Our system for account limits is incremental. So as you transact more with MoonPay, we’ll ask you for additional
documentation. We’ll always tell you what’s required to raise your account limits.

You can also increase your limits from the home screen of the MoonPay app.

Bank limits

Banks tend to set daily or monthly transaction limits for their customers. If you’re not sure what your spending limits might be, it’s best to ask your bank. And if they’re too low, ask if they can be adjusted.

Note:

Remember that your bank may have its own restrictions on crypto transactions.

We may also need to confirm the source of your wealth. You can read more about that in our article about source of wealth requirements.
