How Kronos works in Hawaii

Kronos uses a conservative state denylist for crypto. Hawaii is currently on that list (NY, HI, TX, LA, WA, VT, NH, AL) because partner Bridge has not yet confirmed money-transmitter coverage. The denylist is fail-closed: we deny by default and tighten as Bridge confirms states. Banking, pay advances up to $1,000 at 0% APR, 2.5% APY savings on Kronos Pro, and the cashback debit card all work normally for Hawaii residents. We will email waitlist members in Hawaii the moment crypto trading goes live.
