About

Cexfinder was launched in 2024 to provide an easy comparison of cryptocurrency exchanges. Our website aims to help you find the perfect crypto exchange based on your individual needs and preferences.

It doesn’t matter whether you are completely new or a seasoned trader, Cexfinder will help you quickly find reliable and safe exchanges to buy or trade Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other crypto coins and tokens.

How to start?

  1. New investors: If you are new to crypto investing, we suggest checking our listed beginner-friendly crypto exchanges. These exchanges generally have easy fiat (traditional money) deposits and an easy to learn interface, making them suitable for first time buyers.
  2. Country availability: For crypto buyers from United States or other countries and regions which are often restricted from certain exchanges, browse crypto exchanges by country to find the ones available in your area.
    • Each country has a basic beginner’s guide to buying crypto too, so take a minute to learn the basics and ensure a smooth purchase.
    • We take great effort to ensure the list of restricted and available countries is always kept up to date, and we can confidently say there is no better resource out there for exchange availability by country.
  3. Experienced users: For readers with more experience in investing and trading, visit the Cexfinder homepage and use one of our handy tags to filter exchanges with features you care about most. You can also view all tags here!

Are all your listed exchanges trustworthy?

We only list exchanges which have been doing business for more than a year, without any shady practices, controversy, or unknown owners, among other factors. We believe every exchange listed on our website is trustworthy and reputable.

Take a look at our exchange listings criteria to find out what kind of exchanges we list and avoid.

Our team has accounts on every single exchange mentioned on our website. Most exchanges are actively being used by someone on our staff for trading or holding crypto. We would never recommend an exchange considered risky in any way.

That being said, no exchange is 100% safe. You should familiarize yourself with safety and risks of owning digital currency. Use strong passwords, two-factor authentication, and avoid keeping your entire portfolio on one exchange. If you are knowledgeable about self-custody, always keep most of your crypto portfolio on personal wallets.

Our review process

We pride ourselves on being an independent website that is NOT owned, operated or influenced by any exchange. Our commitment to providing unbiased reviews and comprehensive overviews of exchanges remains unwavering.

At our platform, transparency and objectivity are paramount. We meticulously research and analyze each exchange, considering factors such as security measures, user experience, trading fees, trading volume, customer support, available features, and overall reputation. To ensure independently verifiable data, we also include live 3rd party data about volume, trust, proof of reserves, or other information from reliable 3rd party sources such as CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko.

This thorough approach ensures that our audience receives accurate, updated, trustworthy and impartial information to make informed decisions about where to buy crypto safely.

Affiliate disclosure statement

It’s crucial to emphasize that the utilization of referral or affiliate links does not affect our review process or listing criteria. However, because referral links provide very impactful deposit bonuses and fee discounts to traders, or recommendations of specific exchanges, products, and services are impacted.

For example, utilizing our Bybit referral code boosts new user bonus rewards to $30,000, a significant extra value compared to standard $6,000. On OKX and HTX, using our referral code gives you a 20% permanent fee discount (compared to no discount without codes).

These special bonuses and fee discounts are considered when comparing and reviewing exchanges. As a result, the inclusion and usage of referral codes can impact our overall review scores and recommendations for specific exchanges. That being said, we always prioritize recommending exchanges we believe are best for our audience and community.

Our goal is to empower users with the knowledge they need to navigate the cryptocurrency exchanges confidently. By offering unbiased insights and recommendations, we strive to foster a trustworthy and reliable resource for crypto enthusiasts worldwide. Rest assured, our dedication to integrity and fairness guides every aspect of our operations.
