BitPanda is a product of Coinimal GmbH, a company based in Vienna, Austria. The platform started under the name of Coinimal but soon was changed to BitPanda by its founders, Erich Demuth, Christian Trummer, and Paul Klanschek. They aim to offer a more convenient exchange service than what currently exists and to mitigate any risks for their customers by not holding any funds in hot storage.

Summary:

The platform is great and has a lot of positive reviews. We recommend paying attention to the fees they apply as this is not a transparent feature. Their customer support is easy to get in touch with for users and most of customer issues are easily solved. A mobile app would have been a good choice for the platform to keep up with the competition.
