Our verdict

Paribu is a custodial central exchange built for traders who want a broad coin list and bank funding, with 229 coins and a taker fee of 0.28% against a maker fee of 0.12%. It suits self directed users in TR who trade often enough to care about order type.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Staking alongside a list of 229 coins, so trading and holding sit in a single custodial account.
  • Trading at 0.28% for taker and 0.12% for maker sits below 1% at eToro and 2.25% at Vivid Plus.
  • Help runs through email, chat and phone, so live channels sit alongside a help centre.

Cons

  • A taker fee rank of 79 of 121 means frequent taker trades cost more here than at the better ranked exchanges.
  • Custody sits with the platform, since custodial and staking lists custodial, so the keys are not in your hands.
  • Fiat deposits run by bank only, so card funding is not part of the listed methods.

Who it suits

  • Traders in TR who want a broad coin list on a single custodial account.
  • People who fund by bank and want help by phone, chat and email as well as a help centre.
  • Users who want a single account for trading and staking, on a platform running since 2017.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Cost first traders, since bunq's crypto taker fee runs 0.25% to 1.99% and can undercut Paribu at the lower end.
  • Anyone comparing crypto earn costs rather than trading costs, since Vivid Plus lists 2.25% against Paribu's 0.28%.

How it compares on our data

On our crypto data, Paribu places at 65 of 176 for coins listed and 79 of 121 on taker fee. Read those two ranks together: the coin list sits well back in the field, while the trading cost sits nearer the front, so the breadth here is genuine but it is not what wins the comparison.

Fees and FX

Trading costs are 0.28% for taker orders and 0.12% for maker orders. The spread between the two is what a cost check turns on: an order that adds liquidity to the book pays the maker rate, while one that lifts immediately pays the taker rate. Budget on the taker rate for a quick in and out, and check both rates before running a larger order.

Frequently asked questions

What kind of exchange is Paribu?+

Paribu is a central exchange, so trades settle on the platform rather than between wallets. It runs as Paribu Kripto Varlik Alim Satim Platformu A.S. from TR, and the account is custodial, meaning the platform holds the assets for you rather than a wallet under your own keys. Staking runs through the same account.

What does it cost to trade on Paribu?+

A taker order costs 0.28% and a maker order costs 0.12%. That gap matters more than the headline: makers add liquidity to the order book, while takers lift it straight away. For context, our comparison data puts Paribu at 79 of 121 on taker fee.

How many coins are listed?+

The list covers 229 coins, which places Paribu at 65 of 176 in our crypto data. Enough for a typical retail book, without the scale of the very largest listings in the field.

How do I fund the account?+

Fiat deposits run by bank, so a bank transfer is the route on the list. That suits people who already hold a local account and would rather move money when they need to. Cards and other rails are not among the listed methods, so plan funding around a bank transfer.

Can I reach support when something goes wrong?+

You have email, chat and phone to choose from, so help does not run through a single channel alone. Live options sit alongside a help centre and a community space, which means routine questions can be answered in writing while urgent account issues can go straight to a person.

Who holds my coins?+

Paribu is custodial: custodial and staking lists custodial alongside staking, so the platform holds your assets rather than a wallet under your own control. That keeps everyday buying and selling simple, and it also puts custody and support with the same platform.

How does it compare with the alternatives here?+

Paribu sits at 79 of 121 on taker fee in our data, while the alternatives charge 0.25% to 1.99% at bunq, 1% at eToro and 2.25% at Vivid Plus. Price alone favours Paribu over eToro and Vivid Plus, though bunq can undercut it at the lower end.
