How Kronos works in Texas

Kronos uses a conservative state denylist for crypto. Texas is currently on that list (NY, HI, TX, LA, WA, VT, NH, AL) because our partners have not yet confirmed money-transmitter coverage. The denylist is fail-closed: we deny by default and tighten as our partners confirm states. Banking, 2.5% APY savings on Kronos Pro, and the cashback debit card all work normally for Texas residents. We will email waitlist members in Texas the moment crypto trading goes live.
