On exchanger anonymity

The majority of exchangers on BestChange, as well as our website, work confidentially, taking care of the safety of your assets.

✅ We do not have registration on our website. Visiting BestChange, you will see the rates you need and find a suitable option from the list. 
✅ No verification. BestChange doesn’t store assets or provide an option for making a transaction. Regular KYC/AML check requirements do not apply to us, but exchangers included in the listing must go through these procedures for security reasons.
✅ We mark exchangers that require verification on their website. If a client needs to leave some personal data, you will see special marks on BestChange next to the site of the exchanger.
✅ We do not keep your personal data and do not transfer it to anyone: emails which you specify when you contact the support or analysis of user behavior when solving CAPTCHA.

What is the exchanger rating in the payment system?

On BestChange, after clicking the number of reviews in the table after selecting a payment direction, you can see such indices for each exchanger as Advanced Cash TS, WebMoney BL, and Perfect Money TS. Some payment systems assign their users levels which show how much you can trust the agent.

✅ For example, y Advanced Cash has Advanced Cash Transaction Score, WebMoney has Business Level, and Perfect Money has Trust Score. If, instead of the rating, there is a dash, it means the exchanger does not work with this payment system and does not have a rating in it. If you plan to work with one of these payment systems via an exchanger, pay attention to the mentioned characteristics.

Also, on the exchanger page, you can see the parameter “MyWOT rating”, which shows whether the website is worthy of trust. Web Of Trust evaluates site security based on user opinions.

Thank you for your question. Indeed, there is an item in the requirements for integration in our service which presupposes having a banner on the exchanger website before it is listed in the monitor. But, in any case, the presence of absence of such a banner means nothing. Any person can add this image to their website, including fraudsters. It is the presence on our website that you need to check, and not vice versa.

As for the public log of applications, we have thought about this function but haven’t found serious grounds for its implementation. The thing is, seeing an application as such can confuse the user’s expectations, although it guarantees almost nothing. Only after a multifaceted long-term check is it that we add exchangers to the final list, and until the checks are finished, the risks of being deceived are not decreased. Yes, being in this transitional list could mean the absence of evident fraudsters, but before the exchanger is added to the listing, the presence of the website in the application list wouldn’t prove anything besides this fact.

I remember making a similar suggestion last year, but this was their response


So they may or may not implement it.

it's a really good thing that you occasionally give explanations about your business model and the different aspects that your platform offers. I honestly had no idea that there were so many small details that you paid attention to.

I may have already asked this, but I would like to see how the whole process goes when you accept a new service in your monitoring. I see that it often happens that exchangers put you as a reference, although they are not on your list. so then we get various excuses for it. For example


Also, do you have some kind of update log that is publicly visible somewhere, where we can see which new services are in the process of being added to the monitoring or even possibly suspended/removed?

How to find the exchanger you used last time?

BestChange keeps the history of every person’s visits to exchangers — given they didn’t change the browser and didn’t clear cookies. That’s why you can easily find the exchanger you like that you used recently, but have forgotten its name.

Simply click the link “History” and you will see the table with the following data:

📝 Date when you visited the exchanger.

📝 Name of the exchanger (click on it if you want to visit its site once again).

📝 Direction and exchanger rate at that moment. If the field is empty, then you must have visited the website from the list of exchangers, without choosing an exchange direction.

📝 Reserves the exchanger had at the moment.

You don’t have to keep in mind all the information about all exchanges you made — using BestChange before each operation will not only make it more profitable and safe but will help find the best exchanger options. Because there are lots of them (over 200 on our website) and remembering the name and particularities of each one is almost impossible.

The thing is, that comparison of small local services in our listing with large international exchanges is not very correct. Data leaks you are talking about are oftentimes connected specifically with large international projects. At the same time, we can state that there have been no noticeable hacks of small local exchange services in recent years.

We do not claim that the security systems of small services are better than those of large international projects, this would be untrue. But it is obvious that they have different principles of work and methods of conducting verifications, exchangers simply may not store the received data after verification, and there are much fewer reasons to hack a small local site instead of an international project.

Although we agree that such risks still exist and cannot be ignored.We reiterate that we will try to influence the administration of the resources from our listing so that they become even more concerned about the security of the stored information or do not store extended data at all unnecessarily.

Multiple leaks happened to biggest centralized exchanges, and third parties that work with them or with hardware wallets, so we know for a fact this happened before.
If Binance and others that probably have most money and best security practices, than I am sure it can happen to small exchanges with shady or unclear privacy polices and practices.
For some people it would also be a problem that foreign government agencies can get a hold of their customer information and use that against them.

This is one of the methods, most widely used, but not a single one.

It is used due to the business specifics and is mainly aimed at avoiding a widespread fraud scheme, the so-called “triangle”, when the victim is fraudulently asked to transfer funds to the details of the exchanger and receive cryptocurrency for this from an unsuspecting exchanger, framing it before law enforcement agencies when this fraud is revealed.


As a rule, the integrity of the image is checked, and interference with any parts other than valid numbers will be revealed during the check. But often, operators are asked to close the numbers physically (with a finger, a sheet of paper) in order to analyze also the complete lack of editing in the meta-data of the image.


It would be short-sighted to keep such information longer than the period necessary for verification and also to store it in storage with constant access to the network. We do not monitor the internal policies of exchangers, however, we are also not aware of any high-profile leaks. Thank you for your comment, perhaps we should issue recommendations for the administration of these resources so that they take your comments into account when storing and processing critical data.


Unfortunately, we cannot predict this or somehow influence financial literacy, except for such posts.

They don't have to abuse this personal information, but that can also happen because you can't guarantee it won't, however there is high probability that sometime in future this data can be hacked.
We don't know who exactly is storing this data. We don't know who exactly is using this data and if they are sharing it with other third parties. We don't know anything.
Hiding expiry date and CVC is not a bad idea, but I bet many people are not doing it or they are not doing it correctly.
I would not use any exchanges that ask me to send them something like this.

how reliable is this verification method?
in the case of credit card verification, complete KYC is mandatory, right? Otherwise, a stolen card can be verified very easily.
allowing editing due to blurring of the expiring date opens up the possibility of manipulation for someone with skills in photoshop for example.

💳 Why is card verification in an exchanger required?

BestChange always tries to warn users if some exchangers request verification of a bank card. This is marked as a green circle sign with a schematic card next to the name of the exchanger.

What data is required:
- Card number (or, at least, the first and the last four digits).
- Name of the cardholder.
- A photo of the card with the exchanger’s website or its URL in the background.

Card verification is required to confirm that you own the card to make life harder for fraudsters that use the payment assets of others.

How SAFE is it?

This data can be transferred confidently, and they will not give potential scammers any benefit even if something happens to the exchanger.
However, you need to blur the expiry date and the CVC code on the card if it is written on the same side. You don’t have to provide the back side of the card.

We do not keep in our rating exchangers with open financial claims. But while the issue is being examined, if there is no threat to the others, it can keep working. However, if the risks of deceiving other users exist, we exclude this exchanger from the rating.

If we speak about the preventing effect of deceiving users, the risk of losing access to the millions of visitors of our website remains a sufficient factor for the majority to prevent crimes from their side.


As for the promotional activities of the exchangers, these are not forbidden by our rules. Such activities cannot harm users. We do not forbid them and track only fake and made-up stories in the reviews; if real people make real exchanges and have real experiences, there is nothing bad if they are additionally stimulated to make a review about their positive experience. The specifics of human behaviour are such that without additional stimuli, we rarely provide feedback if everything went well and only write complaints when something happens.

What happens if the exchanger ignores it? Would it turn into red and affect their rating/review counter?

---

BTW, last month I wanted to ask you about a "specific case", but while I was waiting for them to respond, I completely forgot the whole case until I read your post, so I was wondering what happens to exchangers that run such contests to inflate their ratings and climb the "ladder"?

💬 Are reviews on BestChange real?

Let’s talk about where it’s best to look for reviews about exchangers. The website of an exchanger is no good for this purpose — there is a possibility that negative reviews are simply deleted there. It’s best to study independent third-party sites. Information on various forums and social networks can also be unreliable: good reviews are easy to buy, and bad ones are also bought — but by competitors.

So, why Its’ recommended checking reviews specifically on BestChange:

- The creator of the review must confirm it by email, so the possibility of fake automated reviews is excluded.

- Negative reviews are made into claims, to lift which the exchanger must solve the problem and notify the user about it.

-The content of all reviews is checked to make sure there is no speculations and slander in them. Reviews of advertising nature are not allowed.

Don’t forget to write reviews about exchangers you use yourself. This is an invaluable help to other users, especially when it comes to a service that has recently appeared on BestChange.

Why does exchange rate float?

When selecting an exchanger on our website, always pay attention to the mark “This exchanger does not fix the rate at the moment of order creation.” It will mean the following:

- The selected currency pair is very volatile. It is exactly then the exchanger sets a small term of the order or a maximally allowed percent of deviation in order to protect itself from the risk of sharp fluctuations in the exchange rate.

- If the deal takes a considerable amount of time, for example, with cash. In this case, the exchanger will re-calculate the amount at the rate that takes place at the moment of the deal completion.

- We would like to clarify one moment when exchangers set a certaine time limit for the rate fixing. If the order has not been paid within this timeframe, then the fixing is cancelled. Also, sometimes the rate is reviewed only after considerable change of the market rate of the currency.
