Binance Status Note
Binance support is in the pipeline
Binance integration is fully planned and is being built as part of QARI's multi-exchange rollout. It will be available shortly after the initial Bybit launch. If you are setting up for the first time now, use Bybit. The instructions in this guide will be accurate once Binance support goes live. The connection flow is identical in structure to Bybit.
This article is here so you know exactly what to do when Binance becomes available. You will not need to re-read it from scratch: the process is the same as Bybit with minor differences noted below.
Before You Start
To connect Binance to QARI you need the following ready before generating your API key.
Checklist before you begin
- Binance account created and email verified
- Identity verification (KYC) completed on Binance
- Two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled on Binance
- USDT deposited to your Binance spot wallet
- QARI account created and Binance shown as available in Settings
Step 1: Create Your API Key
Log in to Binance and navigate to the API management section. The path is:
- 1
Click "Create API" on the API Management page.
- 2
Select "System generated" for the key type. This is more secure than user-defined keys.
- 3
Set a label for the key. Use something clear, for example: QARI-Spot.
- 4
Binance will send a verification code to your email and 2FA device. Complete both verification steps.
- 5
Your API Key and Secret Key will be displayed. Copy them immediately. Binance shows the Secret Key only once.
Step 2: Configure Permissions
After creating the key, Binance allows you to edit its permissions. Configure them exactly as follows.
WARNING: Never enable withdrawal permissions
QARI never needs and never requests withdrawal permissions. Never enable "Enable Withdrawals" on any API key used with QARI. This applies to Binance, Bybit, and every other exchange.
Enable Reading (Account Info, Balances)
ENABLEEnable Spot & Margin Trading
ENABLE (Spot Only)Enable Futures
DISABLEEnable Withdrawals
DISABLEEnable Universal Transfer
DISABLEEnable Margin Loan, Repay and Transfer
DISABLENote: "Enable Spot and Margin Trading" covers spot orders. You are not enabling margin trading by selecting this option. Binance groups them together but QARI only places spot orders.
Step 3: Add IP Whitelist
In the API edit page, find the "Restrict access to trusted IPs only" field. This is strongly recommended. Enter the QARI server address so the key can only be used from the platform's servers.
QARI Server
api.qari.trade
If Binance requires a numeric IP rather than a hostname, the current QARI server IP is visible in your dashboard under Settings. Use the numeric IP if the hostname is not accepted.
Step 4: Paste into Dashboard
- 1
Copy your Binance API Key.
- 2
Copy your Binance Secret Key.
- 3
Open your QARI dashboard at app.qari.trade.
- 4
Navigate to Settings, then the "Exchange" tab.
- 5
Click "Connect Exchange" and choose Binance from the list.
- 6
Paste both values into the fields provided.
- 7
Click "Save Connection".
Step 5: Verify Connection
QARI tests your Binance API key immediately after saving by making a read-only balance check. The connection status will update within a few seconds.
Connected
QARI can read your Binance balance and place spot orders. You are ready to configure risk settings.
Invalid Credentials
The API Key or Secret is wrong. Regenerate the key on Binance and paste the new values.
Permissions Error
The key does not have the correct permissions. Check that Spot Trading is enabled on the Binance API management page.
