What are Ethereum and ETH?

Ethereum is a decentralised blockchain network and software development platform. Ether (ETH) is the network's native cryptocurrency.

ETH is used to pay transaction fees, often called gas fees, when people use Ethereum or the applications built on it. ETH also helps secure the network. Put simply, buying ETH means acquiring Ethereum's native asset.

How to buy ETH in the UAE

In the Crypto.com App, the basic steps are:

  1. Create your account and confirm your email.
  2. Add funds using an available payment method.
  3. Open the Crypto.com App, tap 'Buy' and search for Ethereum.
  4. Choose a payment method, enter the AED amount you want to spend and tap 'Confirm' once you have reviewed the details.

Trading is subject to account verification and eligibility.

Can you buy a fraction of ETH?

Yes. You don't need to buy a whole ETH. You can buy fractional amounts of Ethereum from as little as 10 AED in the Crypto.com App.

Which payment methods can you use in the UAE?

You can hold your fiat balance in either AED or USD. AED bank transfers are free on Crypto.com, while USD can be deposited by SWIFT transfer. You can also top up your account with a debit or credit card (Visa or Mastercard), Apple Pay and Google Pay.

Depositing AED directly by bank transfer can help you avoid foreign exchange fees when buying Ethereum. Other transaction fees and spread may apply.
