What is the Skrill Cryptocurrency Trade Service?

Don't invest unless you're prepared to lose all the money you invest. This is a high-risk investment and you should not expect to be protected if something goes wrong. Take two minutes to learn more.

The Skrill Cryptocurrency Service is currently available in selected countries only. If you don’t see a Crypto section in your account, this means you can’t perform crypto transactions.

With Skrill's Cryptocurrency trade feature, you can exchange your primary Fiat or Bitcoin balance against one of the available cryptocurrencies and profit from the price fluctuations. To start trading crypto create a Skrill account and visit the Crypto section. It's separated into three tabs you can use to manage your portfolio, view market data, and trade.
