BINANCE TUTORIAL THREAD

Binance fees, quite simply, blow Coinbase and even Coinbase Pro out of the water

But it doesn’t have the friendliest user interface

So I’m here to help

(Happy for others to recommend other platforms)
Sign up to Binance if you haven’t already

Use this link and you’ll get 10% back on trading fees: https://www.binance.cc/en/register?ref=RN0UI8PI

From this page on the app, select “Wallets” on the bottom right

Then select “Deposit” at the top left of the screen
From here, select “Cash” and search for GBP (or whatever your choice of currency is)

For the sake of this example, I will deposit £100 using Faster Payments so I don’t get charged a fee

Press “Continue” and you will be given the account details to send to and a reference
Important: the bank account must be in your name and should not be sent from any of the 3 banks listed below
Next, select the “Trade” button at the bottom of your screen

Click the two lines next to ETH/BTC in the top left (your default pairing may be different)

This will open the 3rd picture: select “FIAT” and your chosen pairing
Fees are the same regardless if you’re a Maker or Taker, so I won’t overcomplicate with Limit orders

Select “Buy” and choose “Market” from the drop down

Select “Total” rather than “Amount” and you can enter how much GBP you want to spend
From the same page, select the symbol on the bottom right

This will open up the 2nd picture

Go to “Order History” and you can see your purchase

Because I done a Market order, it got filled immediately

Go back to “Wallets” and select “Spot” at the top

You’ll see your balance
If anyone has any more questions or would like to make recommendations, feel free

Last thing I want is people doing this wrong or being bumped on fees

This was done from the mobile app as I think it’s easier to navigate than the desktop version
