Cobo Wallet App to Shut Down Dec 1, 2026, With 2% Monthly Fee on Leftover Assets

Cobo will shut down its Cobo Wallet App on December 1, 2026 (UTC+8) due to a business strategy adjustment, with users required to withdraw all assets by 23:59 on November 30. Accounts still holding assets after closure will be charged a 2% monthly management fee in the original currency, with a minimum of $100 equivalent per month; balances under $100 will be deducted in full. The first charge is set for January 1, 2027. Cobo’s other businesses continue as normal.

AI take

The 2% monthly management fee with a $100 floor is the real signal: it is punitive enough to function as a forced-migration tool rather than a cost-recovery measure, and it turns a product sunset into a fee on inertia. The structure also creates a perverse tail — small residual balances get wiped out entirely, so the users most likely to be hurt are those with the least at stake and the least reason to be monitoring a wallet they have stopped using. The decisive question is whether Cobo gives clear, repeated, multi-channel withdrawal warnings before the deadline, since the fee only becomes a reputational issue if users can credibly claim they never saw it coming.
