Step-by-Step Guide to Adding an Address
Adding approved addresses in your Gemini account enhances security by ensuring funds can only be withdrawn to pre-verified destinations.
Here’s how to do it based on the process:
- Access Account Settings: Start by going to Account. This is typically found in the top right corner of the app interface.
- Navigate to Preferences: Within the Account menu, select Preferences.
- Open Security Settings: From Preferences, find and choose Security settings.
- Go to Approved Addresses: Inside Security settings, locate and select Approved addresses. This section lists all the addresses you have previously approved for withdrawals.
- Initiate Adding a New Address: To add a new one, Tap “Add”. This button is usually located in the top right corner of the Approved addresses screen.
- Select the Asset: You will be prompted to Select the asset (the specific cryptocurrency, like Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) for which you are adding the address.
- Add the Address: Enter the recipient's wallet address accurately in the provided field. Double-check the address for any errors.
- Assign a Nickname: Give it a nickname. This is a helpful label (e.g., "My Hardware Wallet BTC", "Friends ETH Address") that makes it easy to identify the address later.
Once you have entered the details and confirmed, the address will be added to your list of approved addresses for that specific asset. Depending on your security settings, you might need to complete additional verification steps to finalize the addition.
