meria review

Trading costs are tiered, with taker fees of 0.99% to 2.39% applying to your orders. The lowest end of that range is the one to watch, since it sits well above the 0.2% charged across exchanges. High-frequency traders pay the most here.

Meria is registered in France with the AMF, holding authorisation A2026-020, and it also appears in the MiCA register as MiCA CASP 969500UJSWU20FEXQ504. The operator behind the platform is MERIA SAS, based in France.

Custody is custodial, so Meria holds the assets rather than you. The same model shows in the feature list of custodial and staking. Anyone who wants to hold their own keys would be better served by a self-custody wallet.

Fiat deposits run through card and bank, so a bank transfer and a card both work. That makes funding straightforward from a French or eurozone account. Card funding is the quicker route when you want to trade without waiting on a transfer.

Withdrawals carry a per-asset network fee under Network fee per asset, e.g. 0.03 AAVE, 0.05 ATOM, 1 ARB, charged on the underlying network. The platform does not add its own markup on top of that network cost. Staking positions are handled as a feature, not as a derivative.

Derivatives are not offered, so there are no futures or perpetual contracts on this platform. The trading side is spot only, with staking as the extra feature alongside custodial storage. Leveraged products sit elsewhere.

The list covers 70 coins, which is below the 74.5 typical of the exchanges compared. The app itself costs €0, and the wallet format is mobile, so there is no subscription to pay.

Support runs on email, chat and help centre, covering live chat, email, a help centre and a community. The help centre is the main self-serve route for identity and account questions. There is no phone line in that list.
