How We Make Money

Transparency is important to us. MarginTrade earns revenue through affiliate/referral links. When you sign up for an exchange through our links, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. This helps us keep the site running and producing free educational content.

Important: Our affiliate relationships never influence our rankings or reviews. We recommend platforms based on merit, and we're honest about both strengths and weaknesses.

Our Review Process

Every exchange review on MarginTrade follows a rigorous process:

  1. We create an account and verify it ourselves
  2. We test the platform with real trades
  3. We evaluate fees, features, security, and user experience
  4. We research the exchange's regulatory status and security history
  5. We compare with competitors on objective metrics
