Free in the sense of 0% transaction fees, yes. The app itself is free to download and use. Network fees on the underlying blockchain still apply (those go to miners, not Monica).

Monica is a one-way off-ramp and does not custody user crypto. Monica's treasury, KYC data handling and operating standards are NDPA-aligned and SEC VASP-framework aligned. Yellow Card publishes its own security practices — compare both before moving size.
Monica.cash supports 7 coins (BTC, ETH, SOL, TRX, BNB, USDT, USDC). Yellow Card focuses on BTC, USDT and USDC. Compare both lists for your specific assets.
