The CoolWallet team has partnered with ChangeHero to offer you a safe crypto exchange option that enables you to swap multiple crypto assets speedily and effortlessly. The partnership with ChangeHero allows for their exchange to be baked right into our app. This means that all crypto to crypto exchanges can be done without leaving the app and customers can use their CoolWallet to sign for the transactions. Exchange rates and transaction fees can also be compared in the exchange page.

How do I use ChangeHero with the CoolWallet app?
What is ChangeHero?
To enable users to invest in cryptocurrencies and swap painlessly, ChangeHero acts as an instant cryptocurrency broker that allows users to convert Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and over 100 crypto assets fast and seamlessly. The services provided by ChangeHero are non-custodial. We will talk more about the benefits of using a non-custodial service later.
Founded in 2017, ChangeHero keeps increasing supported crypto assets and improving the performance of the platform. In 2021, ChangeHero reached 1.2 million visits and enabled 900K successful transactions.
What is a Non-Custodial Exchange Platform?
ChangeHero is a non-custodial crypto exchange platform, which is different from custodial exchanges, such as Binance and Coinbase. Non-custodial exchange platforms like ChangeHero do not keep users’ cryptocurrency. The result of a swap is sent directly to the user’s wallet.
As a non-custodial crypto exchange platform only acts as a middleman between the traditional cryptocurrency exchanges and users without holding assets, users do not need to go through a custodial entity and can thus truly keep control of their crypto.
Furthermore, since a non-custodial crypto exchange platform does not store users’ funds, it is very difficult for hackers to find a security breach. The mechanism secures users’ private data and makes ChangeHero a safe crypto exchange option.
Why should I use ChangeHero with the CoolWallet App?
To secure your digital assets during the crypto exchange journey, CoolWallet and ChangeHero collaborate on the integrated solution that enables you to painlessly swap your crypto directly from and to your CoolWallet.
Advanced security technology to ensure your crypto exchange journey safe
CoolBitX has dedicated itself to strengthening the security technologies of CoolWallet. When dealing with crypto exchanges via the CoolWallet App, you can enjoy our advanced security technologies such as encrypted Bluetooth connection (AES 256 military-grade) and 2+1 factor authentication (biometric and physical verification of all transactions via the app and card). Since your private key is permanently locked inside CoolWallet Pro’s EAL6+ secure element, your digital assets are not exposed to hacks and scams.
The integrated crypto exchange solution is developed by two non-custodial systems, CoolWallet and ChangeHero. As both CoolWallet and ChangeHero do not hold your digital assets, you can truly keep control of your crypto without going through a custodial entity. All crypto to crypto exchanges can be done without leaving the CoolBitX App and you can simply use your CoolWallet to sign for the transactions. This mechanism allows you to stay secure from hack and scams and protect your personal information.
Two kinds of real-time rates for choice
CoolBitX also integrates both floating exchange rate and fixed exchange rate options from ChangeHero, allowing you to easily compare different offers for decision-making in CoolWallet App. The transaction amount will change depending on the market condition if you choose a floating exchange rate. Meanwhile, if you decide to trade with a fixed exchange rate, your amount will remain the same during a certain period irrespective of the changes in the market. Since the fixed rate updates every 15 minutes, you can make an exchange at a preferred rate with certainty.
Because market fluctuations can become beneficial or disappointing in a very short time, traders who choose a floating exchange rate may receive less than expected or more than expected. As for those who choose a fixed exchange rate, they know how much they are going to receive from the very beginning. Since stability implies higher fees, the fixed exchange rates are usually set lower than the floating exchange rate.
If you hold a CoolWallet on hand, you can now make an exchange with its slim and mobile design. The security mechanism of the CoolWallet App enables you to enjoy the crypto world in a safe environment.
