Tool: How to set up an API Key on Binance

The Mintfort portfolio tracker requires API keys of your exchange accounts to sync your portfolio constantly.

Setting up an API key in your Binance account is no rocket science. Here is how you do it:

First of all login to your account. In the menu bar you need to go into your account settings. Here, a section called API Setting is shown. Click on it!

In the API settings following section is shown on top:

Fill in your desired API key name and create your key. You will receive an email from Binance afterwards to confirm the creation:

Click the confirmation button in the email.

Congrats! You just generated your API Key. The key consists of two parts, the API key and the Secret key. To use the Mintfort app properly, you will need both of them.

After being forwarded to Binance again you are seeing your key and the connected secret key now. Safe them somewhere! Binance will not show them to you in the future again.

Please make sure that you are disabling the „Withdraw Funds“ option as long as you want to use Mintfort only as a portfolio tracker. It is originally recommended by Binance too.
