Getting started
Begin by creating your free account, confirming your email and completing the identity check. The verification step uses standard Canadian KYC providers and typically resolves in under fifteen minutes for residents holding a provincial ID and a recent utility bill.
Linking your first exchange
- From your exchange (Binance, Bybit, OKX, KuCoin, Bitstamp, Bitget or Gate.io), create a new API key.
- Enable spot trading permissions. Leave withdrawals disabled.
- Where possible, whitelist Zeongrow's outbound IP range. You will find the current list in your dashboard.
- Paste the API key and secret into Zeongrow's "Connect exchange" form. The link is tested instantly.
Launching your first bot
The simplest first bot is a small DCA into BTC/USDT or ETH/USDT. From the dashboard, choose a quote currency, a budget, a frequency and a target deviation. The bot will begin its first deal on the next scheduled tick and log every order placed.

API permissions cheat sheet
| Permission | Required? | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Read | Yes | Pull balances and order history. |
| Spot trade | Yes | Place and cancel orders for the bot strategy. |
| Withdraw | No | We never need this — leave it off. |
| Futures | Optional | Only enable if you intend to use leveraged Smart Trade. |
Troubleshooting common issues
If a bot stops placing orders, ninety per cent of the time the cause is on the exchange side: an API key expired, the IP whitelist changed, or balance dropped below the minimum order size. Open the deal log in the dashboard and the error from the exchange will be quoted verbatim.
