Do not call CoinGate free — deposits are free and there is no monthly fee, but every payment, payout, withdrawal and refund is charged. Note that personal buy/sell crypto on the site is provided by Transak and Simplex, and gift cards by Rewards Distributed UAB, and do not attribute those to CoinGate. Flag that KYC/AML is mandatory and that crypto payments carry no chargebacks. Do not repeat first-party marketing claims such as \"one of the first\" MiCA providers, \"500+ platforms\" or \"7M+ payments\" as established fact.
