The five areas head to head
AI AnalysisFees & Costs

When it comes to fees and costs, the overall sentiment in the reviews is rather positive. Users occasionally describe justTRADE as inexpensive and highlight the pricing level positively in their feedback. However, concrete cost information should always be considered in comparison with the fees stated by the provider.
Usability & User Experience
Users often describe BSDEX as clear and easy to understand, and the intuitive app is also mentioned positively in reviews. At the same time, users report technical hurdles when using the platform, for example when logins are not possible, users have to log in again repeatedly, or the app occasionally freezes.
Users particularly appreciate the clear design and uncomplicated use of the justTRADE app. According to reviews, the interface is often described as clearly structured and easy to understand. In some cases, usability on larger devices is seen as room for improvement, and users would like to see features such as a tablet mode, dark mode, and more sorting options.
Features & Offering
Regarding features and the offering, the user data shows a rather reserved picture. Users mainly want more coins and more altcoins; a savings plan, a profit-and-loss display and a dark mode are also mentioned occasionally. According to reviews, a chart display is also sometimes requested.
According to the user data, only a limited number of specific comments are available on features and the offering. It is occasionally mentioned that order functions are room for improvement from the user perspective, and users would like more stop-loss options, a longer timer, and instant deposits. Overall, the offering is commented on rather briefly in the reviews, so no consistent picture can be derived from user opinions here.
Stability & Security
Regarding stability and reliability, users report in part positively about dependable everyday use. At the same time, reviews mention update problems, app startup difficulties, FaceID errors and repeated logouts. The fact that withdrawals are not possible is also occasionally mentioned in the user data.
The user reviews do not show a completely consistent picture when it comes to stability and reliability. Users do report fast execution, but app crashes, login problems, slow charts, display errors, and difficulties with two-factor authentication are occasionally criticized. According to user data, this area therefore appears to have room for improvement in some respects.
Customer Support
The support is described by users in several reviews as fast, helpful and competent. Users particularly praise the prompt assistance in direct contact. In individual cases, users would like even more support for specific issues.
Users repeatedly describe support as fast. According to reviews, inquiries sometimes receive a reply in a timely manner, which is highlighted positively in user feedback. Overall, customer service leaves a predominantly positive impression based on the analyzed responses.

Verdict
Both providers are practically level in our overall rating (2.9 to 3.0).
On disclosed fees you pay €2.25 less at justTrade per €1,000 purchase.
Neither provider reaches 4.0 out of 5 in our rating, so we do not give an unreserved recommendation here.
BSDEX is a regulated crypto trading venue of Börse Stuttgart. Custody is handled by Boerse Stuttgart Digital Custody GmbH under BaFin supervision, and withdrawals to your own wallet are free. That is solid, but compared with other platforms it is not enough for a good rating.
The offering is narrow: only 10 cryptocurrencies, no savings plan, no staking and SEPA bank transfer as the only payment method. Buying with a market order costs 0.35 %; the advertised 0.20 % applies to maker orders only. Two-factor authentication works via SMS only, authenticator apps are not supported. Users are lukewarm too: the app scores 1.5 stars on Google Play and 3.2 on Trustpilot, with reports of login problems, repeated logouts and issues after updates.
Our verdict: BSDEX suits investors who only want to hold Bitcoin and a few large coins through German exchange infrastructure. If you are looking for a regulated platform with a wider selection, savings plans or staking, Bitpanda or Coinbase are the better choice.
In the DACH region, justTrade was long perceived as a fee-free trading model. That is no longer the case: under the price and services list dated 8 June 2026, the bank charges an order commission of 0.125 % of the order volume for executing orders in crypto assets, plus the trading venue’s spread. It remains inexpensive by comparison, but it is not free. With 74 tradable cryptocurrencies as real coins, the broker offers a solid range, processed via the BaFin-licensed Sutor Bank. For cost-conscious investors who also want to trade stocks and ETFs alongside crypto, justTrade is considered one of the cheaper options.
Also appreciated is the ability to set up crypto savings plans, as well as the 20-% discount at Blockpit for crypto tax reports. The platform can be used via both app and web and is aimed at investors who prefer an uncomplicated trading environment. Staking via crypto ETPs is seen as a useful addition.
However, wallet transfers to personal wallets are not possible, which is occasionally criticized by users. The minimum deposit of 50 € and the SMS-based 2FA are also considered room for improvement. justTrade is therefore particularly suitable for price-conscious beginners and occasional investors looking for inexpensive access to crypto and securities in a regulated German environment.
