Important: Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile. CryptoPOS facilitates crypto-to-naira settlement but does not guarantee exchange rates or protect against market losses. Only transact with funds you can afford to expose to market movements.

We do not charge hidden fees. The naira amount shown at checkout is the amount that will be settled to your account.
