Withdraw crypto from your account
In order to withdraw crypto from your account, funds used to purchase your crypto must first settle. All new deposits are subject to a 5 business day hold starting from the day they leave your bank account, and this is applicable to assets that were purchased recently. You’ll be able to withdraw your coin or token once this hold is complete.
When you make a withdrawal, you must withdraw a minimum amount. This amount depends based on the crypto you withdraw:

There is also a daily withdrawal limit of up to $10,000 CAD and a weekly withdrawal limit of up to $25,000 CAD across all coins. Some clients may have different limits based on factors such as account type, transaction history, or risk profile.
In order to complete this requirement, we ask you to take a photo of your government-issued photo identification and then take a photo of yourself. Your documentation is then reviewed to ensure that your identity matches your Wealthsimple profile.
Alternatively, if you do not have one of the acceptable government-issued photo IDs listed in the link, you may be able to use a foreign passport or health card to initiate your crypto withdrawal.
This is an important security measure put in place to protect your account. For this reason, there is no way to bypass this requirement before withdrawing crypto to an external wallet.
Withdrawing crypto is currently only available through the Wealthsimple app. Once you have successfully completed our selfie verification outlined above, follow these steps to complete your withdrawal:
- Sign into the Wealthsimple app on your mobile device
- Tap the Move tab at the bottom of the screen
- Tap Send or receive crypto
- Under Crypto, tap Send
- Enter the amount you’d like to withdraw (in cash or as a quantity)
- Paste your Wallet address
- Add in your Memo (if required)
- Select Preview transfer to review the details of the transfer (including transfer fees)
A Destination Tag or Memo isn’t always required, but it is your responsibility to determine if you need it. You can always send a small amount of crypto as a test before sending a significant amount to verify this.
Transfer fees
Crypto networks charge a fee to process transactions (known as a gas or miner fee). This fee can vary by hour, by day, and by transfer amounts. We will let you know an estimate of the network fee before you complete your withdrawal.
