What we compare
Every platform profile starts with the questions a user normally checks before opening an account: what it is best for, whether identity verification is required, how custody works, which costs matter and what should be verified directly on the platform.
Live market data
Live price blocks use public market APIs where available. These prices are informational only and can differ from the final execution price because of spread, liquidity, slippage, fees, network congestion or API delays.
Fees and platform terms
Fee schedules change often. We avoid presenting exact costs as permanent facts unless a page has a recent check date and a source link. Before using any exchange, card or wallet provider, confirm current fees and availability directly with the provider.
Editorial independence
Comparison pages are written to help users understand tradeoffs, not to push one platform everywhere. If a link becomes an affiliate link, that relationship should not decide the ranking by itself. User fit, risk, access and costs come first.
Affiliate disclosure
Some links may earn CryptoGuide a commission at no extra cost to the visitor. We disclose that clearly and still encourage users to compare fees, terms and country availability before opening an account.
Risk limits
CryptoGuide is an informational site. It does not provide investment, legal or tax advice. Crypto products can lose value, accounts can be restricted, rules can change and self-custody mistakes can be irreversible.
