Check the fee schedules on Coinbase, Kraken, Crypto.com before you trade — they differ.

Most major exchanges let you buy USD or USDT with a card, then swap into CRO on Coinbase. Direct card-to-CRO depends on the exchange and your country — check that venue’s payment options.

Coinbase yes, Binance no. CRO trades spot on Coinbase, but Binance is not among the venues listing it today.

That depends on the exchange, not on CRO itself — each venue serves different regions and runs its own verification. Check the exchange’s country list before signing up.
