Get verified
If you wish to use CoinJar's bank transfer and currency exchange features, we need you to complete ID verification. To begin, please sign in to your Identity Portal and follow the directions provided.
Keeping your CoinJar secure
At CoinJar, the security of your funds and personal details is our top priority. Besides using a strong password that is unique to your CoinJar, the best way to keep your cryptocurrencies secure is by enabling Enhanced Security (2FA).
Enhanced Security utilises two-factor authentication to ensure that whenever you’re attempting to sign in to your CoinJar, you will need to approve the sign in session from another of your personal devices. Even if someone is able to determine your email and password, they won’t be able to sign in without first providing this additional layer of authentication. We highly recommend it.
Transferring funds from your bank account into your CoinJar
You can deposit funds from your personal bank account into your CoinJar at any time. Once your funds are received and approved, they’ll automatically be added to your CoinJar. From here, you can transfer them across into your Bitcoin account to convert the funds into bitcoin, or to any of your other currency accounts.
Buying and selling cryptocurrencies
With funds available in your CoinJar, you can select ‘Convert’ to convert those funds in to any of the supported cryptocurrencies on CoinJar. CoinJar will step you through the process and provide you with a quote. Once you confirm this, your funds will be instantly converted.
Sending and receiving payments
Once you have funds available in your CoinJar, you can send it to others by exchanging CoinJar contact details, and creating a new payment. Adding people to your Contacts makes for an easy reference for future payments.
To receive payments from external wallets, you can view your receiving address within your CoinJar. This is a unique code that can be shared with anyone in the world, and any funds of that cryptocurrency type sent to this address will be added to your CoinJar. Of course, others can also provide you with their own receiving address for you to make a payment to their non-CoinJar wallet.
Withdrawing your funds
Once you have a bank account linked to your CoinJar, you can create a new transfer to that account to make a withdrawal. Withdrawals are processed instantly, and will reach your bank account within 1-2 business days.
