Our crypto ticker reads CoinGecko's data — so this is not a data-quality comparison, and we say so on /data-sources. The comparison is the embed: CoinGecko's own widgets are branded iframes with fixed layouts, while ours is markup you style and place like any element.
The data everyone uses, in an embed that is theirs rather than yours. Everything below is checked against coingecko.com itself — but pricing and limits move, so confirm anything that matters on their own page before deciding.
| FeedPulse | CoinGecko widgets | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free forever, no API key for you to manage or rotate. | Free widgets; their API has paid tiers for heavier use |
| Signup | None. | None for the widgets; an API key for direct API use |
| What you get | A ticker row you style, with the coins and currency you choose. | Price tickers, coin lists, charts and converters |
| Required link back | Optional, and the data source is credited on /data-sources. | CoinGecko branding is part of the widget |
| Cookies & privacy | No cookies, no IP stored. | Third-party iframe/script per page load |
| Customisation | Full CSS — it is inline HTML, not a branded iframe. | Width, coin and currency options — layout is fixed |
| Where the data lives | CoinGecko, cached at our edge so your page does not wait on it. | CoinGecko's own, first-party and authoritative |
| Removing it | Delete the snippet. | Remove the embed |
