Crypto.com

Crypto.com is a cryptocurrency exchange, brokerage and payments company serving retail and institutional customers across spot, margin and derivatives trading, staking, custody, card and payment acceptance, and on-chain development on the Cronos EVM and Cronos zkEVM networks. Its public developer surface spans four programmable products: the Crypto.com Exchange API v1 (REST, WebSocket and FIX 4.4) for market data, order entry, advanced OCO/OTO/OTOCO orders, trading bots, portfolio, wallet and staking operations; the Crypto.com Pay API for merchant payment acceptance, refunds, subscriptions and invoicing with webhooks and idempotent refunds; the Crypto.com Developer Platform API for Cronos tokens, contracts, transactions, blocks, wallets, CronosID and DeFi; and an agent layer consisting of a published MCP server, an agent-first Rust CLI, and provider-authored Agent Skills for trading through the Crypto.com App and Exchange.

Reference-quality API operations across every facet — a rich contract, published governance, transparent operations, and machine-readable commercial terms.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Crypto.com the way a machine reads it — 14 machine-readable artifacts across 5 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Crypto.com scores 67.3/100 (exemplar), with a separate agent-readiness read of 67/100 (agent native). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Crypto.com

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Crypto.com. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 5

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

Crypto.com Exchange REST API v1

REST API for the Crypto.com Exchange covering public reference and market data (instruments, order book, candlesticks, trades, tickers, valuations, settlement prices, insurance ...

Crypto.com Exchange WebSocket API v1

WebSocket API for the Crypto.com Exchange, split into a Market Data stream (public channels for book, ticker, trade, candlestick, index, mark price, settlement, funding and open...

Crypto.com Exchange FIX API

FIX 4.4-based API for institutional order entry, market data and drop copy on the Crypto.com Exchange, with tags borrowed from later FIX versions. Covers Logon/Logout, NewOrderS...

Crypto.com Pay API

Merchant payments API for accepting cryptocurrency payments, issuing refunds, running subscriptions and recurring invoices, managing customers, products and sub-merchants, and r...

Crypto.com Developer Platform API

On-chain developer platform service API for Cronos EVM and Cronos zkEVM, exposing native and ERC-20 token balances and transfers, smart contract ABI and bytecode lookup, transac...

Open Collections 1

Open, tool-agnostic collections carry the same runnable value as Postman without locking you to one client — the portable, forkable form of the same exercise.

Open, tool-agnostic API collections (OpenAPI-derived and Bruno).

MCP Servers 1

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

Pricing Plans 1

Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.

Published pricing tiers and plan structures.

Rate Limits 1

Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.

Documented rate limits and quota policies.

11 limits

Event Specifications 1

Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

AsyncAPI definitions for this provider's event-driven and streaming APIs.

Security Posture 4

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Crypto.com, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
