Step 1: Create your Bitcoin Store account

The first step is to create your personal Bitcoin Store account. The process is simple and easy. To create your account you will need:

Once you click the “Create an account button”, go to your email address. Open the Bitcoin Store email and click on the “Activate your account” button to complete the registration process.

*If the confirmation email is not visible in your inbox, check the spam folder. If the confirmation mail is not in the spam folder too, there is a possibility that you entered a wrong Email address in the first steps of registration. In that case you will need to restart the registration process with a correct Email address.

Step 2: Bitcoin Store account verification

Verification is an important process that ensures your identity is behind your Bitcoin Store account.

Verified users on the Bitcoin Store platform also receive additional benefits like:

  • guaranteed exchange rate and instant transactions
