Binance is one of the fastest-growing crypto platforms with over 100 coins you can buy, sell and trade.
Uphold on the other hand features an integrated crypto wallet that can trade and swap between many cryptocurrencies.Â
Often times, you end up switching from one crypto exchange to another based on features or functionality. Whatever your reason is for moving your crypto, we will show you how.
Here's your step-by-step guide on how to transfer from Binance to Uphold!

Click the button above to download Uphold or sign up via the link here.
First, you'll enter some account credentials - your email and a new password, and your country of residence and citizenship. Then you'll need to read and click agree with Uphold's terms of service, assuming you do agree.
Next, enter your first and last name, the territory where you live, and your birth date. Then you'll choose your account username and Uphold will send you a confirmation email. Open the email to continue signing up.
After that, you'll need to sign up for 2-factor authentication, which Uphold uses for extra security for all its user accounts.
"2FA" works by requiring you to confirm inside of the authenticator app that it's actually you signing into Uphold. Uphold uses the Authy app for 2FA.
You'll have to download Authy and sign up using your phone number (this only takes a second or two).
Finally, when your Uphold account has been fully set up, you'll need to verify your identity.
This process doesn't take long either. You'll need to confirm your current address, and upload a photo of a valid ID like your driver's license, as well as a selfie to verify.
Now we need to locate and copy your Uphold wallet address to send your crypto into your new wallet. You are going to want to locate the wallet on Uphold associated with whatever crypto you are planning on sending over from Binance.
How To Find Your Wallet Address:
Lastly, using your copied Uphold address, sign into your Binance account to make the withdrawal:
Binance withdrawals usually take around a half-hour to an hour to process.
Keep in mind, Binance charges fees for transfers and it varies from crypto to crypto. You should review these fees yourself before initiating the transfer.
