    Credentials

    20+ Canadian exchanges reviewed, hands-on

    Every review on BuyBitcoin.ca starts with a live account. We deposit real CAD via Interac e-Transfer, execute a market buy, withdraw to a self-custody wallet, and time every step. No armchair reviews.

    100+ published pages of original Canadian crypto research

    Exchange reviews, comparison guides, city landing pages, tax software reviews, hardware wallet reviews, and a full ETF/TFSA/RRSP cluster. Rankings score every platform on FINTRAC status, all-in cost, funding options, custody, app quality, and coin selection.

    Independent — no editorial input from any exchange

    We accept affiliate commission from some (not all) exchanges we cover. It never changes ranking order. See our published methodology for the exact scoring rubric, and our editorial guidelines for the independence policy.

    Editorial standards

    Our full editorial guidelines and ranking methodology are public. TL;DR: independence, primary sources, corrections within 48 hours, and no member of the team holds employment, advisory positions, or material equity in any Canadian crypto exchange.
