Both use identical escrow mechanics — crypto is held by the platform until the seller confirms fiat payment. Counterparty risk is on the off-platform payment rail (UPI, IMPS, bank transfer), not the platform. Always check the merchant's completion rate (≥95%) and order count (≥1000) before trading, regardless of which exchange you pick.
BingX is a newer entrant and merchants compete aggressively to win volume — promotional spreads regularly undercut larger venues by 0.2-0.5%. The trade-off is smaller liquidity, so the cheap price might only support a single retail-sized order before the next-best ad.
KuCoin paused P2P in 2024 amid regulatory pressure across multiple jurisdictions (notably the US DOJ settlement) and a global compliance overhaul. The market reactivated in 2026 with stricter KYC, a refreshed merchant program, and full FIU-IND registration in India.
Volume + ad counts come from each exchange's public P2P API (Binance, Bybit, OKX, HTX, KuCoin direct-crawled every 60s; rest reconciled via p2p.army's 30-min snapshot). The per-fiat liquidity column sums total ads (buy + sell) per market. Updated at most every 2 minutes.
