Converting XRP to Cash: Your Options Explained
If you're looking to convert your XRP holdings into cash, the process depends on your location and preferred method. Here’s a breakdown of the available options:
1. On/Off-Ramp Service (Netherlands)
For Xumm Pro users in the Netherlands, the On/Off-Ramp xApp allows seamless conversion between XRP and fiat currency. This service links your XRPL account to your bank account, enabling direct transactions.

Note: This feature is currently limited to the Netherlands but may expand to other regions soon.
2. Crypto Exchanges
If the On/Off-Ramp isn’t available in your country, crypto exchanges are your next best option. Follow these steps:
- Choose an exchange: Opt for platforms that support XRP and fiat withdrawals (e.g., Binance, Kraken, Coinbase).
- Transfer XRP: Send your XRP from Xumm to your exchange wallet.
- Sell for fiat: Convert XRP to your local currency and withdraw to your bank account.
Key Considerations:
- Research exchange fees, withdrawal limits, and supported currencies.
- Always verify the exchange’s reputation and security measures.
Cashing Out Other XRP Ledger Tokens
Some exchanges support additional XRPL tokens (e.g., SGB, FLR). Check the exchange’s token list or contact their support team for availability.
