This rating reflects our personal assessment of the product’s user-friendliness. How simple is the onboarding process? How modern and easy to use is the user interface? Are all key features quickly and easily accessible? We consider all these questions to provide a personal score from 1 to 10.

This rating reflects our assessment of the overall scope of the product and how many options, features, and tools are offered to the user.

This rating reflects our assessment of the fee structure of an exchange or broker. Differences can arise not only in the amount of fees but also in the types of fees. The most common fee types at crypto exchanges are “maker/taker” fees or spreads. In some cases, there are also hidden fees that are not immediately apparent to users.

When selecting products or services in the crypto space, trust and security should be the most important factors. Since we cannot reliably assess the technical security of a platform or product ourselves, we analyze publicly available factors such as security features, location, regulatory compliance, certifications, audits, team/company, overall reputation, and, of course, the track record in the market.

Crypto doesn’t have to be cryptic. Especially for beginners, the first contact with the crypto world can be overwhelming. With this rating, we provide our assessment of how easy it is for beginners to navigate—from the onboarding process to using the key features.

Customer support is an important factor for many users. Long wait times or lack of response to issues can be frustrating, especially when it comes to sensitive topics like finances. This rating reflects our assessment of the quality of customer support. To provide a balanced evaluation, we also incorporate user feedback from other platforms into our rating.
