How does Changelly work?

Changelly’s robot is integrated into the largest cryptocurrency trading platforms, such as Bittrex and Binance.

In the span of milliseconds the robot makes bids and asks on the trading platforms, selects and suggests the best available rate and then displays the estimated rate on their site.

What advantages does being added to Changelly provide?

Listing by Changelly opens up merchant options for ARK including in-wallet exchanges for the ARK Desktop client and Direct ARK exchanges on our website. With Changelly’s API and developer tools we will see many more possibilities open up as well.

Yes you read the last paragraph correctly! In the upcoming weeks (after ARK Core v2 release on DevNet) we will be integrating Changelly’s buying option via credit/debit cards with our ARK Desktop Wallet. Buying ARK will be a seamless simple process from inside your ARK Desktop wallet. We will also be adding an option to purchase ARK directly from our website as well.

With ARK now on Changelly, the number of exchanges/services listing ARK has grown to 18 over the past year. From our humble beginnings on only one exchange a year ago, we have grown tremendously — and with our relentless behind-the-scenes work, the upcoming year will be just as exciting!
