FAQ

How do I know a crypto platform is registered in Canada?

Check the CSA's list of crypto trading platforms authorized to do business with Canadians, or your provincial regulator's list.

What's the difference between a restricted dealer and an investment dealer?

Both are registration categories. Investment dealers are members of CIRO, Canada's investment industry regulator; restricted dealers operate under narrower terms.

Why isn't platform X listed?

We only list platforms on the regulators' published lists. Unregistered, expired or suspended platforms are excluded.
