You may want to buy some Dogecoin as a Singaporean. However, not all crypto exchanges allow you to trade in DOGE!

So how do you actually go about doing it?

Here are some crypto exchanges you can access from Singapore that offers DOGE:

Note: With the recent rulings by MAS on Binance (International), you are no longer able to purchase crypto from SGD on their platform. This means that both the P2P trading and purchasing crypto from a SGD credit card are currently unavailable.

And here is each method explained in-depth:

Coinhako

Coinhako is the most straightforward way of buying Dogecoin in Singapore.

This is because you can directly buy DOGE from SGD!

How to buy Dogecoin on Coinhako

Here are the steps that you’ll need to do to buy Dogecoin on Coinhako:

  1. Deposit your SGD into your SGD wallet
  2. Go to ‘Trade’
  3. Look for DOGE and click on Buy
  4. Select the amount of SGD you wish to use to purchase DOGE
  5. Verify the transfer

#1 Deposit your SGD into your SGD wallet

To start buying crypto on Coinhako, you will need to fund your SGD wallet first. There are 2 ways you can do so:

  1. Xfers
  2. Direct FAST transfer

In the past, you could only use Xfers to deposit your funds into Coinhako.

Xfers Account

Xfers acts as a middleman between the crypto exchange and your bank account.

However, you are now able to transfer your funds directly to your SGD wallet via FAST!

Coinhako FAST Transfer

Don’t forget to include your unique deposit code in the comments section of the transfer. This will help Coinhako to match the deposit to your account!

You do not incur fees when depositing via FAST. Meanwhile you will incur a 0.55% fee for each deposit via Xfers!

FAST is the more cost effective way to deposit your SGD into Coinhako.

#2 Go to ‘Trade’

On Coinhako’s platform, you’ll need to go to the ‘Trade‘ section.

Coinhako Trade Platform

This is where you are able to buy and sell crypto on Coinhako.

When you are making any trade, you can’t determine the price that you wish to buy or sell at. Coinhako will try to match it to the prevailing market rate when you make the trade.

#3 Look for DOGE and click on Buy

You’ll need to scroll down to find DOGE, and then click on ‘Buy‘.

Coinhako DOGE Buy and Sell

#4 Select the amount of SGD you wish to use to purchase DOGE

You will need to select the amount of SGD that you wish to use for your trade. The amount of DOGE that you receive will be based on the prevailing market rates.

Coinhako Buy DOGE Singapore

Coinhako has a minimum of $45 SGD for each trade that you make.

For every trade that you make on Coinhako, you are charged a 1% fee.

Coinhacko DOGE Trading Fee

However if you use the promo code ‘COINGECKO‘, you will reduce your fees to 0.8%.

Coinhacko DOGE Coingecko Promo Code

Any small reduction in fees would help to increase your returns!

It is also possible to buy DOGE using your credit or debit card. However, you will be charged an additional 3% by Coinhako’s payment service provider!

It is really not worth the fees of using your debit card to make the trade, especially when FAST transfers are free!

#5 Verify the transfer

Once you’re done, you will need to verify your trade.

The DOGE coin will be credited into your account when the trade is completed!

Verdict

Here are the fees that you’ll incur when trading with Coinhako:

Type of FeeAmount
Deposit FeesNone (FAST),
0.55% (Xfers)
Minimum Trade
Amount
$0.5
Trading Fees1% for any trade
(0.8% if you use the
promo code COINGECKO)
Withdrawal Fee (SGD)$2 per withdrawal

It is definitely more cost effective to deposit into your SGD wallet via FAST compared to Xfers. You will incur unnecessary fees if you do so with Xfers!

Another thing you’ll need to take note is the withdrawal fee of $2. If you are withdrawing out small amounts, it would not be worth this fee!

Overall, Coinhako has pretty high fees. However the convenience of buying DOGE instantly with SGD helps to make up for it!

Tokenize

Tokenize is a centralised exchange that is based in Singapore and Malaysia.

Their exchange allows you to trade 40+ different currencies directly from SGD!

Tokenize Number of Currencies June 2021

Here’s how you can buy DOGE on Tokenize:

  1. Deposit your funds
  2. Go to ‘Market’
  3. Select SGD/DOGE as your trading pair
  4. Select the type of order and your trade amount
  5. Make the trade

#1 Deposit your funds

To start trading on Tokenize, you’ll need to deposit your SGD into your wallet first.

However, it can be a bit hard to navigate around Tokenize’s site. You’ll need to see go to the top right-hand corner which has your name, and select ‘Wallets‘.

Tokenize Wallets

After that, you’ll need to scroll down all the way to your Fiat Balance. You’ll see the amount of SGD and USD that you have with Tokenize.

Tokenize Fiat Balance

You’ll need to click on ‘Deposit’, and you can deposit your funds via 2 ways:

  1. Xfers Direct Transfer
  2. Swap from XSGD wallet
Tokenize Deposit Methods SGD

You’ll be asked to select the amount you want to deposit from your Xfers account, along with the fee.

Tokenize Deposit Via Xfers

You’ll be charged a 0.55% fee if you use Xfers Direct Charge.

Tokenize will deduct the balance from your Xfers account, and it will be credited into your SGD wallet.

#2 Go to ‘Market’

After making your deposit, you can start trading your SGD for crypto.

You’ll need to select ‘Market‘ from the dashboard.

Tokenize Market Dashboard

#3 Select SGD/DOGE as your trading pair

There are a variety of SGD trading pairs you can choose from.

Tokenize Trading Pairs

You can use the search bar to find the SGD/DOGE trading pair.

Tokenize SGD DOGE Trading Pair

#4 Select the type of order and your trade amount

There are 2 types of orders you can make with Tokenize:

  1. Limit
  2. Market

Limit orders will allow you to determine the price of DOGE that you wish to pay.

Tokenize DOGE Limit Order

This gives you more control over the price that you want to pay for each dogecoin.

Meanwhile, market orders will purchase DOGE at the current market price.

Tokenize DOGE Market Order

If you use this method, you will be able to fill your order almost immediately.

However, what I don’t like about market orders is that you won’t be able to see the trading fee that you’ll need to pay beforehand.

Once you’ve decided the type of trade you wish to make, you can choose the quantity of DOGE that you wish to buy.

#5 Make the trade

After you’ve confirmed your trade, your DOGE will be credited into your wallet.

Verdict

Here are the fees that you’ll need to pay when trading on Tokenize:

Fee TypeAmount
Deposit Fees0.55%
Trading Fees1%,
(min. $1)
Withdrawal Fee0.55%

Even though Tokenize said that its trading fee is 0.80%, it is actually 1% (min $1) when you trade DOGE.

However, the fee is still 0.80% when you trade other currencies like BTC or ETH.

This trading fee is rather high compared to other platforms. Moreover, the withdrawal fee of 0.55% may be even higher compared to Coinhako.

You’ll need to decide if paying these extra fees is worth it to gain access to a greater variety of currencies!

FTX

FTX is a cryptocurrency trading platform that is based in California.

They offer one of the cheapest fees when it comes to trading crypto!

Here’s what you need to buy DOGE on FTX:

  1. Deposit BTC, USDT or USD into FTX
  2. Select a trading pair with DOGE
  3. Enter the details of your order

#1 Deposit BTC, USDT or USD into FTX

While FTX supports SGD, there are no SGD trading pairs with cryptocurrency on the platform.

DOGE has trading pairs with these 3 currencies on FTX:

  1. BTC
  2. USDT
  3. USD

You may want to deposit BTC or USDT into FTX, since DOGE has trading pairs with these currencies.

You’ll need to go to ‘Wallet‘,

FTX Select Wallet

and then deposit BTC or USDT into FTX.

FTX Deposit BTC or USDT

If possible, you can deposit USDT via the TRC20 network which will help to save on your withdrawal fees!

You can read my guide on depositing fiat currencies from Singapore to FTX to find out more about how you can deposit USD to FTX.

#2 Select a trading pair with DOGE

Once you’ve deposited BTC or USDT, you can start to trade them for DOGE.

You’ll need to go to the hamburger icon on the left hand side of FTX’s platform,

FTX Platform Hamburger Icon

and then search for ‘DOGE‘ under Spot.

FTX Doge Trading Pairs

Futures are a rather complicated product, and you should only be trading in futures if you understand it well!

#3 Enter the details of your order

You can make 7 different orders on FTX:

  1. Limit
  2. Market
  3. Stop market
  4. Stop limit
  5. Trailing stop
  6. Take profit
  7. Take profit limit

After selecting your order type, you’ll need to:

  1. Select the amount of BTC you want to buy 1 DOGE at
  2. Select the amount of DOGE you want to buy
FTX Buy DOGE From BTC

Once your order has been processed, DOGE will be credited into your account.

Verdict

FTX charges up to 0.07% (for taker fees) on their platform. This is one of the cheapest fees that you’ll be able to receive for Spot trading!

Due to its rather low fees, FTX can be a platform that you can consider if you want to reduce your costs.

Crypto.com (App)

Crypto.com is another platform that offers Xfers support. This does make trading crypto more accessible from Singapore.

However, unlike Coinhako, you are unable to buy DOGE directly from your SGD!

Instead, you’ll need to make at least 2 trades to purchase DOGE.

How to buy Dogecoin on Crypto.com

Here are the steps you’ll need to do to buy Dogecoin on Crypto.com:

  1. Go to Crypto Wallet
  2. Scroll down and find DOGE
  3. Click on ‘Buy DOGE’
  4. Select your payment method
  5. Confirm the trade

#1 Go to Crypto Wallet

You’ll need to access your crypto wallet on the Crypto.com app.

Crypto.com Crypto Wallet

This can be done by tapping on the central icon and going to ‘Crypto Wallet‘.

#2 Scroll down and find DOGE

If you don’t have any DOGE in your Crypto.com wallet, you’ll need to scroll down to find the currency.

Crypto.com Crypto Wallet DOGE

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

Crypto.com App Use Search Function

#3 Click on ‘Buy DOGE’

You will be on the DOGE price page. You’ll need to tap on ‘Buy DOGE‘ to make the trade.

Crypto.com Buy DOGE

#4 Select your payment method

Similar to Coinhako, you cannot decide on the rate that you wish to buy DOGE at. Instead, it will be done at the prevailing market rate.

There are 3 payment methods that you can use to buy DOGE on Crypto.com:

1. Debit or credit card

You can use either a credit or debit card to purchase DOGE directly.

Crypto.com Credit Card Payment

This would probably the most efficient way of buying DOGE. However, you will be charged a 3.5% fee if you’re from Singapore!

The fees are almost as expensive as buying from Coinhako.

Due to this high fee, it may not be worth buying DOGE 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 DOGE.

Crypto.com Buy DOGE Crypto Wallet

You can trade CRO or BTC from your crypto wallet to buy DOGE.

3. Fiat wallet

The final way that you can buy DOGE on Crypto.com is via a fiat wallet.

Crypto.com Buy DOGE From 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 DOGE from either a EUR or AUD fiat account.

Unlike Coinhako, you are unable to purchase DOGE via Xfers!

This is because there are only 8 cryptocurrencies that you can purchase from Xfers:

  1. BTC
  2. ETH
  3. BCH
  4. LTC
  5. XRP
  6. CRO
  7. BNB
  8. XSGD

If you want to buy DOGE with SGD, here are the steps that you’ll need to do:

  1. Buy CRO or BTC from SGD in your fiat wallet (Xfers)
  2. Purchase DOGE using CRO or BTC from your crypto wallet (method 2)

However, you may want to take note of the minimum amount for each cryptocurrency, before making the purchase!

For Dogecoin, the minimum amount that you can purchase is 290 DOGE.

Crypto.com DOGE Minimum Amount

#5 Confirm the trade

When you confirm the details, Crypto.com will lock in the exchange rate for 15 seconds.

Crypto.com DOGE Lock Rate

Once you confirm the trade, the DOGE will be credited to your account.

Verdict

Here are the fees that you’ll incur with Crypto.com:

Type of FeeAmount
Deposit FeesNone
Trading FeesNone
Withdrawal Fee0.4% per withdrawal (Xfers)

The fees when paying 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 you’ll need to consider.

It may be slightly more troublesome compared to buying DOGE with Coinhako. This is because you will need to make 2 trades instead of one if you wish to use SGD.

However, one advantage is that you can earn interest on your DOGE with Crypto Earn.

Crypto.com (Exchange)

If you are looking for a more cost effective way of buying other crypto using Crypto.com, you can consider using their exchange platform instead.

Crypto.com Exchange Platform 1

This platform is separate from the app, and you’ll need to create a separate account for it.

If you are interested in signing up for a Crypto.com Exchange account and stake at least 1,000 CRO, you can earn at least $10 USD worth of CRO!

For this exchange, you aren’t able to trade your SGD for any of the currencies.

Instead, there are 3 main trading pairs that you can use:

  1. BTC
  2. USDT
  3. CRO
Crypto.com Exchange Trading Pairs

So how do you go about buying DOGE on Crypto.com’s Exchange platform?

#1 Buy CRO or BTC directly from SGD

On the Crypto.com app, you can buy either CRO or BTC directly from your Xfers wallet.

Crypto.com Buy Crypto From Fiat Wallet

The crypto will be credited into your Crypto.com app wallet.

#2 Transfer your CRO or BTC to Crypto.com Exchange

After you have received your CRO or BTC, you will need to transfer it to the Crypto.com Exchange platform.

The transfer between the app and the exchange platforms is free.

On the currency’s page, you’ll need to go to ‘Transfer‘,

Crypto.com App Transfer To Exchange

click on ‘Withdraw‘,

Crypto.com App Withdraw

and then tap on ‘Crypto.com Exchange‘.

Crypto.com App Transfer To Crypto.com Exchange

After selecting the amount, the CRO will be deposited in your Exchange account.

Crypto.com Transfer Funds To Exchange

#3 Select CRO/DOGE as your trading pair

On the Exchange platform, you’ll need to go to ‘Spot‘,

Crypto.com Exchange Spot

and select your trading pair.

Crypto.com Exchange CRO Trading Pairs

You can choose to use the BTC/DOGE trading pair if you bought BTC instead of CRO.

#4 Select the amount and make the trade

You can choose between 4 different types of trades on Crypto.com Exchange:

  1. Limit
  2. Market
  3. Stop Limit
  4. Stop Loss

After selecting the price and the amount that you wish to buy, you can make the trade.

One thing I do not like about Crypto.com’s Exchange platform is that you are unable to see the fee that you’ll incur.

Verdict

The advantage of buying on the Crypto.com Exchange is that you are able to place limit orders. Meanwhile, the Crypto.com App only allows you to buy at the prevailing rate.

The trading fees range from 0.10% to 0.40%.

Crypto.com Exchange Rate June 2021

If you are looking to buy DOGE frequently, this method may be slightly more cost effective compared to buying via the app!

Gemini (Exchange)

Gemini is another platform that allows you to buy DOGE directly from SGD. However the fees can be quite high!

First, you’ll need to deposit your funds via Xfers.

Gemini Enter Deposit Amount

After that, you can use the Gemini Exchange to buy DOGE immediately.

Gemini Exchange Buy DOGE

Verdict

Here are the fees that you’ll incur when trading on Gemini’s Exchange:

Trade Amount (SGD)Trading Fee (SGD)
≀ $15.00$1.50
> $15.00 but ≀ $35.00$2.00
> $35.00 but ≀ $70.00$2.75
> $70.00 but ≀ $250.00$4.00
> $250.001.49% of your Web Order value

It is definitely not worth trading any amount that is below $250 SGD.

Moreover, you can only buy DOGE from USD on Gemini’s Active Trader platform.

Gemini Active Trader DOGE USD Trading Pair

This is similar to buying ENJ and AAVE on the platform too.

Although Gemini has a great user interface, it may not be the most cost effective option to buy DOGE from Singapore!

Nevertheless, Gemini allows you to earn interest on DOGE.

Gemini Earn Dogecoin APY

If you intend to buy and hold DOGE, then you can consider earning some interest on your tokens.

AAX

Atom Asset Exchange (AAX) was founded in 2018, and is based in Hong Kong.

This exchange allows you to deposit SGD into your account. However, you can only trade SGD into BTC or USDT!

This means that you’ll need to make 2 conversions before you can get DOGE.

Here’s what you need to do to buy DOGE on AAX:

  1. Deposit SGD into AAX
  2. Use the Exchange feature to exchange SGD to USDT
  3. Find the DOGE/USDT trading pair
  4. Make the trade

#1 Deposit SGD into AAX

First, you’ll need to deposit SGD into your AAX account.

AAX Deposit SGD

You will need to deposit a minimum of $50 into your account. However, if you deposit less than $1.5k, you will incur a $35 deposit fee!

#2 Use the Exchange feature to exchange SGD to USDT

Once you have your SGD into your account, you’ll need to go to ‘Buy Crypto → Exchange‘.

AAX Go To Exchange Platform

The Exchange platform allows you to buy USDT from your SGD.

AAX Exchange Feature SGD to BTC or USDT

Even though you can buy BTC too, AAX currently does not have a BTC/DOGE trading pair! As such, you can only buy DOGE from USDT.

AAX does not charge any fees for this conversion. However, the exchange rate may be slightly less favourable compared to the market rate.

#3 Find the DOGE/USDT trading pair

Once you’ve exchanged your SGD for USDT, you can now go to AAX’s trading platform.

AAX Trading Platform

This can be done by selecting ‘Spot’ on the menu.

AAX Select Spot

After that, you’ll need to select a trading pair with DOGE.

AAX DOGE USDT Trading Pair

#4 Make the trade

After selecting DOGE/USDT as your trading pair, you’ll need to decide on the order type:

  1. Limit
  2. Market
  3. Stop order
AAX Buy DOGE from USDT Enter Details

You’ll also need to enter the details of the trade you wish to make.

This includes:

  1. The price of USDT you want to buy DOGE at
  2. The amount of DOGE you wish to buy

Once the trade has been filled, DOGE will be credited into your account.

Verdict

Here are the fees and minimums when you’re trading on AAX:

Deposit Minimum$50
Deposit Fees$35 if deposit < $1500,
none if deposit ≄ $1500
Trading FeesUp to 0.1%
Withdrawal Minimum$150
Withdrawal Fees0.3% (Minimum $10)
Sending FeesDepends on currency

If you want to save on the deposit fees, you’ll have to deposit at least $1.5k into your AAX account each time!

The trading fees are as competitive as Binance (up to 0.1%), and AAX has the added advantage of supporting fiat currencies like SGD.

However, you’ll still need to make 2 trades to get DOGE!

I would think that AAX is suitable only if you intend to trade a large amount of crypto.

Coinbase

Coinbase only allows you to purchase DOGE via your debit or credit card.

Coinbase Buy DOGE From SGD

However, Coinbase charges you a 3.99% credit card fee. This can be extremely hefty!

Verdict

Coinbase is the least cost effective way of buying DOGE in Singapore. You are charged a really high fee of 3.99%.

Moreover, you aren’t able to sell your crypto for SGD. You can’t withdraw from Coinbase in Singapore either, as they no longer support Xfers.

As such, you should only use this platform as a last resort!

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 you’ll have to buy a cryptocurrency from one exchange, and then send it to these exchanges.

The currencies that you can buy include:

This is because these 3 currencies have the most number of trading pairs with other cryptocurrencies! You should be able to buy rare altcoins with either BTC, ETH or USDT as a trading pair.

However, you’ll need to consider the withdrawal fees that you’ll incur when sending your crypto on the blockchain.

Depending on the fees, it can be really hefty!

Here are 2 ways that you can transfer cryptocurrency to these exchanges:

#1 Use Gemini Active Trader to send BTC or ETH for free (up to 10 withdrawals per month)

You can consider using Gemini’s Active Trader, which charges a rather low 0.35% trading fee. You are able to purchase either BTC or ETH from Gemini.

Gemini SGD Trading Pairs

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.

Gemini No Withdrawal Fee

#2 Transfer USDT over the TRC20 network to an exchange that supports such deposits

USDT is a rather ‘universal’ stablecoin as most exchanges have USDT trading pairs with the cryptocurrency that you want to buy.

If you are using the ERC20 network to transfer USDT, the withdrawal fees are rather high. It can go up to 40 USDT for a single withdrawal!

However, if you use the TRC20 network to send USDT, such transfers are much cheaper due to the lower congestion. Platforms like XanPool or Liquid even allow you to withdraw USDT for free via the TRC20 network!

The main thing you’ll need to make sure of is that the exchange you’re sending to accepts the TRC20 version of USDT.

Huobi Choose TRC20 For USDT

You can view my guide on how to buy USDT to find out more.

Kraken

Kraken offers quite a few trading pairs on their platform. However, they do not allow you to buy any crypto directly from SGD.

As such, you’ll need to deposit a cryptocurrency onto their platform.

Alternatively, you can deposit other fiat currencies to make the trade too.

How to buy Dogecoin on Kraken

Here’s what you need to do to buy Dogecoin on Kraken:

  1. Deposit a currency into Kraken (fiat or crypto)
  2. Go to ‘Trade’
  3. Select a trading pair with DOGE
  4. Enter the amount that you wish to pay
  5. Execute the order

#1 Deposit a currency into Kraken (fiat or crypto)

To start trading on Kraken, you’ll need to deposit either a fiat currency or cryptocurrency onto the platform.

You’ll need to go to the funding tab on Kraken.

Kraken Funding Tab

From there, you can deposit a wide variety of fiat or cryptocurrencies:

Kraken Deposit Balances
FiatCrypto
AUDBTC
CADETH
EURLTC
GBPXRP
CHFUSDT
USD
JPY

If you have any of the fiat currencies, you are able to do a wire transfer.

You may incur some fees when you are transferring your funds to Kraken!

#2 Go to ‘Trade’

Once your funds have been sent to Kraken, you can start trading.

You’ll need to go to the ‘Trade‘ tab to start buying your DOGE.

Kraken Trade Tab

#3 Select a trading pair with DOGE

If you are using Kraken for the first time, you will be in the ‘Simple‘ interface.

Kraken Trade Simple Interface 1 1

If you wish to use this interface, you’ll need to select your trading pair above.

Kraken Choose Trading Pair On Simple

You can choose to go to the Intermediate interface too, where you can select your preferred trading pair.

Kraken Trade Intermediate Interface

From there, you can select a trading pair with DOGE.

Kraken DOGE Trading Pairs

There are only 4 trading pairs where you can buy Dogecoin on Kraken!

#4 Enter the amount that you wish to pay

After selecting your preferred trading pair, you’ll need to enter the details of your trade.

Kraken By DOGE From BTC

#5 Execute the order

Once your trade is executed, the DOGE will be credited into your account.

Verdict

Here are the fees that you’ll incur when using Kraken:

FeesAmount
Trading feesUp to 0.26%
Withdrawal fee (crypto)Depends on currency
Withdrawal fee (fiat)Depends on currency

The fees are pretty reasonable, and there is no minimum fee as well!

However, the fees that you incur on Kraken are slightly higher compared to Binance or Huobi.

Nevertheless, Kraken is still an exchange platform that you can consider buying DOGE from.

Binance

Binance is one of the largest crypto exchanges in the world. You are able to trade many cryptocurrencies on their platform.

However, you are unable to buy DOGE directly using SGD too.

How to buy Dogecoin on Binance

Here are 2 ways that you can buy Dogecoin on Binance:

  1. Credit or Debit card (in USD)
  2. Transfer BTC to Binance and trade to DOGE

#1 Credit or Debit card (in USD)

The most convenient way to buy Dogecoin on Binance is via a credit or debit card.

However, you can only buy DOGE when you select USD.

Binance Buy DOGE USD Credit Card

If you use SGD as your currency, you will be unable to buy DOGE!

Binance also charges you a 0.1% fee for each transaction.

As such, it can be really costly to buy DOGE using this method.

#2 Transfer BTC to Binance and trade to DOGE

This method is quite troublesome too.

First, you’ll need to buy crypto from another exchange, and then deposit it into Binance.

Binance Deposit BTC

When you deposit your crypto, you’ll need to make sure that the address you’re 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 Binance’s P2P platform as well.

Binance P2P Platform Currency

This platform allows you to buy crypto from SGD, such as:

  1. BTC
  2. ETH
  3. USDT

Most of these currencies will have a trading pair with DOGE.

Using this method will help you to save on sending fees. However, you may fall prey to scams on the platform!

As such, you’ll need to be very careful with who you’re trading with on this platform!

Make the trade from your crypto to DOGE

After depositing your crypto, you’ll have to buy DOGE on Binance’s trading platform.

Binance Trading Platform

However, DOGE has rather limited trading pairs:

  1. DOGE/USDT
  2. DOGE/BUSD
  3. DOGE/BTC
  4. DOGE/AUD
  5. DOGE/BRL
  6. DOGE/EUR
  7. DOGE/GBP
  8. DOGE/TRY
Binance DOGE Trading Pairs

If you deposited BTC into Binance, you can purchase DOGE straight away.

Binance DOGE Buy Order

You’ll need to decide on:

  1. The amount of BTC you want to trade
  2. The price of DOGE you want to buy at

Once you make the trade, the DOGE will be credited into your account.

Verdict

Here are the fees that you’ll incur when trading on Binance:

Type of FeesFee Amount
Deposit FeesNone
Trading FeesUp to 0.1%
Withdrawal FeeFree (If withdraw USD)

The trading fees on Binance are as low as Luno Exchange!

However, it is also quite a hassle to buy DOGE on Binance if you’re from Singapore. If you send BTC to Binance, you will incur a withdrawal fee from the crypto exchange you’re sending from.

All of these fees will add up, and you may buy a much lower amount of DOGE than you expected!

Huobi

Huobi is another crypto exchange that allows you to trade a variety of cryptocurrencies.

Since they do not allow you to deposit SGD onto their platform, you’ll need to deposit another cryptocurrency into the exchange first.

Here’s what you’ll need to do to buy Dogecoin on Huobi:

  1. Deposit a cryptocurrency into Huobi
  2. Select a trading pair
  3. Select the type of order you wish to make
  4. Select the quantity of DOGE you wish to buy

Can I buy Dogecoin on Binance Singapore?

Binance Singapore currently does not support Dogecoin on their platform. You are unable to buy Dogecoin from SGD, nor transfer your Dogecoin to Binance Singapore.

You may be confused between Binance and Binance Singapore, but they are in fact 2 separate platforms!

Since Binance Singapore does not support Dogecoin, you are unable to buy DOGE on this platform.

Conclusion

If you would like to buy Dogecoin from Singapore, then Coinhako or Tokenize seem to be the best methods.

Although Coinbase and Gemini also allow you to buy DOGE directly from SGD, their fees are much higher.

Every other method requires you to make at least 2 trades between different currencies before you can get DOGE.

Even though the trading fees for both platforms are quite high, it is a small price to pay for the convenience that you’ll have!
