Ethereum is a decentralised blockchain network and software development platform. Ether (ETH) is Ethereum's native cryptocurrency.
ETH is used to pay transaction fees, also known as gas fees, whenever people use the Ethereum network or the apps built on it. Validators also put up ETH as collateral when they help process transactions. Put simply, ETH is more than a payment asset: it helps run a programmable network for smart contracts, which are programs that run on a blockchain, and for decentralised apps.
In the Crypto.com App, the basic steps are:
Trading is subject to account verification and eligibility. Before you confirm, check the amount and payment method.
You can fund your account and buy Ethereum in the Crypto.com App using bank transfer, debit or credit card (Visa or Mastercard), Apple Pay, Google Pay or crypto deposited from another wallet.
If you deposit crypto from another wallet, use the deposit details shown in the App and make sure the asset is supported. Trying to deposit an unsupported token may result in loss. Crypto transactions are irreversible.
The minimum amount required to invest in Ethereum on Crypto.com is £1. This lets you buy a fraction of an ETH rather than a whole one.
A smaller starting amount does not remove market risk. Crypto prices can be volatile, so think about your risk appetite before deciding whether to trade.

FAQs
Ethereum is a digital asset and blockchain platform that functions both as money and as infrastructure for decentralised applications. It enables transactions, supports smart contracts, and allows users to interact with a wide range of services without relying on a central authority.
Investing in Ethereum means purchasing and holding a digital asset with the aim that its value may grow over time. Beyond price potential, Ethereum can also be used to interact with decentralised applications, make transactions, or participate in a broader blockchain ecosystem without relying on traditional intermediaries.
Download the Crypto.com App from the App Store or Google Play, create an account, and complete identity verification. Add funds via bank transfer, or use quicker methods like Apple Pay or card. Once your funds are available, you can buy Ethereum and manage it within the app.
Investing in Ethereum generally involves buying and holding it for a longer period with the expectation of price appreciation over time. It tends to require less active management and is less affected by short term fluctuations. Day trading, on the other hand, focuses on buying and selling Ethereum over short timeframes, sometimes within the same day, to take advantage of price movements. It demands more attention, experience, and risk control.
The minimum amount required to invest in Ethereum on Crypto.com is very low, you can start with as little as £1. This allows you to purchase a fraction of Ethereum and build your position gradually rather than committing a large amount upfront.
You can fund your account and invest in Ethereum on the Crypto.com App using bank transfers, debit or credit cards, Apple Pay or Google Pay, or by depositing crypto from another wallet.
