Methodology
Crypto Platform Lab scores every provider on one fixed rubric, applied the same way every time. This page breaks down each criterion, its weight, and the reasoning behind it.

| Criterion | Weight |
|---|---|
| Fees & Rates | 25% |
| Transaction Speed | 20% |
| Security & KYC Policy | 25% |
| Reputation & Track Record | 20% |
| Customer Support | 10% |
Our Data Sources
Scores are built on information drawn from a provider's own published terms and fee pages, official statements, and independent reporting where it exists. Any facts shown in a review's "at a glance" table get refreshed as part of our regular content updates.
Update Cadence
Reviews are refreshed periodically to catch fee changes, policy updates, and incidents. The exact "Updated" date on each review reflects when it was last checked, not when the provider itself last changed.
Corrections
If a score looks wrong to you, tell us why via our contact page - we'll check it against this methodology and correct it if warranted.
