Referral and commercial relationship disclosure

The arrangement

This site carries one referral link to Binance's registration page with the code BN0112. If you register through it and trade, Speccue may receive a referral commission from Binance; that is the site's only commercial relationship. We are not employed or endorsed by Binance and are not affiliated with any exchange. There is no advertising, sponsored placement or paid inclusion in a table.

Where the link is

There is exactly one referral link in each language of this site. In English it sits in the account-opening guide, at the point where you would actually be registering. It is a plain, visible link to Binance's own registration page, marked up as a sponsored link, and it opens in a new tab.

It is not in the navigation. It is not in the footer. It is not on the homepage. There are no buttons scattered through the articles pushing you toward it. If you never open the account-opening guide, you will never encounter it.

The referral code BN0112 is shown on the homepage and appears in the guide's link parameter. Whether it changes your fees or gives you any benefit is decided by what Binance's registration page shows at the time.

What it costs you

Using the code never increases what you pay the exchange. Whether it brings a fee discount or any other benefit is not something this site promises on the exchange's behalf: rely only on what the exchange explicitly displays before the form is submitted. If the exchange page displays no code, benefit or fee effect, do not infer one from this site.

What we will not do

A site whose source contains an unverified referral arrangement is not in a position to tell you which platform is best. So we do not.

• No scores or star ratings. A number out of ten from a party with a financial interest is decoration, not information.
• No "best of" rankings and no editor's picks. Those formats exist to move traffic toward whoever pays, and the industry knows it.
• No claim of independent testing. We have not run controlled trials across a dozen platforms and we will not write as though we had. Where a page describes a real screenshot or a real check, it says when it was taken.
• No verdicts on which platform is safer or more compliant. We describe what each one publishes about itself, say where you can verify it, and stop there.
• No affiliate links for wallets, hardware, or anything else. The existing arrangement still needs verification, so adding more commercial relationships would be unjustified.

What is left is comparison of published facts, an explanation of what the differences mean for different kinds of user, and a date on every figure. That is a narrower product than a ratings site, and it is the honest version of what we are able to offer.

How to check our figures

Every rate, tier and limit on this site carries the month it was checked and a link to the platform's own page. Those links are ordinary references and carry no code. If a figure here disagrees with the platform's current page, the platform is right and we are stale — a normal outcome, since fee tables change more often than reference sites get revised.

Where a number changes too often to be worth publishing, we describe the structure and tell you where to look rather than printing a figure that will be wrong within weeks.

If you find something here that is wrong, we would like to know: 100jtz@speccue.com. Corrections are logged in the corrections record rather than quietly edited.

Who writes this

Pages are compiled by the Speccue Reference Desk, a collective byline rather than an individual. We do not invent an expert persona, publish photographs of people who do not exist, or claim credentials. The work here is reading primary sources carefully and setting them side by side, which does not require a named authority and is better judged on whether the citations hold up.
