1. What is P2P trading?
P2P (Peer-to-Peer) trading is also known as C2C (Customer-to-Customer) trading in some regions. In P2P trading, the users directly buy or sell cryptocurrencies from each other on a P2P platform, exchange, or marketplace.
A P2P platform serves as the trade facilitator by providing a platform for buyers and sellers to broadcast their offers. At the same time, it can ensure the safety and timely delivery of digital assets during trade execution.
2. Are the offers I see on the P2P market provided by Binance?
No, the offers you see on the P2P market are not offered by Binance. Binance serves as a platform to facilitate P2P trading, but the offers are provided by users on an individual basis.
3. As a P2P trader, how am I protected?
All online trades are protected by escrow. When an ad is posted, the amount of crypto for the ad is automatically reserved from the seller's Funding Wallet. This means that if the seller does not release your crypto, the Customer Support agents can release the crypto to you from the reserved funds.
If you're selling, never release the assets before confirming that you have received the funds from the buyer. Please note that some payment methods buyers use are not instant and may face the risk of chargeback.
4. Can I trade without completing Identity Verification? What do I need to do before trading on P2P?
4.1. All Binance users must complete Identity Verification to access Binance products and service offerings, including P2P trading. You can access the Identity Verification from [User Center] - [Identification].
Before trading on P2P, you must enable SMS verification and at least one 2FA device (email, Binance/Google Authenticator, or security key) from [Security].
4.2. Youâll also need to add your preferred methods for receiving/sending payments. Log in to your Binance App and tap [Trade] - [P2P].
Tap [Profile] - [Payment Method].
Tap [Add a new payment method] - [All Payment Methods] to select your desired methods.
4.3. Why do I have to add a preferred payment method?
P2P transactions are trades carried out directly between two users. This means that fiat currency can only be transferred between the two users if the buyer's and seller's payment method match.
For example, User A has a debit card from ING Bank and is going to use the EUR deposited to Binance to buy crypto. In order to complete User Aâs P2P order, the system will only match sellers who also have an ING Bank account that can receive EUR transfers from User A.
4.4. Why do I need to enable 2FA?
In addition to security concerns during login, all users who trade on the P2P market need to receive payments, release coins, and perform other operations during the buying and selling process. These operations require users to enter a two-factor authentication code to verify that they are carrying out the transaction themselves.
4.5. Why do I need to complete Identity Verification?
P2P transactions are trades carried out directly between two users. After the buyer and seller are matched, both parties must verify their identities through real-name KYC (Know-Your-Customer). You must confirm the identity of the counterparty (i.e., the person sending fiat currency to your account/the account youâre sending money to) is identical to the name shown on the order details page.
5. Is P2P available on the Binance website and App?
You can buy and sell your crypto and fiat balance through Binance P2P on Binance.com and the Binance App. Please go to the P2P market for the latest supported currencies.
The P2P trading function is available on version 1.17.0 (Android)/2.6.0 (iOS) or higher. Download the Binance App here:
6. What are the transaction fees on Binance P2P?
Binance P2P charges transaction fees from makers for every completed order. Hereâs an overview of the fees rates:
| Taker | 0.1 - 0.2% on Binance Lite and the P2P Express Zone, depending on the fiat trading pairs. Click here for more details |
| Maker | 0 - 0.35%, depending on the fiat trading pairs. Click here for more details |
*Please note that some payment method service providers may charge extra transaction fees.
7. What is the 30-day completion rate?
30-day order completion rate = 1 - total number of canceled orders in the last 30 days / total number of completed orders in the last 30 days
If you are the buyer and you canceled a P2P order, this will affect your completion rate, whereas the sellerâs completion rate will not be affected.
If you are the seller and the buyer fails to accept the order or does not complete the payment, then only the buyerâs completion rate will be affected.
1. What is the minimum number of bitcoins per ad I can trade?
You can sell from a minimum of 0.01 BTC to a maximum of 5 BTC (200 BTC for merchants) per trade.
