How we make money

Current status

WithdrawFirst currently has no affiliate relationships with any exchange. No exchange pays us, and we earn nothing when you follow a link or open an account. Every link to an exchange goes to its official homepage and is not an affiliate link.

If that changes

We may join exchange affiliate programmes in future. If we do, this page will name each programme, and every page with a paid link will say so. An exchange could then pay us a share of the trading fees you pay, at no extra cost to you. Affiliate relationships would never change our scores, the order of exchanges, or whether we show an exchange’s problems.

CoinDCX security incident, 19 Jul 2025

Withdrawals normal

Amount stated by the exchange: approximately US$44 million (USDT equivalent, per CoinDCX incident report)
Summary: CoinDCX says one internal operational account used only for liquidity provisioning on a partner exchange was compromised via a server breach; customer funds in segregated cold wallets were not affected; loss covered from CoinDCX treasury; CERT-In notified; recovery bounty up to 25% of recovered funds.
Withdrawals: CoinDCX said trading, INR deposits and withdrawals stayed functional and that 100% of withdrawal requests were processed by 21 Jul 2025 (delays blamed on high volume).

Referral codes and bonuses

We publish no referral codes and no sign-up bonuses, for readers anywhere, including the United Kingdom.

Exchange names and logos

Exchange names and logos are trademarks of their owners; use does not imply endorsement. We show an exchange’s logo only next to its name, so you can recognise it; no exchange has sponsored or approved our pages. We remove a logo on request: hello@withdrawfirst.com.

Links and your country

Every link to an exchange goes through our own redirect, which checks the country you are visiting from and only forwards you where the exchange may serve you. See our methodology.
