Do I need to create an account or register to use ChangeNOW?

No. This is one of ChangeNOW's signature features: you can swap crypto without registration, email, or identity verification. You only need a wallet address to receive the swapped funds. The no-account model also means there are no usernames or passwords to lose — every swap is a standalone operation. Some partner services (like fiat purchases by card) may require their own verification, but the core crypto-to-crypto swap flow works without an account.

ChangeNOW has been operating since 2017 and now supports more than 1,000 coins and tokens across dozens of blockchains, with no account and no default KYC for crypto-to-crypto swaps. That combination — speed, privacy, and asset coverage — is why the service is a common first stop for wallet-to-wallet conversions.

Because ChangeNOW is non-custodial, your coins travel from your wallet to the recipient address through the exchange's routing infrastructure rather than sitting in a platform wallet. That removes the classic "exchange hack drains user balances" scenario, which is a key reason the service is considered one of the more resilient instant swap platforms.

Bottom line
