TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, KOHO announced the launch of KOHO Crypto, a new offering designed to give Canadians simple, secure, and affordable access to digital assets as part of their everyday financial lives.
Built directly into the KOHO app already used by more than 2.5 million Canadians for spending, saving, and building credit, KOHO Crypto allows users to buy, hold, and manage crypto without leaving their existing money management app.
Powered by Ndax, one of Canada’s most trusted regulated crypto exchanges, KOHO Crypto combines institutional-grade security with one of the lowest fee structures available in Canada. With the ability to start trading for as little as $1, KOHO Crypto lowers the barrier to entry and makes crypto participation more accessible.
Why use KOHO Crypto?
- Among the lowest trading fees in Canada, starting at 0.5% per trade for KOHO Everything plan members (1% for Extra & Essential, 1.5% for non-members)
- Instant settlement, as users can fund purchases instantly from their KOHO balance. No need to transfer money to another account to buy crypto
- No foreign exchange fees, no hidden spreads, and all transactions priced in Canadian dollars
- Access to 20+ crypto coins, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and more
- Institutional-grade security, with the majority of assets held with qualified custodians and protected through Ndax’s regulated infrastructure
Users can fund purchases instantly from their KOHO balance or deposit Bitcoin from external wallets, creating a flexible, hybrid experience. Additional features include price alerts, recurring purchases to support dollar-cost averaging, and in-app education tools to help users make informed decisions.
“Access has been one of the biggest barriers for the average Canadian to dive into crypto,” said Daniel Eberhard, CEO of KOHO. “We’re also seeing growing demand from people who want more flexible ways to build wealth, especially at a moment when financial pressure and instability are high. By bringing crypto into an environment Canadians already trust, we’re making that access more practical and aligned with how people actually manage their money.”
As interest in digital assets grows, many Canadians remain hesitant due to concerns around complexity, trust, and cost. KOHO Crypto addresses these barriers by embedding crypto into a familiar, regulated environment, a natural extension of how Canadians already manage their money.
By bringing crypto into its core ecosystem, KOHO is positioning digital assets as part of a broader financial toolkit. KOHO Crypto makes an asset class that has traditionally been complex or out of reach more practical, expanding access for Canadians who have been underserved by traditional financial products.
