Our verdict on each
3Commas
3Commas suits traders who want a dedicated bot and will commit upfront, with the entry plan priced at $20 and no free tier to test on. BingX and Pionex open for nothing, so the case for paying here rests on the automation itself rather than on cost.
Bitsgap
Bitsgap is a bot platform for traders who want to place orders across several exchanges from a single screen, with paid plans from $29 and a free plan for trying the interface. It suits traders who trade daily rather than people who only want to watch a portfolio balance or file tax returns.

Pros and cons
3Commas
Pros
- The product is built as a bot under bot, so the account is organised around rule-based automation.
- The service has been running since 2017, which gives it a long record next to newer entrants.
- It is available on web and mobile, so a bot set up at a desk can be checked away from it.
Cons
- No free plan, so the cheapest way in is the paid entry tier at $20 while BingX and Pionex both offer a free plan.
- Support runs on chat, help centre and community only, with no phone or email line listed among those channels.
- The entry price of $20 sits above the $13 starting price at Cryptorobotics.
Bitsgap
Pros
- You can start at no cost: the free plan exists and manual trading on it is unlimited, so the interface can be learned before any spend.
- Support runs on email, chat and help centre, so email, chat and a help centre cover both quick questions and longer debugging.
- The same account works on web, ios and android, so a strategy set up on a desktop is live on a phone.
Cons
- Paid plans start at $29, more than CoinGecko Portfolio at $5 and Blockpit at €3.99, so automation costs more to try properly.
- With 17 integrations, Bitsgap is narrow beside cryptotaxcalculator at 3,500 and the tracker median of 300.
- Support runs on email, chat and help centre only, with no phone line, so a bot that stops mid session is handled in writing.
Who each suits
3Commas
Who it suits
- Traders who want automation and accept paying $20 for the entry plan.
- People working across web and mobile who want to check and adjust bots away from a desk.
- Readers who value a long track record, given the service dates back to 2017.
Who should look elsewhere
- BingX or Pionex, if a free plan matters: both offer one, while 3Commas has no free plan.
- Cryptorobotics, if the entry price is the deciding factor, since it starts at $13 against $20 here.
Bitsgap
Who it suits
- Traders who hold accounts on several exchanges and want a single bot workspace on web, ios and android.
- People learning automation cheaply, since the free plan leaves manual trading unlimited and includes demo bots.
- Readers who judge a tool on a named legal entity, Bitsgap Holding OU, and a track record back to 2016.
Who should look elsewhere
- CoinGecko Portfolio, if you only want to watch holdings and would rather start at $5.
- Blockpit, if the job is tax reporting, where plans start at €3.99 and no bot strategies are sold.
- cryptotaxcalculator, if you need tax filings across 3,500 integrations rather than orders placed through 17 connections.

Questions about each
3Commas
Is there a free plan to try 3Commas on?+
No. There is no free plan, so the way in is the paid plan priced at $20. BingX and Pionex both run a free plan, which makes them the easier place to look at a bot tool without spending. At 3Commas the commitment comes ahead of any trial.
What does 3Commas cost to get started?+
The published starting price is $20, and that is the lowest outlay because there is no free plan underneath it. Cryptorobotics starts lower, at $13, so a price-first reader has a cheaper entry elsewhere. Setting the two side by side is a fair way to budget.
Bitsgap
How much does Bitsgap cost to start using?+
Paid plans start at $29, and there is a free plan for anyone not ready to pay. That entry price sits a little above the median starting price among trading bots at €21.84 and portfolio trackers at €26.31, so budget slightly more than the typical tool in its category.
What does the free plan let me run?+
The free plan covers a small allowance of COMBO bots and demo bots, and manual trading on it is unlimited. That makes it a safe place to learn the layout and watch demo strategies run. Anything wider, meaning more live bots, needs a paid plan from $29.
