SafePal vs Trust Wallet Comparison

The app itself is free; sending costs the network fee. Swaps and purchases run through third-party providers, and according to the terms of service their fees apply directly between you and that provider. The same terms allow SafePal to charge its own fees for its services, also combined with the provider's fee. So compare the amount shown with the market price before every swap. As of October 2026.

The wallet is free; network fees go to the respective blockchain. For swaps in the app, Trust Wallet charges 0.7%, included in the quoted rate; selected stablecoin pairs on the same chain can be swapped without this fee. When buying through partners such as MoonPay, their fee applies, and the app shows it before you confirm. As of October 2026.

The SafePal app is free; portfolio, swaps, purchases and dApp access sit in one interface. If you own SafePal hardware, you manage it through the same app. In the German App Store SafePal is rated 4.7 out of 5 (1,022 ratings), on Google Play 4.5 (156,000 reviews, 5 million+ downloads), retrieved on 27 October 2026. As of October 2026.

The app is among the most beginner-friendly in this comparison: setup in minutes, clear navigation, no account needed. On desktop the extension's functionality falls off noticeably. As of October 2026.

According to SafePal, the app manages 10,000+ cryptocurrencies on 200+ blockchains, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana. In the app you buy and swap coins through third-party providers, connect to decentralized applications and can link an exchange such as Binance. Some third-party providers require their own account with identity verification (KYC); according to the terms of service, this data stays with the provider, not with SafePal. For extra security the app pairs with SafePal's own hardware wallets: according to SafePal, the S1 works without any wireless connection, the S1 Pro is its enhanced version, and the X1 is fully open source and connects via Bluetooth. Account and card services in the app are provided through a separate account by the partner Fiat24, which is regulated in Switzerland. As of October 2026.

More than 100 blockchain networks with millions of tokens are supported, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and the major EVM chains. NFT management, staking of selected coins, built-in access to decentralised applications, perpetual futures through integrated providers, biometric and PIN unlock and a security scanner that checks transactions before you confirm round this out. As of October 2026.

SafePal was founded in 2018 by Veronica Wong and two co-founders and, according to a quote from Binance co-founder He Yi on safepal.com, came out of the first Binance Labs incubation program. Since then it has grown from a hardware maker into a full wallet family. According to the terms of service, the contracting party is SkyGenesis Holdings Limited. On 16 August 2026 SafePal reported unauthorized access to the order data of about 39,798 customers from orders placed between 2 March 2025 and 11 April 2026: name, email address, shipping address, phone number and purchase details. According to SafePal, seed phrases, private keys, wallet passwords and payment data were not affected; SafePal names an authorization flaw in the order-tracking function of a plug-in as the cause. According to SafePal, no evidence has been found that the incident compromised access to wallets or funds. On 18 August SafePal added that individuals claim to own the dataset and are offering it for sale; SafePal says it cannot verify these claims. As of October 2026.

Help is available through the SafePal Academy and the contact page on safepal.com, and after the breach through a dedicated channel with extra staff for affected customers. Lost recovery words cannot be replaced by SafePal either, because only you hold the keys. As of October 2026.
