What GoDex is
GoDex describes itself as an instant crypto swap service that tracks rates on exchanges such as Bitfinex, HitBTC and Binance. Its FAQ says no registration or account is needed. Its terms of use don't name an operator; its AML/KYC policy names Nrnb ltd., incorporated in the Republic of Seychelles. Its own pages disagree on how many coins it supports: the FAQ says more than 300, the homepage 960. Its coin API listed 960 entries, 140 of them active, on 18 October 2026, with XMR active.
Its fixed rate holds for 30 minutes from when the order is created. The FAQ says the rate stays fixed if your funds arrive within those 30 minutes, and the terms say an order whose deposit has not arrived by then can be cancelled. If the market moves 3% or more, the terms say the swap may take longer or the coins may be returned, at the company's choice. A floating rate uses the market rate at the time of the exchange. GoDex publishes no fee percentage: it says "zero hidden fees" and its quotes include the network fee.
On ID checks, the homepage says trades need no registration or KYC. Its terms say it can refuse, postpone or cancel a transaction it sees as a risk of criminal or fraudulent activity, and its AML/KYC policy describes verifying customer identity, including government-issued ID, on a risk-based approach.
