About CEX.IO
CEX.IO began in 2013 as the GHash.IO mining pool and pivoted into an exchange that same year. Today it claims 15 million + users, lists 170 + coins / 350 + pairs, and holds 40 + licences and registrations worldwide—including U.S. money-transmitter approvals and EU registrations.
Key Features
- Versatile trading stack — spot markets for 170 + assets, “anything-to-anything” Convert desk, and margin up to 10 × (via the separate CEX.IO Broker platform).
- Instant Buy/Sell — purchase 170 + coins with credit/debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or PayPal in minutes; sell instantly back to fiat.
- Deep liquidity on majors — routinely ranks near the top for 2 % order-book depth on BTC/USD and ETH/USD, reducing slippage for large orders.
- Earn products — flexible staking and savings with advertised rewards up to 12 % APY.
- Crypto Mastercard — spend balances online/offline in 150 + countries (currently EEA only) with no annual fee.
- Multi-platform access — web terminal, iOS/Android apps, and REST / WebSocket APIs for algo traders.
- Strong security track record — no known hacks to date; near-100 % cold storage, mandatory 2FA, and address-whitelisting.
Points to Consider
- Higher fees than peers — base maker/taker 0.25 % / 0.15 % (discounts with volume); Instant Buy card deposits add 2.99 %.
- UK regulatory shift (2022) — the U.K. entity exited the FCA temporary-registration regime; U.K. customers were migrated to other CEX.IO group companies.
- Liquidity gaps on niche pairs — depth on smaller altcoin pairs can lag tier-1 exchanges.
- Derivatives split — higher-leverage CFDs live on CEX.IO Broker, a separate venue with its own fee schedule and KYC.
- Dynamic withdrawal fees — blockchain-network fees can spike; bank withdrawals incur 0.3 % + US $25.
- Region blocks and limits — not all products are available in every U.S. state or country; KYC tiers gate fiat limits.
Bottom Line
CEX.IO combines long-running security, strong liquidity on major markets, and a broad menu of fiat payment rails—ideal for beginners who value card purchases and for pros seeking a regulated U.S./EU-friendly venue. Balance those advantages against its above-average fees, recent U.K. regulatory reshuffle, and the need to use a separate platform for higher-leverage derivatives before committing large balances.
