IG launches the purchase of real cryptocurrencies with a 0.5% commission: is this offer worth it?
Original headlineIG lance l'achat de véritables cryptomonnaies à 0,5 % de commission : que vaut cette offre ?
Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
IG has begun offering direct spot cryptocurrency trading through its app at a flat 0.5% commission, with no custody or withdrawal fees. The broker, known primarily for contracts for difference, is positioning the pricing among the lowest on the market as it moves into physical crypto ownership. The offer matters because it gives IG's existing client base a low-cost route into real tokens rather than synthetic exposure, intensifying fee competition among established brokers. What to watch next is whether rivals match the 0.5% rate and how quickly IG expands the lineup of tradable tokens beyond its initial list.
