Can I buy Chiliz in Canada?

Yes, you can buy Chiliz in Canada. Simply open an account with a crypto exchange that operates in Canada and supports Chiliz—like the ones in our curated list above—and place a buy order. For example, Paybis supports Chiliz and is a registered crypto exchange in Canada.

Because Chiliz is decentralized, it isn't tied to any single country. That means you can buy and sell it from anywhere in the world, including Canada, as long as you have internet access.

What is Chiliz?

Chiliz is a cryptocurrency that allows fans to support and engage with their favorite sporting teams. It's an exclusive currency for Socios.com, an engagement platform for sport fans. On the Chiliz exchange, you can use Chiliz to buy “fan tokens” from sports teams such as FC Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus. And in turn, you can use these “fan tokens” to vote on decisions about the team - for example, what music to play in the stadium when the team scores a goal. The “fan tokens” can also be used to claim rewards, such as signed official merchandise and free match tickets. Fan tokens in turn are also limited in supply which means only a limited number of fans have access to rewards and voting rights.

What will I need to buy Chiliz?

To create an account with your chosen crypto platform, you only need an email address or mobile number. This will usually allow you to deposit cryptocurrency, but not CAD.

If you want to buy Chiliz with Canadian dollars, you'll need to pass a Know Your Customer (KYC) check.

This is a standard security procedure for most exchanges in Canada and requires you to upload some government-issued photo ID, and in some cases a selfie with today's date.

KYC is usually approved instantly, but in rare cases, you may have to wait a few hours or days.

Can I buy Chiliz with a credit card?

Several crypto exchanges in Canada accept credit cards as an instant purchase method. However, before buying Chiliz with a credit card, you should be aware of the additional cost and risks.

For instance, credit card fees are usually higher than bank transfers or e‑transfers. Some card issuers may even block cryptocurrency transactions or treat them as (more expensive) cash advances. Plus, if you don't pay off your credit card within your statement period, you may end up paying interest on your card balance and losing money if the price moves quickly.

For example, if you were to use a credit card to buy Chiliz, you could end up paying this:

• Price of CHZ: $0.033 USD
• Purchase amount: 1000 CHZ
• Estimated exchange fee (3%): $0.98 USD
• Total cost: $33.48 USD

And if it took you three months to pay off your Chiliz purchase at the typical credit card interest rate of 19.99% APR, you would pay an additional $1.67 USD in interest on top of what you originally paid to buy Chiliz.

This example can help you compare the relative cost of buying Chiliz with a credit card versus other lower‑fee methods such as Interac e-Transfers.

You can check the table of Canadian crypto exchanges above to see which ones accept credit cards for buying Chiliz, or visit our guide on buying crypto with a credit card for more details.

Can I buy Chiliz with a debit card?

Yes, it is possible to buy Chiliz with a debit card, as most Canadian crypto exchanges accept debit cards as an instant payment method.

To buy Chiliz with a debit card, you'll typically need to go through the standard steps to purchase crypto on your preferred platform, and then select debit from the list of payment options (e.g. Interac e-Transfer, debit card, credit card) before completing your purchase.

Just note that there are often higher fees for crypto purchases with cards (both debit and credit) compared to paying with Interac e-Transfer or with another cryptocurrency.

Is buying Chiliz crypto a good investment?

Investing in a cryptocurrency can be complicated and speculative, which is why it's important to do research to make sure you understand what you're buying and the purpose of the investment. Here are some of the unique things to consider before you buy Chiliz:

Supply. The total supply of Chiliz is capped at 8.8 billion

Purpose. When buying Chiliz it's important to consider why you're buying it.

Are you buying Chiliz as a short-term or long-term investment or are you purchasing Chiliz to reap the rewards as a sports fan? If the latter, you would want to make sure your favorite sports team is on the Socios.com platform and what rewards are available for fan token holders

Investing in fan tokens. Instead of investing in Chiliz directly, you can also use Chiliz to invest in fan tokens.

For example, when the FC Barcelona Fan token ($BAR) began trading in June 2020 its price rose by 200% in the first 5 minutes of trading

• Price volatility: Chiliz's price is largely based on speculation, meaning it can rise or fall quickly. For example, Chiliz's price has increased by 4.70% in just the last seven days.

• Transactions can't be reversed: Once you submit a transaction to the crypto network, it can't be cancelled or reversed. Double-check the receiving address before submitting a Chiliz purchase order or moving Chiliz off an exchange. One good way to do this is to verify the first and last four digits of the wallet address before sending. There is no way to refund Chiliz sent to the wrong address.

• Regulatory uncertainty: The regulatory environment for Chiliz and other cryptocurrencies is constantly changing. It's important to understand how international rulings have the potential to impact Chiliz's future—for better or worse.

How is Chiliz taxed in Canada?

Like all crypto, Chiliz is considered a commodity for tax purposes by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). That means it will be taxed similarly to how other investments, like stocks and ETFs, are.

Money you get from selling Chiliz can be treated as income or as a capital gain. That said, the CRA will tax crypto profits differently if you're a casual Chiliz buyer as opposed to whether your crypto profits are classified as business income.
