Altify's OTC Desk allows you to trade large volumes of cryptocurrency discreetly, at a market-leading price, and without the complexity of public exchange order books.
What Is an OTC Desk?
OTC stands for over-the-counter. Rather than placing orders on a public exchange where other market participants can see your activity, OTC trades happen privately between you and a dedicated Altify trader.
This matters when you are dealing with larger trade values. Placing a significant buy or sell order on a public exchange can move the market against you, resulting in a worse trade price than what you could get by dealing with a professional OTC trader.
What Altify Offers
Altify's OTC desk gives you access to over 20,000 cryptocurrencies across crypto-to-crypto and crypto-to-fiat pairs, with a minimum order size of $25,000. You deal directly with a human trader — not an algorithm — and receive a single all-in quote before committing to anything.
What You Get
- Direct access to a pro trader: Speak directly with our trading desk to confirm the asset, ticket size, settlement time and price. You receive professional, personalised service from start to finish.
- All-inclusive pricing: Receive a single all-in quote for orders over $25,000. No extra transaction fees and no surprises — you know the exact price before the trade executes.
- Forward rates: We can arrange same-day and T+1 to T+4 trades, helping you manage cash flow or banking delays all while staying hedged.
- Secure settlement: All settlements take place to your approved bank account or crypto wallet you register at onboarding.
-
Multi-currency support: Along with crypto-to-crypto trades, we support fiat-to-crypto trades across USD, EUR, GBP, and ZAR.
How It Works
Once onboarded, a dedicated OTC desk channel via WhatsApp or Telegram will be created between you and the Altify OTC desk. Contact your trader directly to get a price on any asset. Your trader will walk you through the price and settlement terms before any trade is agreed. Once agreed, settlement takes place to your chosen cryptocurrency wallet or bank account.
Who Is This For?
Altify's OTC desk is designed for high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), FX desks, financial institutions, and corporate clients who are interested in buying and selling larger volumes of crypto efficiently, discreetly, and without market disruption.
