QuadrigaCX Announcement

To find a reliable exchange where you can start an account, just use our Exchange Filters and we'll help you find the right platform for you.

A trading cryptocurrency guide must provide reviews of all of the top crypto exchanges out there, so that you can find the best cryptocurrency exchange site for you. This review of QuadrigaCX consists of four parts: general information, fees, deposit methods and security.

QuadrigaCX is one of the many cryptocurrency exchanges from Canada – the land of hockey and maple syrup. The exchange is registered and located in the city of Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada).

Residents/citizens from the neighbouring country USA can unfortunately not trade here. If you’re an American, don’t be too sad though. There are many other cryptocurrency exchange sites that offer the same type of trading as this exchange does. Use our Exchange Finder to find out which alternatives you have.

One very interesting aspect with QuadrigaCX is their fast withdrawals. To start with, withdrawals of cryptocurrencies are not charged any fees (more about that below). Moreover, this exchange starts all withdrawal-processes within 24 hours from the withdrawal request. This is a strong advantage for this exchange.

Also, this trading platform is not for people interested in the less established cryptocurrencies. If you want to sell or buy any of them, you’ll have to choose another trading platform.

It should be noted here that many exchanges have trading fees that are reduced as volumes are increased, meaning that you are incentivized to trade in higher volumes. Also this exchange has this system in place. The fees listed below and in the comparison table excludes any such volume discounts.

QuadrigaCX doesn’t charge different fees between takers and makers. Their fee model is instead a “flat fee model”. The exchange’s flat fee is 0.50%. This fee is above the industry average (arguably around 0.25%).

Here, the platform does not charge any withdrawal fees at all for withdrawing BTC. This is a very strong competitive edge in the market and really distinguishes QuadrigaCX from most other top crypto exchanges. Many investors seem to think that this also outweighs the somewhat higher-than-average trading fees.

QuadrigaCX offers wire transfer as a deposit method, but you can’t deposit via credit card. This of course negative news to you if you would prefer to use your credit card for any reason. However, as QuadrigaCX accepts deposit of fiat currencies at all, it distinguishes itself from many exchanges that only allows deposits in cryptocurrencies.

With respect to the deposits, the exchange also recommends the following speedy alternatives

  • Interac Online Instant Funding; and
  • e-Transfer Funding (executed within 24hrs).

QuadrigaCX seem to care deeply about security and highlights the following features designed for a secure trading platform:

  • Encrypted Cold Storage
  • Two-Factor Authentication
  • Collaborative Security with Cloudflare
  • Collective Intelligent Threat Detection
  • Global Load Balanced Network
