The clearest entity disclosure here
3Commas names its operating entity in full — 3C Trade Tech Ltd, registration number 2164568, at a British Virgin Islands address. In a category where several tools name no company at all, that complete disclosure is the strongest part of the entry.
Pricing published
The tiers are published plainly — Starter, Pro and Expert at $20, $50 and $140 per month — across a broad automation suite of DCA, signal and grid bots and multi-account futures, connecting to 15+ exchanges.
The custody gap
What 3Commas does not state on the pricing page is whether the exchange API keys it uses can be scoped to disallow withdrawals — the assurance that Cryptohopper, Coinrule and Altrady all give explicitly. It uses API keys and does not take custody, but the absence of a stated no-withdrawal position holds the custody and security scores down, and the review notes it plainly.
The company behind it
3Commas has operated since 2017 and, unusually for this space, names its people on its own about page: it is run by 3C Trade Tech Ltd., with co-founders Yuriy Sorokin as chief executive, Mikhail Goryunov, and Andres Susi. The company is registered in the British Virgin Islands. A named legal entity and a named founding team is a meaningful marker of accountability for a service that connects to users' exchange accounts through API keys.
