How we check each offer
How we choose and check offers →- We go through every offer ourselves. Someone on the editorial team opens the exchange's official EU website, reads the referral and bonus terms from start to finish and opens the sign-up page to see where the code goes.
- We look up the company behind the exchange in ESMA's register of MiCA-authorised crypto-asset service providers and note its name, LEI, supervisor and authorisation date.
- We only rely on official sources: the exchange's own terms, help pages and announcements, plus ESMA and the national supervisors. Each offer page lists them, with the date we last checked.
- Bonuses change often. We re-check the terms regularly and whenever an exchange announces a change, then update the figures and log the change under "Recent bonus changes".
