rate limit pool. For market data-intensive applications:
- Use WebSocket subscriptions instead of polling REST endpoints
- Cache `public/get-instruments` responses (updates infrequently)
- Batch ticker requests by omitting `instrument_name` to get all tickers in one call
## Typical Integration Flow
**Step 1 — Bootstrap Reference Data**
Call `public/get-instruments` to load the instrument catalog. Store contract specifications locally.
**Step 2 — Subscribe to Market Data**
For real-time pricing, establish WebSocket connections and subscribe to:
- `book.{instrument_name}.10` - top 10 order book levels
- `ticker.{instrument_name}` - 24h summary stats
- `trade.{instrument_name}` - trade feed
**Step 3 — Polling Fallback**
If WebSocket connections are unavailable, poll `public/get-tickers` and `public/get-book` at reasonable intervals (e.g.,
1-5 seconds).'

name: Crypto.com Staking API
description: 'Stake crypto assets on-chain to earn rewards directly from the Exchange. Staking locks your tokens for a period,
during which you earn periodic rewards. Liquid staking tokens (e.g., CDCETH) allow you to maintain liquidity while staking.
## Staking Workflow
**1. Check Available Instruments**
Call [`private/staking/get-staking-instruments`](/docs/api/rest/private-staking-get-staking-instruments) to retrieve the
list of tokens available for staking, including minimum stake amounts and reward rates.
**2. Stake Tokens**
Call [`private/staking/stake`](/docs/api/rest/private-staking-stake) to lock tokens and begin earning rewards. The request
is processed asynchronously.
**3. Monitor Position**
Use [`private/staking/get-staking-position`](/docs/api/rest/private-staking-get-staking-position) to view your total staked
balance and [`private/staking/get-open-stake`](/docs/api/rest/private-staking-get-open-stake) to track pending stake requests.
**4. Unstake Tokens**
Call [`private/staking/unstake`](/docs/api/rest/private-staking-unstake) to unlock staked tokens. Unstaking may involve
a waiting period depending on the underlying blockchain protocol.
## Liquid Staking
Liquid staking tokens (e.g., CDCETH for staked ETH) represent staked assets and can be traded or held. Use the conversion
endpoints to move between staked tokens and liquid staking tokens:
- [`public/staking/get-conversion-rate`](/docs/api/rest/public-staking-get-conversion-rate) — get the current conversion
rate
- [`private/staking/convert`](/docs/api/rest/private-staking-convert) — convert between staked and liquid staking tokens
- [`private/staking/get-open-convert`](/docs/api/rest/private-staking-get-open-convert) — track pending conversion requests
## History
| Endpoint | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| [`private/staking/get-stake-history`](/docs/api/rest/private-staking-get-stake-history) | Past stake and unstake requests
|
| [`private/staking/get-reward-history`](/docs/api/rest/private-staking-get-reward-history) | Earned staking rewards |
| [`private/staking/get-convert-history`](/docs/api/rest/private-staking-get-convert-history) | Past conversion requests
