Disclosure

The short version

Exactly one article in each language carries one coded exchange sign-up link. If a reader registers through it, the platform may pay this site a referral reward. No other page carries that kind of outbound conversion link: not the home page, the navigation, or the footer.

How it works

If you sign up using our code, the exchange pays us a referral share under its own programme. That payment comes from the exchange, not from an extra charge on you.

Whether a referral code carries a fee benefit, and the applicable rate, is whatever the exchange's sign-up page currently displays and can change.

Where the links are

We hold ourselves to a hard rule. Here it is, so you can check it:

The home page does display the referral code in plain text. That is a string you can copy — not a link. Use it at the exchange yourself, or don't.

Why the restriction is this tight

Because of what this site is about. A meaningful share of its readers are frightened and being pressured to pay right now. Putting conversion links on those pages would be indecent, and it would make every recommendation on the site suspect.

So the scam and warning articles carry no commercial link at all, not even an internal one pointing at our own sign-up article. Go and check them.

Does it affect what we write

It is an influence — that is true of any site with a business model. What is more useful is how it actually reads:

• We state the exchange route's disadvantages — not instant, requires review, requires a bank account — at the top of that article, not buried at the bottom.
• We state what bitcoin ATMs genuinely win at, and accept that in some situations the machine is the better or only option.
• We promise no returns, use no language about safe or guaranteed gains, and give no investment advice. Crypto can cost you everything you put in, which is in the risk warning.

If a particular passage reads as compromised by the business model, write and tell us which one: [email protected]. Genuine errors get fixed and logged in corrections.

Things we don't do

• No paid placement from operators. This site recommends no specific machine and endorses no bitcoin ATM brand.
• No advertising. There are no third-party ad slots.
• No selling your data. We don't collect any — see the privacy policy.
• No recovery services, and no arrangement with anyone offering them.

On links to official pages

Where articles link to an exchange's or another organisation's public pages — fee schedules, help documentation, block explorers — those links carry no referral code. They are citations. The only links that carry a code are the two sign-up links identified in the table above.
