Does XAPY hold my funds?

No, XAPY does not hold or custody your funds. All your assets remain securely on the exchanges you connect to. XAPY only acts as a bridge, using API keys (with your permission) to execute trades or strategies on your behalf.

You stay in full control of your funds at all times

Does XAPY have access to withdraw my funds?

No! XAPY cannot withdraw your funds once you have enabled address whitelisting between your accounts.

Imagine when you cross-whitelist withdrawal addresses between exchanges A, B, C, D... It is like creating a closed loop. Your funds can only move within that internal circle, as the crypto exchanges' security mechanisms will not allow any API-driven withdrawals to addresses outside of those you have cross-whitelisted.

💡However, you must always secure your exchange accounts by enabling essential security mechanisms -> Read more

Please do not grant Read-Write API permissions unless cross-address whitelisting has been implemented.

What is Credit?

To ensure accurate and seamless billing and reconciliation, XAPY converts your deposited funds into Credits, based on a predefined conversion rate — which you can view here.

After each billing cycle (typically tied to the Funding Rate interval), the corresponding amount of Credits will be deducted in proportion to the profit-sharing model.

What is the minimum deposit amount required to use XAPY Platform?

There is no required minimum or maximum balance, as it depends entirely on the profits you generate.

However, XAPY recommends maintaining at least $200 in your balance to ensure that your strategies run smoothly without interruption. You can also estimate your expected returns and top up proactively to cover the service fees as they arise.

How much does it cost to use XAPY, and how do I pay?

XAPY uses a profit-sharing model, meaning you only pay when you make a profit. Profit-sharing ratio -> Check here

Since your funds remain in your own exchange accounts and XAPY has no access to move or withdraw your money, you'll need to pre-fund your XAPY account with a small balance. This balance will be used to deduct fees based on your actual profits over time.

This approach ensures transparency, fairness, and keeps you fully in control of your assets.
