Dear User,
Thank you for your feedback.
For point 1, cryptocurrency trading involves significant risks, and we understand your concerns. If the market moves against your trading direction, you may incur losses. For perpetual futures trading pairs and futures bots, liquidation can occur if the margin is insufficient.
For point 2, if you believe a discrepancy in the Pionex price charts led to an unexpected loss, please contact our official support team via live chat or email at service@pionex.com.
Based on personal experience
Based on personal experience, I would not recommend or suggest anyone using this exchange or platform. There are WAY better platforms and their customer service leaves much to be desired. The only reason I gave one star is because there isn’t an option to leave no stars, don’t use them.

Dear User,
Thank you for your feedback & we understand your concerns regarding token delisting and its impact on traders.
Pionex will periodically review each digital asset we list to ensure that it meets the high standard we expect. When a coin or token no longer meets this standard or the industry changes, we conduct a more in-depth review and potentially delist it if necessary to protect our users.
When we conduct these reviews, we consider a variety of factors. Here are some that drive whether we decide to delist a token or coin:
1. The commitment of the team to the project
2. Level and quality of development activity
3. Trading volume and liquidity
4. Stability and safety of network from attacks
5. Network / smart contract stability
6. Evidence of unethical/fraudulent conduct or negligence
In the event of a delisting, users' remaining token holdings will be automatically converted to USDT to protect their assets. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
If you have any further questions or require assistance, please feel free to contact our official support team via live chat or email at service@pionex.com. We're committed to helping resolve any issues you may have encountered.
Make it better for humans
I haven't actually used the service yet. I was about to sign up but read all the negative experiences. Doesn't surprise me. KYC, AML and jurisdictional differences have f'd up everything. Not necessarily Pionex fault but they need to do better to make things smoother for humans.

Dear User,
Thank you for your feedback.
If you wish to initiate a fiat withdrawal to your bank account, it must be done to an account under your own legal name, which must match the name on your identity verification documents.
As the fiat withdrawal process is subject to manual verification to safeguard your assets and comply with recent AML requirements, you may be required to submit supporting documents as part of the withdrawal process.
If your funds are currently occupied in trading orders, you will not be able to withdraw the occupied funds until they are made available. To make your funds available, you may need to:
1. Close your bot orders.
2. Cancel any unfilled limit orders.
3. Redeem funds from the Earn section.
Once your assets are made available, they will appear as an available balance on the withdrawal page, allowing you to initiate the withdrawal request.
If you have further questions or need additional assistance, please don't hesitate to contact our official support team via email or the App/Web live chat function.
Be aware: Broken website and trading functionality!
Be aware, about 30% of all the bots won't show on their platform if you use a PC. They're only available on the phone app. How retarded is that?
EDIT: Response to Pionex:
That's not accurate at all, or your support lied to me when they said there are NO PLANS to implement it to your website. Besides, it's not only new bots, this applies to old types of bots as well as I have found at least 4 different types of bots not showing on your website. And you can't even see your crypto holdings (outside of bots) NEITHER in the app OR on your website! Your exchange is the ABSOLUTE WORST in the business!

Dear User,
Thank you for your feedback.
When we release new features or bots, we gradually roll them out first to the Pionex app most of the time, as the majority of users are utilizing the Pionex app based on usage demands. Afterward, we will release these features to the Pionex website, taking into account several factors such as function usage demand, internal development priorities, roadmap...etc.
As a result, most features are already available on the web platform as well. This means that the Pionex website is not broken; rather, this is part of our intended operational process and workflow.
If you have further questions or need additional assistance, please don't hesitate to contact our official support team via live chat or email us at service@pionex.com.

If you want to have to go to a hell of trouble to get your money back this is the right company for you. They use fake wrong verification code messages as an excuse to keep your money as long as possible. If you need it quickly, just forget it. Money is not yours anymore whan it's in their hands.

This has been one of the worst customer…
This has been one of the worst customer experiences I have ever had with any company outside of being straight scammed. I wired in $301,000 into Pionex on Friday 12/13/24. Bought BTC on Wednesday 12/18/24 with the intention of sending it to my offshore forex broker AAFXtrading.com On Friday 12/20/24 I was told I had a temporary restriction on my account until I answered some verification questions and showed where the money came from.
I submitted the requested information along with a statement from the mutual fund showing where the money came from. This morning 12/23/24 I was told my Pionex account would be permanently banned from sending any crypto and was not given any reason as to why. I sold my BTC for a 10% loss and now have to wire the money back to my bank so that I can start this whole process again with hopefully a more customer friendly Crypto exchange.
Words cannot say hope disappointed I am in the customer services and how much of my time was wasted with a -10% loss because I chose Pionex to try to do business with.

Dear User,
Thank you for your feedback. We would like to provide clarification regarding your situation.
As a compliant cryptocurrency exchange platform, Pionex must strictly enforce Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) policies. When our system detects large fund transfers to offshore trading platforms, we have both the responsibility and obligation to conduct additional security reviews and compliance verifications.
The restrictions placed on your account were based on decisions made by our risk control system and compliance requirements. These measures are in place to protect user assets and maintain compliant platform operations. Due to security protocols, we cannot disclose specific details about these decisions.
As you mentioned, you have completed the withdrawal of your assets. If you need any further assistance, our customer service team remains available.

It's a scam... don't use it. I deposited$3800 and it won't let me withdraw any funds or transfer btc to another wallet. They just stole my money. It's earning interest for them alone. Steer clear. Just another scam crypto app

Unreliable company
Hello, I registered an account and requested KYC verification, and I attached to them all my real official data, as well as a photo of my government ID card, but it was rejected several times. I also attached a photo of my official driver’s license, but it was rejected. They ask me to email the customer support service, and I emailed them several times, but it was rejected. NO Verified by KYC.Well, what do they want from me? I deposit hundreds of dollars in my account until I see that my money has been frozen. The next day, I decided to delete this stupid platform and not engage with this nonsense again. I advise all those who want not to lose their money on this fraudulent platform.

They can steal all your money
They can steal all your money. I've changed phone and lost Google authentication, and there is no way to recover. Email and sms verification is not enough. There is a page where you can disable 2F auth. but it gives several fake error messages, so can't complete to send the form. (Surely fakes like counter is still going but says you take too much time on the page, IP connection lost?! (how?) and so on.) After sending it they still have to validate if it's your account even after sms validation...They don't want you to get back access to your account.
Edit: Yes, I've already read that lie. I've started the process half a year ago, then retried recently 1 month ago.
