Quickex

Quickex – Overview

Quickex is an instant cryptocurrency exchange that has been running since 2018, operated by Blockex Lab Corp, registered in Panama. It lets users swap coins directly from their own wallets, with an optional sign-in rather than a mandatory account, and it lists more than 100 supported cryptocurrencies including strong support for Monero, one of its most popular trading pairs alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Quickex does not require KYC for most swaps, but its compliance process is more detailed than most competitors in this category. Every transaction is screened against a risk-scoring system, and if a deposit scores above a 40 percent risk threshold or gets flagged under categories like mixer use, sanctions, or dark web marketplace activity, the transaction can be frozen indefinitely until full identity verification is completed. Quickex’s policy also names a list of platforms that can trigger this kind of block on their own, including Tornado Cash, Wasabi Wallet, JoinMarket, and Railgun, alongside exchanges tied to sanctions or known illicit activity. Anyone who regularly uses privacy tools like coinjoin wallets should be aware that funds routed through them can draw extra scrutiny here.

If a transaction is frozen for these reasons, Quickex states that a refund is possible only after KYC is completed, and even then a 5 percent commission is deducted from the returned amount. Refunds are not available at all if a law enforcement request or asset seizure is involved, or if the required information isn’t provided within 30 days. Users can also message Quickex’s live chat before starting a swap to ask about the likelihood of a block, which offers a way to check in advance.

Quickex’s swaps are non-custodial, and the exchange rate can be locked in as fixed or left floating with the market. The platform reports an average exchange time of around 2 minutes and processes roughly 1,250 orders a week. Quickex also runs a cashback program and a VIP tier system for frequent users, plus an affiliate program and a public API for businesses that want to integrate its swap functionality.

Quickex is not available to residents of the EU or EEA. Support is available through live chat, Telegram, and email.
