FIAT GUIDE
Dear members of the community,
Today’s guide shows users the process of depositing and withdrawing USD on COSS.io
It’s going to be a screen by screen guide, to minimize confusion.
You will be setting up an ETANA account through COSS.io.
ETANA will be providing Custodian accounts to our users.
Do take note: You can make transfers to ETANA in your local currency,and once the deposit is cleared in the bank, ETANA will credit your Custody account with the USD equivalent of your deposit.
Unlike most exchanges that deal in FIAT, your funds will be held in that custodian account, so it has the advantage of keeping your funds safe by separating it from COSS’s account.
A kind reminder: the minimum deposit amount for Custody account is 500 USD.
- Transactions fees of Etana Custody on incoming deposits are: 0.5% and 20 USD bank fee
- Transaction fees of Etana Custody for outgoing fiat transfers (withdrawals): 25 USD flat.
- Transaction fees of COSS.IO are 20 USD for deposit and 25 USD on outgoing payments.
Instructions will be on the top, followed by the picture.

- Setting up an ETANA account
- Depositing to your ETANA (Custody) account
