Legal notice

What the site does

• explains the main concepts, the order of steps and typical risks;
• compares public conditions by the same criteria: country, payment method, accepted ID, costs, asset, network and withdrawal;
• shows the source, the date of the check and any gaps in the available information.

What the site does not do

• it does not open accounts and does not accept or hold money or crypto assets;
• it does not connect to wallets, does not receive recovery phrases and does not make transfers;
• it does not accept, pass on or carry out orders to buy or sell;
• it does not assess a specific person's income, savings, goals or acceptable risk and does not give personal investment advice;
• it does not give legal or tax advice.

How the choice of options works

The filters use only the stated conditions of the operation: country of residence, payment method, asset, network and intended way of storage. A result means that public sources describe an option with these parameters. It is not an assessment of whether it is a good deal in your situation.

Options are not ranked by how much the site earns. The third-party service decides whether it serves your country of residence, whether it accepts your passport or ID card and which limits and prices are available in your account.

Third-party services

Exchanges, wallets, banks and payment systems are independent organizations. The site is not a party to any deal between a customer and such a service and does not control how it is carried out.

A brand name does not prove that the same legal entity serves every country. Before signing up, check the legal entity, the services it is allowed to provide and the territory where it works in the official register of the country concerned.

The service register (in Russian) shows which operators are included in the routes and which candidates are excluded for now.

Affiliate links

There are no affiliate links on the site at the moment. If they appear, each such link will carry a note that the site may receive a reward after a click or sign-up.

A commercial agreement must not affect the inclusion criteria, the order of the options or the description of their drawbacks. The comparison may keep options that have no affiliate program.

Risks and changing conditions

The price of a crypto asset can change, a transfer can be irreversible, and a service can change its fees, limits or availability. The date of the check shows when the information was compared with the stated source, but it does not guarantee that the conditions have not changed since.

The rules for buying, storing, sending, declaring and taxing crypto differ from country to country and may depend on your circumstances. Before an operation, check the rules that apply in your country.

Limits of liability

The site does not guarantee that a third-party service is available, that a price stays the same, that an operation succeeds or that funds held by a third party are safe. These terms do not exclude the site owner's liability in cases where it cannot be excluded under applicable law.

Site owner and contact

The site is run by the Crypto Step Guide editorial team. Questions about the materials, error reports and legal requests can be sent to [email protected].
