What are the ways to earn cryptocurrency on CEX.IO?

On CEX.IO, you can earn rewards on cryptocurrency using CEX.IO Staking and CEX.IO Savings services.

CEX.IO Staking

The CEX.IO Staking service empowers users to earn staking rewards regardless of their technical knowledge and crypto experience in cryptocurrency staking. To start earning staking rewards, you just need to store stake-able assets in your CEX.IO account, and we will do the rest. You will receive staking rewards as long as stake-able assets are stored in your balance.

The reward distribution is automated, you don’t need to claim it or redeem it after every staking period. When you stake cryptocurrency on CEX.IO, staking rewards are distributed once a month. There is no limitation on how many assets you can stake on CEX.IO. Find out more about CEX.IO Staking and current staking rewards for different cryptocurrencies on the Staking page.

CEX.IO Savings

CEX.IO Savings is a service that allows you to earn rewards by lending cryptocurrencies. CEX.IO features two crypto savings accounts: flexible and locked. A flexible savings account means that you can withdraw deposited funds and earned rewards anytime. This option is the fastest way to earn cryptocurrency among supported ones since you earn rewards every day.

When you use a locked savings account, you lock your funds for 30-90 days. The longer the period, the more rewards you will be able to earn. Withdrawal of deposited funds and earned rewards is available only after the selected unlock date. Locked savings offers higher rewards than flexible savings. More information about CEX.IO Savings can be found on the Savings page.


What tokens can I use to earn rewards on crypto?

CEX.IO Savings and CEX.IO Staking have a different set of supported cryptocurrencies and different approaches to adding new assets.

CEX.IO Staking is supported for cryptocurrencies that use proof of stake (PoS) or similar consensus mechanisms (i.e. delegated proof of stake). Staking is an integral part of these blockchain networks. So the criterion of whether or not a token is suitable for staking depends on the blockchain network, not the platform. With CEX.IO, you can start contributing to PoS and other networks through staking, earning staking rewards. You can find the list of cryptocurrencies available for staking on CEX.IO on our Staking page.

Currently, you can open a flexible savings account only for stablecoins. Log into your CEX.IO account and go to the Savings page to see all assets supported for savings. We are working on expanding the list of supported cryptocurrencies and adding new features to the CEX.IO Savings.
