CEX.IO Made It Easy to Work and Earn With Crypto

Among the numerous websites providing Bitcoin exchange services, CEX.IO is an entire ecosystem of products and services that allow customers to engage with the decentralized economy from various aspects. The positive reputation of CEX.IO and market tenure make it worth the trust of customers all over the world. With a client base of over 4,000,000, the platform is recognized as the trading company that can be relied on.

Our customers know what it means to work with a regulated platform that has a substantial history, a deep understanding of the market and customers’ needs. We are constantly working on enhancing security and adapting our systems to the latest regulatory requirements. Compliance with the international standards allows us to implement numerous payment options and work with reliable banks and payment providers.

CEX.IO is also regularly expanding the list of cryptocurrencies. Still, every cryptocurrency has to pass a thorough verification to be listed. Our due diligence and concerns about the quality of the service pay off. Now, we are moving forward to achieve the status of the best cryptocurrency exchange.

Buy, Sell, and Trade Crypto Easily with Professional Crypto Trading Platform

Looking for a reliable online exchange might be a complicated task. Thus, trusting a platform with extensive coverage and a positive reputation among its users might save your time.

CEX.IO products, including the Bitcoin and crypto trading platform, combines the crucial features: enhanced security, variety of services, and high market liquidity. The team applies every effort to make your trading on the platform as convenient and safe as possible.

Quickly Buy Crypto with Card

We know that sometimes deep dive into the crypto economy may mean some technical barriers. Sometimes it can be difficult to deal with blockchain transactions and crypto trading procedures. So we’ve designed the Instant Buy service to allow customers to easily enter digital finance and use its benefits.

To buy Bitcoin and 70+ cryptocurrencies on CEX.IO, you just need an account and credit card. When you decide how much crypto to buy, simply enter your card details or use funds you have on your account at the moment. Then confirm the purchase and the desired amount of digital coins will appear on your CEX.IO balance instantly. This way customers can buy Ethereum (ETH), Ripple (XRP), Litecoin (LTC), and many other virtual currencies, including numerous native tokens of emerging DeFi projects.

Sell Crypto and Get Instant Cash

When you need money urgently, you can sell Bitcoins for cash using our mobile app and get funds directly to your linked card. The Instant Sell option is available on the Buy/Sell menu and allows you to convert your digital funds into real ones in a matter of seconds.

Benefit from High Liquidity Markets

Our liquid order books allow high-speed order execution even for huge-amount trades. Additionally, we regularly evaluate and improve the performance of the currency pairs presented on our marketplace. Still, when considering listing a new coin or token, we estimate its demand, fault tolerance, and throughput to avoid shady coins with zero market activity. Besides, millions of active crypto and Bitcoin traders help us to maintain markets of a high-quality and appropriate liquidity level.

We believe that an intuitive and laconic interface together with advanced trading instruments and world-class security make CEX.IO the best place to trade cryptocurrencies.
