Editorial Transparency

Updated May 6, 2026

Our editorial commitment

At Exchange Selector, we work to offer clear, objective, and understandable comparisons of cryptocurrency exchanges.

Our goal is to help users make informed decisions in a complex and constantly evolving environment, always prioritizing transparency, clarity, and editorial independence.

All comparisons, rankings, and analyses published on Exchange Selector are developed according to our own criteria and standardized methodologies.

Our team has over 10 years of experience analyzing exchanges and operating within the crypto ecosystem.

How do we evaluate exchanges

We analyze exchanges using comparable and observable criteria, including:

  • Safety and protective measures
  • Regulation and public transparency
  • Commissions and operating costs
  • Liquidity and activity
  • User experience
  • Payment methods and geographic availability
  • Products and Available Features

The information is obtained from:

  • Public data
  • Official sources
  • Tests performed with real accounts
  • Information provided by the exchanges themselves
  • Reliable external sources

Each category is evaluated following observable criteria and subsequently weighted to obtain a comparative overall score.

Scores and rankings may be updated periodically as platform conditions or our evaluation methodology change.

Editorial independence

Exchange Selector maintains a policy of editorial independence.

Although we may collaborate with certain platforms through affiliate programs, advertising, or commercial agreements, these relationships do not determine our scores, rankings, or editorial conclusions.

Exchanges are evaluated using the same criteria, regardless of whether or not a business relationship exists.

Trade allowances never allow for the modification of scores, rankings, or editorial conclusions.

No exchange can pay for a better valuation in our comparisons.

A trade agreement never guarantees a specific position within our rankings.

Monetization and affiliate links

Some links included on the Website may be affiliate links.

This means Exchange Selector may receive a commission if the user signs up for or uses certain third-party services through these links, at no additional cost to the user.

These collaborations help fund the maintenance, upgrade, and development of the platform.

When sponsored or promotional content exists, it will be clearly identified.

Limitations of Information

Although we make reasonable efforts to keep the information up-to-date and accurate, we cannot guarantee that:

  • All data is permanently updated
  • The exchange terms and conditions shall not change without prior notice.
  • The availability of services should be equal in all countries
  • The user experience should be identical for all profiles

The comparisons, scores, and analyses published are for guidance only and do not constitute financial, legal, or tax advice.

Each user must independently evaluate whether an exchange is suitable for their needs and risk profile.

Excluded exchanges

Exchange Selector can exclude platforms that present relevant signals of risk, lack of transparency, or insufficient information to perform a reliable assessment.

We can also limit or withdraw exchanges that present relevant incidents related to:

  • Liquidity problems
  • Lack of operational transparency
  • Regulatory risks
  • Security Incident History
  • Insufficient or unverifiable public information

The inclusion of an exchange on the Website does not imply a guarantee of its security, solvency, or suitability for a specific user.

Content Update and Review

We periodically review our comparisons, rankings, and analyses to reflect relevant changes in the exchanges analyzed, including modifications in:

  • Commissions
  • Products and functionalities
  • Geographic availability
  • Regulatory restrictions
  • Payment Methods
  • Operating conditions

Even so, some changes may occur between revisions, so we always recommend consulting the official exchange information before making a decision.

Transparency about our sources

Whenever possible, we cross-reference information using:

  • Official exchange websites
  • Public Documentation
  • Corporate communications
  • Data provided by recognized external providers
  • Verifiable publicly available information

In some cases, certain metrics or data may depend on information provided by third parties and could vary over time.
