How to Trade on AQRU

And while you can exchange tokens, you won’t exactly be able to do it in the manner of other prominent exchanges, like with spot or futures trading.

How to Trade on AQRU

Step 1. Register

• To be able to trade on this platform, you will obviously have to set up an account on it first. So, to do that, you can use either its mobile application or its website. Here, we will be using its website as an example. So, simply head over to its official website and click on the Sign-Up button at the top, which will then direct you to the registration page.
• Here, you can only enter your email address, as mobile numbers are not currently available as an option. So, add it to the appropriate field, after which you will have to set up a strong password. Make sure that it is at least 10 characters in length, with a blend of lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers, special symbols, etc.
• If you want to, you can also add a referral code if someone happens to have invited you to this platform. This is because entering referral codes can generally be favorable, as both the one registering and the one to whom that code belongs can benefit from various bonuses. Still, if you don’t have a code, you can either skip this step completely or look for one online.

Following this, just go through its User Agreement or Terms of Service, enter the verification that may be sent to the email address you entered earlier, and that’s it; you are done with registration here.

Step 2. Complete KYC

• Once you have registered on AQRU, you will need to complete the KYC process it comes with. So, click on Verify Your Identity to get it started, which will then direct you to a screen where you will have to enter a few basic details about yourself. 
• These details, for instance, will include all of your names, date of birth, place, and country of birth, existing country of residence and citizenship, and finally, your address, along with your source of funds, your future plans concerning AQRU, and your occupation.
• After filling in the information mentioned earlier, the following step would entail uploading pictures of the relevant documentation and a video to essentially prove what you entered earlier. These documents will include your passport, utility bills, government-issued documents, and bank statements.
• Once everything has been submitted, an AQRU team member will review everything you have sent in your application and then contact you later regarding the results. If, by any chance, you are facing certain difficulties or have some questions, you can get in touch with their customer support team for additional help regarding this matter.

Step 3. Add fund

• Now that you have gone through its KYC process and have gotten your account properly verified, we can move on to discussing how you can deposit some cryptocurrencies on this platform from another wallet or exchange. So, once you select the relevant option for it, you will be provided with a set of cryptocurrencies that you can deposit within your AQRU wallet.
• Once you have chosen your token, you will be given both the wallet address and the QR code. You can use either of them here, but if you are using the wallet address, for instance, then you will have to simply paste this address on the withdrawal field of any external exchange or wallet.
• However, one thing that needs to be noted is that, as of this moment, only the ERC-20 network is supported for the tokens you can select, excluding BTC, which only has its native network as an option.
• So, whenever you are transferring funds from an external exchange or wallet, make sure to choose the same token and network there as well, i.e., either ERC-20 or BTC’s native network. Otherwise, your funds will be permanently lost.

Step 4. Buy crypto

Earlier, we discussed how you could fund your account through those standard cryptocurrency deposits. Here, instead, we will look at how that can be done directly on AQRU through fiat.

• Fiat currency
  • While AQRU does provide fiat currency support, you can only use a handful of currencies here, so the support is limited. The same also holds true for cryptocurrency support, which barely exceeds 10 tokens.
• Debit/Credit card
  • By pressing the Pay by Card option, you can directly buy cryptocurrencies from AQRU through your debit or credit card. However, you will be directed to MoonPay, which is an AQRU partner.
  • Following that, choose the token you want to purchase and how much of it, and then finally, choose the payment method. As of this moment, AQRU only supports debit or credit card purchases that are made via MoonPay.
  • Your fees and the amount you will end up receiving will then be shown. And due to the volatility of the cryptocurrency landscape, MoonPay will only hold specific prices for approximately 10 seconds. Your quote will be updated automatically once that time and price have passed.

Step 5. Start trading

Now that you have your account well and truly funded, you can begin trading on this exchange immediately. However, as stated previously, AQRU is not like your standard cryptocurrency exchange. So, the only thing you can do is more or less swap cryptocurrencies with each other. Still, it does support fiat currencies here as well, so you can swap cryptocurrencies for fiat and vice versa, which is something you don’t often see.
