Why Does KuCoin Set Withdrawal Limits?

When you transfer or withdraw fiat currency on KuCoin, you might see a message that your transaction exceeds the limit. This is due to two main reasons:

• Protecting user funds
• Complying with regional financial regulations

Setting limits helps secure the platform. It also gives you a clearer picture of your own transaction capabilities as you manage your money day to day.

Daily Limit vs. Per Transaction Limit

When processing fiat transactions on KuCoin, limits generally fall into two categories:

Daily Limit

This is the maximum aggregate amount you can transact in a single day, which includes:

• Depositing fiat currency
• Withdrawing fiat currency
• Purchasing crypto with your fiat balance
• Depositing proceeds from cryptocurrency sales into your fiat balance

Individual users can process up to 150,000 USDT equivalent per day, while institutional users can handle up to 500,000 USDT per day.

Per Transaction Limit

This applies to each specific transaction, defining the permissible amount range. For example:

• SEPA euro deposits: 1.01–50,000 EUR per transaction (individual users)
• Pix withdrawals of Brazilian Real (BRL): 3–200,000 BRL per transaction

Limits vary by payment method and region. For details specific to your location, log in to KuCoin to review the latest requirements.

What Happens If You Exceed or Fall Below a Limit?

Scenario 1: Amount exceeds per transaction limit
You won’t be able to submit the order (whether withdrawal or purchase); the system will block it or, in the case of deposits, issue a refund.

Scenario 2: Amount falls below the per transaction minimum
The transaction will not go through, and KuCoin may not issue a refund (especially for deposits below the minimum threshold). Be sure to check the minimum requirements before initiating a transaction.

Scenario 3: Exceeding daily aggregate limit
If you’re near your daily usage cap, new orders may be blocked by the system or scheduled for processing the next day. Check the available quota each day to avoid surprises.

What Factors Affect Limits?

• KYC verification level: Advanced verification usually unlocks higher limits
• Regional differences: Payment gateways and fiat currency regulations vary by country and affect your transaction scope
• Fiat payment provider policies: SEPA, Pix, and other partner banks may have different internal policies
