The Kaliper Test — seven steps
This page exists because most comparison sites have no equivalent. A ranking that cannot say what it measured is not a ranking; it is an advertisement. Every Measured seal on this site points back to exactly these seven steps.
- Open a real account on real documents and fund it with our own money — never an account the venue provided.
- Measure every deposit rail available in that country: domestic bank transfer, e-wallet, P2P, card. Time it, record the real fee, screenshot it.
- Submit KYC on Vietnamese documents with a foreign address. Record the rejections and the processing time.
- Place real orders in small size and reconcile the fees actually charged against the published schedule.
- Withdraw, and time it. This is the step many venues fail.
- Ask support a hard question in the local language. Record the wait and the quality of the answer.
- Publish all of it, failures included. Date it. Re-test quarterly, because rails change constantly.
What we do not measure
We do not forecast prices, sell signals, rank by a feeling of trustworthiness, or score anything unmeasurable. If an item cannot be timed or screenshotted, it does not go in the table.
How we get paid
Referral commission when you open an account through our link. Ranking follows the measurements, not the commission, and the highest-paying venue still drops when it fails the rails test. The only way to prove that is to publish the failures, so we do.
A limit worth stating: we test with one reviewer account, at one point in time, with one specific bank. Your result may differ. That is exactly why we publish the date and the bank name.
