WAY better than anything else i have ever used. I haven't requested withdrawal through e-transfer yet, but I assume the best with a first class operation like these guys. Everything I have done so far has been flawless and low fees to boot.

Easy registration. Simple to use UI. Fee is a bit high. Also I wish they would be more honest about the fees. Edit: they keep changing the rules of the shake feature it's named after. I understand they have to make changes sometimes, but the lack of notification is disrespect.

Thanks a lot for sharing this honest feedback! It's true that we set the price at which you can buy or sell, which yields a small difference. However, we cover any transaction/gas fee for sending your crypto to other wallets :) You can find more information about this here: https://help.shakepay.com/en/articles/3171250-how-shakepay-makes-money

A review of the recent "contest" announcement. It's not a contest, because there's no luck involved when the primary winning condition is Step 1: Already be rich. Easy. "An extra entry per day per $1000 held" Rigged. It's ethically irresponsible not to have a reasonable capacity on these things. It should be accessible to all consumers not just the "best" ones. Even the 1.5% interest bonus is only for people who can make $2k+ monthly deposits, so not for people who get paid weekly or biweekly

I have been trying to open this app on my phone but its not working. I tried to un install and tried to log in app is not working. Fees are high but the app is useless, when you want to transfer to another e wallet. Not a good experience.
