Just a quick update: now you can choose your crypto exchange account to collect your funds there. In this case, you're able to withdraw them to FIAT at any time.

Hi Harlot,

We have our own accounts on the exchanges, so KYC is passed. We'll be making a slight switch in the scheme, allowing new functionality in the nearest future, that will take all these questions down. To the moment, we were focused on finding the best rate across exchanges and making the crypto payments easy. There will be further steps on the way.

Thank you for pointing this out. FAQ is a bit outdated, we would need to correct it. Technically, we have the ability to perform crypto exchanges at 100+ exchanges, depending on the coin, liquidity, etc. No KYC is required as for now for the merchant, only domain verification inside the BestRate's personal cabinet.
So are you saying that only you will be the one required to have KYC on all of the exchange platforms you will be using? Just by the sound of it you might be doing things illegally as youbare somehow running an illegal exchange. Unlike Coinbase and Bitpay where they'll be the ones handling the exchange you will be converting the money from other services for other people and ot might not be a good idea. It's best for your business to be your own exchange in thos situation and user's might not like the idea that you aren't liquid enough to handle withdrawals on your own.

Hi,

Thank you for pointing this out. FAQ is a bit outdated, we would need to correct it.

"No commissions" means that BestRate doesn't take any additional fees for exchanges / swaps of the cryptocurrency. Thus, we do not take any commissions for FIAT -> Crypto, so with us, users have one of the best 5% commission (10$ min) from Simplex, without any additional "partner fee" for BestRate. The situation with commissions is quite unclear at the market at the moment, some services take big commissions for the big amounts, some use very shady and tricky approaches due to market volatility. Our API use the top exchanges, and some new functionality will come soon, making the process even more transparent for our users.

We monetize our services through clear subscription, at the moment, we plan to make it 49$/month for WooCommerce plugin. Although all beta-testers get it for free Smiley

Would be happy to know your thoughts!

  • No fees from BestRate
  • Free trial period for testing
There is a discrepancy between the concerned or in other words: you will pay a fee but when the trial period expires and make the first advantage useless.

I read here ----> https://bestrate.org/faq/    that the exchange is done by Changelly, ShapeShift,...etc. What happens when these platforms impose some restrictions (KYC)? Will the account be verified by this service and then you can use this option?
If the above option is acceptable, will there be a re-fund "We returned to the trust box after verifing the identity"?

Overall the interface looks good. I may use it in the future Cheesy
