What is the mining fee?
โ€‹

A mining fee must be paid for each Bitcoin transaction in order to be processed quickly by the network. We pass on the mining fee when sending Bitcoin, using the average mining fee paid for the last 25 transactions.

This fee depends on the utilization of the Bitcoin network and can be relatively high at certain times. Especially for small purchase amounts, the mining fee can make up a substantial part of the Bitcoin amount. So please find out about the current mining fee before making a purchase; this is always displayed before the purchase.

Please also note that the mining fee is not collected by Coinfinity. The mining fee goes to the miners in the Bitcoin network and ensures that your transaction is recorded in the blockchain in a timely manner.
