Frequently asked questions
What does Lunar charge to hold the account?+
The monthly fee is DKK 0, and the account runs on a no monthly fee model. Currency conversion is charged at 1%, which is the cost that matters most if you spend in another currency. Card payments go through the visa network.
How much does it cost to change currency?+
Lunar charges 1% for currency conversion, and the account holds 3 currencies. Multi-currency is one of the listed features, alongside crypto and travel, so money can sit in more than one currency inside the app.
What interest do I earn and can I get my money out?+
Interest is variable at 0.25% to 1% on savings, and the account is easy access. You can withdraw at any time, and interest is paid monthly on all current accounts, so the balance keeps earning while it sits.
Is my money protected?+
Deposits are covered by EU DGS up to EUR 100,000. The bank is supervised by ESMA (EU MiCA regulation) and Finanstilsynet, and the crypto side runs under licence MiCA CASP 984500DD714F66B77454 with Finanstilsynet. That scheme covers cash deposits up to the stated limit, not the value of crypto you hold.
What card comes with the account?+
It is a debit card on the visa network, so spending draws straight from the current balance. The account lists business and kids as its audiences and multi currency, crypto and travel among its features.
Can I trade crypto in the app?+
Yes. Lunar runs a cex setup with a taker fee of 2.5%, and crypto is one of the listed features. Withdrawals from the crypto side cost 0 DKK. Trading carries its own risk, separate from the cash deposits held under EU DGS up to EUR 100,000.
Who runs Lunar and where is it based?+
Lunar is run by Lunar Block A/S, based in Denmark, and has been going since 2015. The regulators listed are ESMA (EU MiCA regulation) and Finanstilsynet, and the crypto business holds MiCA licence MiCA CASP 984500DD714F66B77454 with Finanstilsynet.
How do I get help?+
Support runs through help centre and chat. That means a help centre and in-app chat, with no phone line among the channels listed. Questions about the crypto side, including the 2.5% taker fee, go through the same support.
