When KyberSwap reached out to its users regarding proposals for product features, one of the more popular requests we had from all of you was for a crypto price alerts tool. An alert is a notification on your mobile/email/telegram whenever the underlying token hits the price you have set.

The challenge with existing tools is that they might flood your mobile with notifications not just for alerts, but also for many other news. It is very common to miss price alerts in the pile of other notifications. At KyberSwap we have attempted to solve this problem by introducing Kyber Alerts.

Alerts can be set for all 70+ tokens available at KyberSwap. For example — You can set a price alert trigger for ETH/USD < 120 or ETH/USD > 133.

Whenever an alert is filled, notifications are sent on KyberSwap web, via email and via telegram. Alerts notifications will also be sent on KyberSwap iPhone app (coming soon). We will soon have trade buttons on these Kyber Alerts for you to instantly execute any trades based on your alert price.

How to set an alert ?

When you log into KyberSwap (No KYC needed), you’ll notice the bell alert icon at the top right. You can set basic alerts by selecting primary token and price level. For mobile app users, Alerts can be created straight via the token page or via Setting → MANAGE ALERTS.

Click NOTIFICATIONS and you can choose to be notified either via Push notifications, Telegram, Email (if logged in using email), or all 3 methods.
