- Crypto.com (App)
- Binance
- Bittrex
- KuCoin
- Huobi
- OKEx
This is a summary of all of these methods,

Binance | Up to 0.1% |
Bittrex | Up to 0.35% |
KuCoin | Up to 0.1% |
Huobi | Up to 0.2% |
OKEx | Up to 0.1% |
and here is each method explained in-depth:
Crypto.com (App)
Crypto.com is a platform that offers Xfers support. This makes trading crypto more accessible from Singapore.
You canât buy DGB directly from SGD on Crypto.com. Instead, youâll need to make at least 2 trades to buy DGB.
How to buy DGB on Crypto.com
Here are the steps youâll need to do to buy DGB on Crypto.com:
- Go to Crypto Wallet
- Scroll down and find DGB
- Click on âBuy DGBâ
- Select your payment method
- Confirm the trade
#1 Go to Crypto Wallet
Youâll need to access your crypto wallet on the Crypto.com app.

This can be done by tapping on the central icon and going to âCrypto Walletâ.
#2 Scroll down and find DGB
If you donât have any DGB in your Crypto.com wallet, youâll need to scroll down to find the currency.

You can use the search function to find DGB, as there are quite a lot of currencies available on the app!

#3 Click on âBuy DGBâ
You will be on the DGB price page. Youâll need to tap on âBuy DGBâ to make the trade.

#4 Select your payment method
Since you are using the Crypto.com App, you can only buy DGB at the prevailing market rate.
This is different from the Crypto.com Exchange, which allows you to trade DGB with other traders.
There are 3 payment methods that you can use to buy DGB on Crypto.com:
1. Debit or credit card
You can use either a credit or debit card to purchase DGB directly.

This would probably the most efficient way of buying DGB. However, you will be charged a 3.5% fee if youâre from Singapore!
The fees are almost as expensive as buying from Coinhako.
Due to this high fee, it may not be worth buying DGB using your credit or debit card.
2. Crypto wallet
If you have other cryptocurrencies in your crypto wallet, you can use this to trade for SHIB.

You can only buy DGB from either CRO or BTC.
3. Fiat wallet
The final way that you can buy DGB on Crypto.com is via a fiat wallet.

Fiat money is government-issued currency that is not backed by a physical commodity, such as gold or silver, but rather by the government that issued it.
Investopedia
You can only buy DGB from either a EUR or AUD fiat account.
This is because there are only 8 cryptocurrencies that you can purchase from Xfers:
If you want to buy DGB with SGD, here are the steps that youâll need to do:
- Buy CRO or BTC with SGD from your fiat wallet
- Purchase DGB from CRO or BTC in your crypto wallet (method 2)
#5 Confirm the trade
When you confirm the details, Crypto.com will lock in the exchange rate for 15 seconds.
Once you confirm the trade, DGB will be credited to your account.
Verdict
Here are the fees that youâll incur with Crypto.com:
Type of Fee | Amount |
---|---|
Deposit Fees | None |
Trading Fees | None |
SGD Withdrawal Fee | 0.4% per withdrawal (Xfers) |
The fees when trading with Crypto.com seem to be lower! However the spreads can be quite high.
A spread in trading is the difference between the buy (offer) and sell (bid) prices quoted for an asset.
IG Trading
When you make multiple trades on the Crypto.com app, you may lose some money due to the spread!
These costs can be hard to keep track, but it is something youâll need to consider.
The Crypto.com App is very convenient as you can buy DGB with SGD. For the other methods, you arenât able to do so, as these platforms do not support SGD.
The remaining exchanges do not support SGD
For the next few methods, they do not allow you to deposit SGD into their exchanges.
This means that youâll have to buy a cryptocurrency from one exchange, and then send it to these exchanges.
The currency that you should buy is Bitcoin or Ethereum, which would have the most number of trading pairs.
However, youâll need to consider the withdrawal fees that youâll incur when sending your crypto on the blockchain.
Depending on the fees, it can be really hefty!
You can consider using Geminiâs Active Trader, which charges a rather low 0.35% trading fee. You are able to purchase either BTC or ETH from Gemini.

After that, you can send your BTC or ETH to any of the exchanges below. You will not be charged any withdrawal fees for up to 10 withdrawals per month.

Binance
Binance is one of the largest crypto exchanges in the world. You are able to trade many cryptocurrencies on their platform.
You canât buy DGB using a credit card, nor directly from SGD. As such, youâll need to use the altcoin method to buy this currency.
First, youâll need to buy crypto from another exchange, and then deposit it into Binance.

The best currencies to deposit are BTC or USDT. This is because they have the most trading pairs available.
When you deposit your crypto, youâll need to make sure that the address youâre sending to is correct.
If not, your crypto may be lost forever!
You can consider using the Binance P2P platform too
Instead of sending crypto from another platform, you can consider using Binanceâs P2P platform as well.

This platform allows you to buy crypto from SGD, such as:
Using this method will help you to save on sending fees. However, there may be scammers that are on the platform.
As such, youâll need to be very careful with who youâre trading with!

As such, you should consider trying to find a way to reduce your costs as much as possible!
Bittrex
