Creating a Binance account takes only a few minutes and unlocks access to one of the world's largest crypto exchanges. This step-by-step guide walks you through registration, identity verification (KYC), and how to qualify for the new-user USDC bonus.

Before you start

You'll need three things to register smoothly:

A valid email address or mobile number
A government-issued ID (passport, national ID, or driver's licence)
A phone with a working camera for selfie verification

Step 1 — Open the official Binance signup page

Use the registration button on this page. It opens the official Binance website with the new-user bonus applied automatically — no manual code entry needed.

Step 2 — Create your account

Choose Email or Phone as your signup method.
Enter your address and create a strong password (mix of letters, numbers and symbols).
Confirm the verification code Binance sends you.
Read and accept the Terms of Service.

Step 3 — Complete identity verification (KYC)

KYC is required to deposit, trade beyond limits, and qualify for the bonus. Have your ID and a well-lit room ready:

Enter your legal name, date of birth, and address exactly as on your ID.
Upload clear photos of the front and back of your ID.
Complete the live selfie check.

Most users get verified within minutes. If your submission is rejected, re-take the photos in better lighting and make sure all four corners of the document are visible.

Step 4 — Secure your account

Before depositing, enable these security features:

Two-factor authentication (2FA) — use Google Authenticator or Binance's built-in app.
Anti-phishing code — a personal phrase Binance includes in real emails so you can spot fakes.
Withdrawal whitelist — only allow withdrawals to addresses you've approved.

Step 5 — Claim the new-user bonus

Go to the Rewards Hub in your Binance account to see the tasks you need to complete (typically a small first deposit and a first spot trade). Rewards are credited as USDC vouchers once the conditions are met. Terms vary by region and program — always double-check the current rules on Binance's official page.

Common mistakes to avoid

Using a nickname instead of your legal name during KYC.
Reusing a password from another site.
Skipping 2FA — without it your account is at high risk.
Sending crypto on the wrong network (always match the network on both sides).
