Every exchange we track that lists IFAI, what the buy costs, and what it costs to take IFAI with you afterwards.
2 of the exchanges we track list IFAI, and 2 of those accept fiat, so you can buy it without holding crypto first. The cheapest place to place the order is MEXC at $0.50 on a $1,000 market buy. IFAI moves over 2 networks (Base, BNB Smart Chain (BEP20)) — pick the same one on the exchange withdrawal screen and in your wallet.
All-in cost is the trading fee on a $1,000 market buy plus the cheapest fee that exchange charges to withdraw IFAI. It is the number the exchange’s own “how to buy” page never shows you, and it reorders the table more often than not. The coins column is how many assets each exchange lists in total, from our own sync — not the figure CoinMarketCap prints.

Showing 1–2 of 2 exchanges listing IFAI
On 2 exchanges we track: MEXC, LBank. The table above has each one with its trading fee, the payment methods it takes and what it charges to withdraw IFAI.
We cannot rank the exchanges on cost for IFAI yet: the venues that list it have not published enough of their fee schedule for a like-for-like comparison. The withdrawal fees in the table are still exact.
Indirectly, yes. 1 of the exchanges listing IFAI accepts a card (MEXC), but the card almost always buys a major asset — USDT, USDC, BTC — which you then swap for IFAI on the same exchange. That means two fees: the card charge, then the trading fee in the table.
Every exchange charges one, as a flat amount of IFAI per network rather than a percentage. We do not have a priced figure for all of the venues listing IFAI yet — the IFAI withdrawal fee page has whatever each exchange publishes.
It is a custody choice, not a safety switch. While the coin sits there the exchange holds the keys: convenient, recoverable if you lose your password, and dependent on the exchange staying solvent and keeping withdrawals open. Moving it to a wallet you control removes that dependency and costs one withdrawal fee. For a trading balance, staying put is reasonable; for a long hold, most people move.
IFAI is issued on 2 networks and they are not interchangeable — IFAI sent over Base will not arrive at an address on BNB Smart Chain (BEP20). Base is the one most exchanges use (1 of them). Withdrawal fees differ per network too, sometimes by an order of magnitude, so the cheapest network is worth checking as well as the cheapest exchange.
Exchange coverage for IFAI comes from each exchange’s own deposit and withdrawal endpoints (last sync 2026-08-29 00:53 UTC); trading fees are the published base tier, no volume discount applied (verified 2026-08-28). Exchanges we have a referral arrangement with appear first and are tagged as such — it changes no number in any row. Nothing here is investment advice; see our methodology.
