Paxful alternative

A safe Paxful alternative for P2P USDT and Bitcoin

Paxful closed its marketplace in 2025. VouchEx gives former Paxful traders the same peer-to-peer experience: pick an offer, pay the seller your way, and get your crypto from escrow.

Escrow on every trade

The seller's crypto is locked the moment a trade opens and is only released once they confirm your payment arrived.

Clear, low fees

1% from the buyer and 1% from the seller on each completed trade. USDT withdrawals cost $2, Bitcoin withdrawals $5. Deposits are free.

Hundreds of payment methods

UPI, IMPS, bank transfer, PayPal, mobile money, gift cards and many more, in your local currency.

Fast dispute help

If something goes wrong, open a dispute and a moderator steps in. We aim to resolve disputes within 2 hours.
