SideShift.ai alternative: SideShift.ai vs Cambio, from its recent quotes
SideShift.ai is a no-account exchange known for its public API and for a fixed rate that holds for fifteen minutes. It builds its fees into the rate it shows rather than listing them. We do not yet check sideshift.ai’s own website, so every SideShift.ai figure on this page is an estimate, fitted from the quotes it gave Cambio, labelled Est., and never the basis of a claim.
There is no same-time comparison with SideShift.ai yet. What this page can show is the shape of its pricing, coin by coin, estimated from its own quotes to Cambio, and it says so on every row.
Every figure for SideShift.ai below is Cambio’s estimate from the quotes it gave Cambio on 306 routes, marked Est. Your Cambio quote shows what arrives before you send anything.
SideShift.ai fees: the commission and the withdrawal fee
Commission. SideShift.ai publishes no commission figure. Its help centre says shift fees are integrated into the rate shown, so there is nothing separate to set against Cambio’s percentage; its cost is the distance between that rate and the market.
Withdrawal fee. Its developer documentation is more specific about the network side than most: it names a sending fee for delivering the coin to your wallet, plus an address fee and a receiving fee, and says these are estimated and vary with network conditions. It prints no amounts. The fixed part we fit on each payout coin is in the Est. rows.

Quotes given to an API can differ from the same exchange’s website in either direction. A fit that would sit less than 0.40% below market is left out rather than shown. No claim on this page rests on these estimates.

A public API, and a fixed rate that holds for fifteen minutes with fees included.
When SideShift.ai is the better choice
- You want a fixed rate you can hold. SideShift.ai locks a fixed rate for fifteen minutes with fees included, according to its help centre. Cambio has one rate and no fixed option.
- You are building on an API. SideShift.ai documents a public API for developers who put swaps inside their own product.
- Its catalogue has your coin. Its list and Cambio’s overlap without matching; Cambio says before you send if a route is not offered.
When Cambio is the better choice
- You want the network fee on its own line. Cambio’s quote states it separately; SideShift.ai’s fees sit inside the rate.
- You want other exchanges beside your quote. Cambio shows other exchanges’ figures next to its own price, ranked by what arrives.
Is SideShift.ai safe?
SideShift.ai works without an account: a shift is one order to a deposit address it creates for you, paid out to the address you give.
Its help centre explains its two rate types plainly: a fixed rate is locked for fifteen minutes, fees included, and a variable rate is offered as the alternative. Its network-fee documentation says the fees it passes on are estimates that move with the network.
As with any exchange, send from a wallet you control and keep the transaction ID until the payout lands.
On Cambio it works differently: Your deposit goes to the one-time address shown for your order, and the selected execution route sends the payout to the destination wallet you provide. No account or stored balance is created.
