I confess I am always a bit sceptic about exchanges because of trust issues, reason why until now I just used Coinbase and Binance.
Anyway I found out of about this new project from my country and the fact that it is born as a startup from Polytechnic University of Turin (yes, my old Uni) made me feel comfortable, that's why I am introducing it to you.
Basically this is its descritption, which you can find also on the University startup page (https://crypto.polito.it/en/partners):
YOUNG
Young is an Italian fintech startup incubated at the I3P in Turin whose mission is to make the world of cryptocurrencies accessible to all. The ecosystem currently consists of 3 products: Stepdrop, Young Platform and Young Platform Pro.
Stepdrop is the financial education app launched in early 2019 that allows you to get closer to the crypto world and boasts over 150,000 downloads.
Young Platform, the flagship product launched at the end of 2019, is the exchange with which it is possible to buy Bitcoin and the other main cryptocurrencies quickly and easily, directly in Euro thanks to the partnership with 2 Italian banks.
Young Platform Pro, on the other hand, is the trading platform with advanced features that will be released during 2020.
Its inferface looks quite clean and friendly and language can be set also in English, so no issues for non italian users.
Here is a look of their website
And that's how it looks when you login.
Registration procedure is as usual, it includes email, phone, identity verification.
The interesting feature is the "Feeless" one. Yes, you heard well.
Depending on your "achievements", you will unlock different levels in order to trade without fees for a certain amount of time.
Just registering will give you 1 month feeles, as you can see below.
Data verification will give you 3 months.
10 referrals instead will give you a lifetime feeless exchange. Soungs quite interesting and not hard to get.
I don't know if this feature will last forever, but it's worth using now that it is available.
Here you can find my referral:

It's worthless to say that if you use it, first I will be thankful, second you will have a chance to do the same yourself to get a lifetime feeless exchange.
Moreover, from 14 of September, a 20.000€ contest is going to start. But you will find all details once you are in.
I hope that the project will succeed and you will give it a try. And should you have any issue in the registration/language setting, feel free to comment or write for help.
Cheers!
