How to add a card to Binance

Binance

The global cryptocommunity and popular trading platforms are striving to simplify the purchase of digital assets for users. The most common method of payment is with bank cards. Nowadays, they can be used in most offline and online stores. Therefore, it is not surprising that exchanges are adding the possibility of direct purchase of cryptocurrencies using cards. However, traders from Russia are not the first to face restrictions on financial transactions. From this material, readers will learn whether it is possible to use ruble accounts in January 2024. It also tells about exchange instruments, where they are allowed to use them and what opportunities are limited. Instructions on how to add a card to Binance and a list of banks are given. Additionally in this material – about what the trading platform CommEX has to do with the service.

How to bind a card to Binance on the site

Cryptocurrencies can be deposited to the account balance. For beginners who do not have such assets, the exchange offers a purchase for fiat. It is performed in two ways:

  • You can purchase coins in the wallet using the “Deposit” button.
  • Buy cryptocurrency from other users on the P2P market.

For Russians, the first method is not available. In September 2023, the exchange banned the use of accounts of sanctioned banks, but left the possibility of linking payment means of 7 other financial institutions. Later limited these options as well.

In January 2024, you can not use rubles for direct purchase in the “Replenishment” menu.

In the wallet there is still a button “Add a new card”. However, when trying to bind a payment instrument, the exchange sends messages:

In some cases, a notification pops up that deposits in rubles are not accepted. The same message notes that it is possible to continue transactions on the CommEX exchange.

The exchange does not support ruble deposits

This service was reported in September 2023. CommEX is a new crypto trading exchange. In Binance do not advertise the connection between the platforms. The new exchange is positioned as an independent company that bought out the Russian business of Binance. Nevertheless, several direct links are traced:

  • It is possible to register a personal account on the new platform through a Binance account. CommEX automatically uploads personal data and information from the documents provided for verification.
  • The form of transferring cryptocurrencies between exchange balanceshas been simplified . For this purpose, a separate button has been created in the CommEX wallet.
  • The interface is completely identical. The difference is in the design colors. Otherwise, CommEX is Binance before restrictions for traders from Russia. The identical interface can be called an advantage. Instructions for working with Binance products literally fit for operations on CommEX.

With the purchase of cryptocurrency on the P2P market, the situation is similar. It is a trade in which users exchange assets among themselves. On Binance P2P, 5 cryptocurrencies are converted in pairs with the ruble.

Users transfer traditional money outside the exchange – for example, through online banking. The situation in early 2024:

  • It is possible to trade on Binance P2P until January 31, 2024. However, the September restrictions on working with sanctioned banks also affected the peer-to-peer platform. It is not possible to use Sberbank, Tinkoff or other institutions popular in the country. At the beginning of 2024, it is still possible to specify the data of 7 banks.
  • After January 31, P2P transactions with rubles on Binance will end. However, they will be performed on CommEX.

On Binance P2P it is necessary to bind payment methods in case a cryptocurrency sale is performed. This option is also available to traders from Russia. The accounts of 7 financial institutions can be used officially:

  • Post Bank
  • Raiffeisenbank
  • Home Credit
  • Citibank
  • Renaissance Credit
  • BCS
  • Credit Europe.

You can add a payment method on Binance either on the website or via the mobile app. In each case, you need to go to the P2P section first. Step-by-step guide for binding on the site:

  1. In the main menu (the section bar at the top of the page), click on “Trading”. Next, go to the P2P tab.
  2. Go to the “More Details” menu and select “Payment Methods”.
  3. Scroll down the page and click on the “+ Add payment method” button.
  4. Choose a bank from those offered – for example, “Home Credit Bank (Russia)”.
  5. Enter the card number.
  6. Enter the official name of the bank.
  7. Press the “Confirm” button.
  8. Enter the confirmation code.

Data are needed only to reflect in the text of the ad on the P2P-market. In fact, sellers often specify card numbers of other banks, including Sberbank or Tinkoff. This is reported in the comments to the ad. Also, counterparties pay with the help of the Rapid Payment System (SPB). About the possibility is noted in the comment.

Up to 20 payment methods can be linked in the P2P section. Payeer payment system is also available.

Authorization on the exchange

Any addition of a payment method ends with entering a confirmation code. This element increases the security of the account. Thus, the user confirms that he performs the action of his own free will and access to the account continues to remain in his hands. Confirmation options on Binance – in the table.

Method Description
2FA-authorization
The combination will be reflected in the authentication application – for example, Google Authenticator
Email confirmation
In this case, the code must first be received by e-mail. Then it will be copied and pasted in the form of adding a payment method.
Verification of transactions by phone
As in the case with e-mail confirmation, the code must be sent to the mobile number linked to your account.
Passkey
In this variant biometric confirmation is used – for example, by fingerprint in the phone.

Binding a second card

These payment methods are managed in the “More information” section. The options are to edit the number or completely delete the data. You can bind another card on Binance using the same scenario as the first one.

Verification

You will not need to verify the payment instrument additionally. Also, the exchange will not charge a test payment.

Selecting the main payment method

This option is available only for plastic, tied to replenish the wallet. On P2P there is no possibility to choose the main payment method in the settings. When placing a transaction, users each time mark the preferred option for settlements.
