About - Cexfinder

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.

Whether you are completely new to buying crypto, or a seasoned trader, Cexfinder will help you quickly find reliable & safe exchanges to buy or trade Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other crypto coins and tokens.

How to start?

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 new investors.

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 for this out there.

For those more experienced with 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 do our best to only list exchanges which have been doing business for at least 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.

We have accounts on all exchanges mentioned on our website. Every single exchange is actively being used by someone on our staff for trading or holding crypto. We would never recommend any exchange we considered in any way risky.

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.

Who runs this website?

Cexfinder is not owned or in any way influenced by any particular exchange, company or service mentioned on the website. Nobody involved with this website is a current employee of any crypto exchange.

Exchange reviews are done by a small team of cryptocurrency enthusiasts and seasoned traders who, outside of affiliate relationships disclosed here, have no connection or ownership stakes in any of the exchanges, products or services mentioned.

We are independent and unbiased, and our only goal is to provide everyone with the most comprehensive list of safe and reliable cryptocurrency exchanges.

Our review process

We pride ourselves on being an independent website that is neither owned nor operated nor 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. We also include live 3rd party data about volume, trust, proof of reserves, or other information from reliable sources such as CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko to ensure independently verifiable data.

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

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). We do also consider the bonuses and total fee amounts when comparing and reviewing exchanges, so you can expect our recommendations of exchanges to be impacted by the inclusion and usage of referral codes. 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.
