You’re just a few simple steps away from becoming an ICONOMI shareholder!

This guide will lead you throughout the depositing process. Please follow instructions carefully.

If you are still not completely sure what to do, please contact our support team and we will be more than happy to help you.

Setting up the account

  1. Go to the ICO website.
  2. Click on Sign up in the top right corner to create a new account.

3. Fill in the Register form, click I agree to the Terms of Use and complete the registration process by click on Sign up to login to your account.

If you are already signed up, just click Log in in the top right corner and log into your account.

For extra security use 2FA

Two factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your account by requiring you to sign in with something you know (ICONOMI password) and something you have (a code sent to your phone).

How does 2FA work?

Once 2FA is enabled, ICONOMI will require a second security code each time you sign in to your account. This security code is a six digit one time password generated by an Authenticator App. The app creates a new password every 30 seconds.

How to enable 2FA

1. Install the Google Authenticator application on your smartphone (click for iOS or Android ).

2. On your computer log in to ICONOMI and click on Two factor authentication in the Account menu.

3. Click Enable Two factor authentication.

4. Open the Google Authenticator app on your smartphone and point your phone at the QR code, which appeared on your screen.

5. Write down a 14 letter code that serves as a backup in case you lose your phone.

6. Now enter the 6 digit one-time verification code you got from Google Authenticator.

7. Enter your verification code and click Enable.

Your account is now protected by 2FA.

Do I have to enter the second security code (one-time password) everytime I log in to my ICONOMI account?

It’s up to you. You have two choices:

Enter the additional security code each time you log in

OR

… save the device in your account so that you don’t have to enter the second security code for 30 days on future logins. If you do this, please make sure it is done on your device. Never use it on public computers or on the devices of other people.

A deposit process

Once you are logged into your account, select the currency in which you wish to deposit by clicking on the START button next to it.

For Cryptocurrencies

The funds are collected in the 3 main cryptocurrencies — Bitcoin, Ether (example below) and Lisk. For all other cryptocurrencies choose the Shapeshift option in order to convert them into Bitcoin.

To start your transaction you can either scan the QR code or copy your Exchange Address on your computer. Then send your funds to the specified address.

You’ll get a notice while your transaction is in the receiving process.

While the transaction is in the receiving process, pending confirmation, you’ll see your transaction in your personal Transactions field.

It takes 6 confirmations to complete a Bitcoin deposit, 12 to complete an Ether deposit and 12 to complete a Lisk deposit.

Your transaction is completed when the deposit is marked as confirmed.

IMPORTANT: Please be sure to deposit the correct cryptocurrency to the specified Exchange Address. Sending any other currency to that address may result in the loss of your deposit.

(For example, if you want to deposit ETH, click the START button next to Ether and send only ETH to that Exchange Address)

YOU CAN SEND YOUR CRYPTOCURRENCY DEPOSIT TO THE SPECIFIED ADDRESS ONLY ONCE! The second transfer won’t be credited.

For fiat currencies, Dollar and Euro Deposit

We accept USD and EUR fiat currencies. Nevertheless, you can also deposit in other fiat currencies — CNY, JPY, CZK, RON, HRK, CAD, AUD, GBP, DKK, NOK, SEK, CHF, RUB, HUF, PLN, XDR and TRY.

If you wish to deposit in currency other than EUR or USD, we advise you to choose the USD option.

Use the necessary information on the payment order (see below) to proceed with payment from your bank account.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Don’t forget to use the correct Reference number, otherwise we won’t be able to link your deposit to your account.

Send us your payment confirmation document and the day you made the payment will be used for determining your bonus percentage.

Please consider that once your payment order is set up, it takes some time for us to receive your money. The time it takes depends on your bank, the currencies involved, the payment method you chose as well as bank holidays and weekends in both the sending and receiving countries. Usually, SEPA transfers can take 1–3 days, while an international wire transfer can take up to 7 days.

Overview

In order to see an overview of all your previous transactions, there is a Transactions field (at the bottom of the page) …

AND

…a record of your cumulative amount of deposited funds (converted in USD) and estimated amount of ICN to be received (at the top of the page).
