Crypto.com API Keys

Connect your Crypto.com Exchange account to TraderBotz so your bots can view market data and execute trades on your behalf.

Important: Never share your API secret with anyone. TraderBotz encrypts all credentials at rest with Fernet symmetric encryption.

Step 1: Log into Crypto.com Exchange

Go to crypto.com/exchange and log into your account. If you don't have an exchange account, you'll need to create one (separate from the Crypto.com app).

Step 2: Navigate to API Keys

  1. 1 Click your profile icon in the top-right corner
  2. 2 Select API Keys from the dropdown
  3. 3 Click Create a new API key

Step 3: Configure Permissions

When creating the API key, select these permissions:

  • ✓ Read — Required for market data and balance queries
  • ✓ Trade — Required for placing buy/sell orders
  • ✗ Withdrawal — Not needed (leave unchecked)

Tip: You can restrict the API key to specific IP addresses for extra security. If you're using a self-hosted node, add the node's public IP.

Step 4: Copy Your Credentials

After creating the key, you'll see your API Key and API Secret. Copy both immediately — the secret is only shown once.

Step 5: Add to TraderBotz

  1. 1 In TraderBotz, go to Accounts in the sidebar
  2. 2 Click Add Account and select Crypto.com Exchange
  3. 3 Enter a name (e.g., "My Crypto.com"), paste the API Key and API Secret
  4. 4 Click Test Connection to verify everything works
  5. 5 Save the account — it's now available when creating bots
