Zaif

Zaif is a Japanese cryptocurrency platform that offers simple exchange and an order book. It also provides regular purchases and automated trading, and opening an account includes an identity check.

Services

According to the profile, users can trade in two ways: through a simple buy-and-sell screen, or through an order book where they place their own orders. The recurring-purchase feature lets a customer accumulate an asset on a schedule, and the automated trading tools are meant for those who prefer rules over manual orders.

Assets and currency

BTC is the asset named in the source data, and the fiat currency is JPY, so the offer is aimed mainly at users operating in Japanese yen.

Verification

The website describes the submission of identity documents when an account is opened. A prospective customer should expect to complete this step before depositing funds.

Fees, limits and regulation

No fee schedule, limits or processing times are provided here, and no licence number is given. Because Zaif is a Japanese platform, companies that need its regulatory status for compliance work should ask the operator for the registration details of the entity that provides the service.

Who it suits

Users who want yen-denominated bitcoin trading with both a simple and an order-book mode.
