Robinhood offers commission-free trading services but regardless of this, many users are looking to transfer crypto from Robinhood to Crypto.com.
This is mainly because these Robinhood users will want to get around the restrictions Robinhood sets on both internal and external transfer of crypto assets.
This means you can't transfer crypto assets to neither other Robinhood users nor non-Robinhood users using other crypto wallets.
You are only allowed to trade your crypto assets within Robinhood and withdraw them to your bank account once the trade has settled.
This makes a transfer of crypto from Robinhood to other wallets such as Crypto.com directly impossible.
However, there's a way to complete the transfer indirectly.
That said, this article focuses on showing you how to transfer crypto from Robinhood to Crypto.com without hassle.
