Don't worry if this seems complicated at first we'll break it down into simple steps that anyone can follow.

Step 1: Choose and Install a Crypto App

You'll need a crypto wallet app to buy and send cryptocurrency. We recommend one of these three beginner-friendly options:

Choose ONE app from the list above and install it on your phone.


Step 2: Create Your Account

Once you've installed your chosen app, open it and follow these steps:

For Coinbase:

  1. Tap "Get Started" or "Sign Up"
  2. Enter your email address and create a strong password
  3. Verify your email by clicking the link sent to your inbox
  4. Enter your phone number and verify it with the code sent via SMS

For Binance:

  1. Tap "Register" on the home screen
  2. Choose "Email" or "Phone Number" to sign up

  2. Enter your email address or phone number
  3. Create a secure password
  4. Enter the verification code sent to you
  5. Accept the terms of service

Step 3: Verify Your Identity (KYC)

All legitimate crypto platforms require identity verification for security and legal reasons. This process is called "KYC" (Know Your Customer).

What You'll Need:

  • A government-issued ID (passport, driver's license, or national ID card)
  • A clear selfie of yourself

How to Complete Verification:

In any of the apps:

  1. Look for "Verify Identity" or "Complete Verification" in the app menu
  2. Select your country and ID type
  3. Take clear photos of your ID (front and back if needed)
  4. Take a selfie following the app's instructions
  5. Wait for approval (usually 10 minutes to 24 hours)

Important: You won't be able to buy crypto until your identity is verified, so do this step right away.


Step 4: Add a Payment Method

Now you need to connect your credit card or bank account to buy cryptocurrency.

For Credit/Debit Card:

Coinbase:

  1. Tap the profile icon, then "Settings"
  2. Select "Payment Methods"
  3. Tap "Add a Payment Method"
  4. Choose "Credit/Debit Card"
  5. Enter your card details and tap "Add Card"

Binance:

Step 5: Buy Cryptocurrency

Now comes the exciting part—buying your first crypto! For paying on linkdapi.com, we'll use one of these popular cryptocurrencies:

  • USDT (Tether) - Stable coin, always worth $1
  • USDC (USDC) - Stable coin, always worth $1

How to Buy Crypto:

Coinbase:

  1. Tap "Trade" at the bottom of the screen
  2. Tap "Buy"
  3. Search for "USDT" or "Tether"
  4. Enter the amount you want to buy (buy a little extra to cover network fees)

  6. Review the details and tap "Buy Now"
  7. Confirm the purchase

Binance:

How Much Should You Buy?

Buy the exact amount needed for your payment PLUS an extra $5-10 to cover transaction fees (called "gas fees" or "network fees").

Example: If your payment is $50, buy $55-60 worth of USDT.


Step 6: Get the Payment Address from linkdapi.com

Before you can send crypto, you need to know WHERE to send it.

  1. Go to linkdapi.com and proceed to the payment section
  2. You'll see a wallet address (a long string of letters and numbers) or a QR code
  3. You'll also see which network to use (like "TRC20" for USDT, "Bitcoin Network" for BTC, etc.)

CRITICAL: Make sure you note the correct network! Sending on the wrong network could result in lost funds.

Example of What You'll See:

Payment Address: TAj6Szs6k4VeqDUsacsdeG3su1HkeMniMD
Network: TRC20 (USDT)
Amount: 50 USDT
