Listing on Crypto.com
All new tokens that are planning to get listed on Crypto.com can do it by listing on a fundraising platform operated by the exchange. It is dubbed “The Syndicate”. The platform doesn’t take any fees for listing. Vice versa, it allows token projects to raise funds and build a strong community thanks to being introduced on the platform that already has a well-established reputation and a lot of users from many countries of the world.
The listing on The Syndicate can help to increase the utility of tokens as they can be spent via Crypto.com cards, provided as loan collaterals, and used on the Crypto.com Pay network.
Projects that will be chosen for listing on The Syndicate will have the possibility to allocate their tokens for sale with a discount of up to 50%. The proceeds from token sales will go directly to the projects.
Crypto.com’s score metrics
When choosing a venue for listing, it is crucial to check its reputation and general rank in comparison to other exchanges. A good choice is to check how CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, and Nomics rate the exchange.
CoinGecko uses Trust Score, a rating algorithm evaluating the legitimacy of an exchange’s trading volume. Trust Score is calculated on a range of metrics such as liquidity, the scale of operations, cybersecurity score, and more. Crypto.com’s Trust Score is a max. 10. Only 10 out of more than 500 cryptocurrency platforms have a Trust Score of 10.
CoinMarketCap’s Exchange Score is based on the following factors:
- Web Traffic
- Average Liquidity & Volume
- the Confidence that the volume reported by an exchange is legitimate. Weights are assigned to the above-mentioned factors and a score from 0.0 to 10.0 is given to the Spot Exchange.
Crypto.com’s Exchange Score is 5.6.
Nomics’ metric is called Impact Score – and represents an exchange’s influence on the price of cryptocurrencies it trades. The score is a combination of web traffic, volume, and other factors.
Crypto.com’s Impact Score is 7.50.
The second Nomics metric, called Transparency Rating is B (good). Nomics explains the purpose of these scores as rating cryptocurrency exchanges by their willingness to provide auditable history.
CryptoCompare has established the notion of Top-Tier volume whereby investors can segment the market into higher and lower-risk volumes (A is the best and E is the worst grade).

Listing requirements
When you apply for a listing on centralized exchanges, the legal team will examine your documentation, which usually includes the certificate of incorporation, legal id of team members, whitepaper, etc. In certain cases (like stable coins), they may require additional documents. You will be asked to provide key information about your token, team, and community. This information should persuade the exchange team that your token will be successful after listing. Take the time to do it well.
The project review consists of several key points:
- Project Introduction: The token issuer should write a short summary of what the project does or fill out a form providing necessary project details and information for review by the exchange’s team.
- Token Overview: This includes chain type (BSC, ERC, TRC, etc.), blockchain explorer, smart contract address, use of token, etc.
- Token Economics and Fundraising: You will be asked to provide information about token distribution, token unlock schedule, or conducted token sales.
- Marketing Strategy and Community: To check the user engagement and quality of business partnerships, the exchange will check community hubs with their main geographies. They check the website, Twitter, and Telegram channels, including the number of followers and likes per post. Projects should also introduce strategic partnerships with expected results.
- Project Team: Introduce your team members with bio descriptions of the Founder/CEO and core members, including Linkedin profile links..
- Listing Plan: Outline your plan for listing the token. If it’s not your debut, you’ll need to provide the exchange team with information on your existing markets and trading volumes on them.
- Market Maker: You must specify a market maker who works with you and provides initial liquidity during the listing.
By addressing these points thoroughly, you increase the probability of the approval and entry into negotiations.
