Get started

How to get started on Meridian

Account setup through identity verification. Each step can be resumed.

  1. 1

    Open an account

    Email address and a password of at least 8 characters containing a letter and a number.

  2. 2

    Confirm your email

    A single-use link, valid for 24 hours. Confirming it signs you in and creates your account ledger.

  3. 3

    Turn on two-factor authentication (recommended)

    Optional but strongly recommended. When enabled, every withdrawal requires a code. Use an authenticator app, not SMS. Store your recovery codes offline.

  4. 4

    Verify your identity

    Five steps: legal name and date of birth, identity document, address, ID photo with selfie, and disclosures. Takes a few minutes and can be resumed.

  5. 5

    Fund your account

    You get a deposit address per asset per network. Verify the network before sending. Transfers over the wrong network cannot be recovered.

Before you start

Before you deposit

Networks are not interchangeable

The same ticker can exist on several networks. Sending over the wrong network results in permanent loss.

We hold your assets, pooled

Your balance is tracked in the Meridian ledger, not a wallet you control. This is standard for centralized exchanges.

Accounts and verification are open. Trading opens on licensing.
