Crypto.com has introduced Cash Earn, a new high-yield cash feature for U.S. customers, according to an announcement the company shared on Wednesday, October 22.
The program offers up to 5.00% annual percentage yield (APY) on cash balances, paid in Cronos (CRO) directly within the Crypto.com app.
Powered by Arc, Green Dot’s embedded finance platform, Cash Earn enables users to earn on cash held in an FDIC-insured account.
Balances are protected through a deposit sweep program by Green Dot Bank and its network of participating FDIC-insured institutions, providing coverage of up to $5 million.
Joe Anzures, General Manager, Americas and EVP of Payments at Crypto.com, said:
The new feature allows users to earn yield with no minimum balance, no caps on earnings, and no lock-up period. Funds can be transferred via ACH through the app’s Cash Account, giving customers the option to grow cash holdings while waiting to invest in crypto or stocks.
