If not already done, you first need to register with us. You can do so:
On our website
On our web interface, click on the person icon on the top right of the widget, do the SMS code verification and provide an email address.
In Bridge Wallet
Download and install the app, then create or restore a wallet. Go in Settings > My profile > Register, then choose one of the available authentication modes to create your user profile.
Go on our web interface, choose to buy or sell Bitcoin and click on the green "Buy" button. On the "Receiving address" screen, choose the Ledger or Trezor option (or click "Connect another wallet" if you already have an address), then approve the signature request on your hardware wallet.
Make sure that your hardware wallet is updated, properly connected to your computer, unlocked and opened on the Bitcoin app/account.
You will need to make what is called a satoshi test, which is a transaction with a tiny amount of BTC (a fraction of a cent) sent from the address that you want to link to our verification address. Make sure to send the exact amount indicated, as it is a unique code required for our system to automatically detect and validate your transaction.
