How we make money

Illustration of a transparent funding flow: affiliate links on one side, editorial scores locked away from them

CryptoList is free to use. We're funded by affiliate commissions: when you sign up to some platforms via links marked with an asterisk (*), the platform pays us a referral fee. It costs you nothing extra.

What affiliates can buy

A link. That's the whole product.

What affiliates can never buy

Scores and rankings — set by our methodology over the same fact database for every platform, partner or not.
Silence — penalties, hacks and failures render automatically on every review. Our best-paying partners' pages carry their full incident history.
A listing — platforms that fail our listing policy aren't listed at any price.

If we ever run clearly-labelled sponsored placements, they will be visually distinct, marked "Sponsored", and excluded from editorial rankings — consistent with ACCC comparator-website guidance.
