How does OSL Pay determine the prices it offers to buy or sell Crypto-Assets?

OSL Pay obtains the base price of a Crypto-Asset using reputable, independent third-party pricing providers and then adds a spread to quote you a price to buy or sell the Crypto-Asset.

What fees does OSL Pay charge?

There are two types of fees OSL Pay may charge when processing your transaction:

  • a Network Fee; and
  • a Ramp fee

A. Network Fee

The network fee covers the costs associated with the transfer of a Crypto-Asset and is determined based on the network fee OSL Pay has previously paid on recent transactions on that blockchain. The amount of the network fee will be shown to you as a line item fee and will be identified as the "Network fee".

B. Ramp Fee

The Ramp fee covers a number of costs, such as payment processing and chargeback costs.

Spreads

We may include a spread in the asset price shown to you during your transaction. The total spread applied to your transaction will depend on multiple factors, including:

  • The coin being purchased
  • The blockchain it is being purchased on
  • The payment method used
  • The currency you choose to pay in

The total spreads that will be applied to your transaction are calculated by adding:

  • Channel Spread
  • Liquidity Spread include: Fiat, Crypto Spread
  • FX Risk Spread
  • Buffer

  • Channel Spread was 3%
  • Liquidity Spread was 0.1%
  • FX Risk Spread was 1.2%
  • Buffer was 0.2%

then the total spread would be approximately 4.5%.
