Basics
Identity verification
One of the ways to ensure security on Binance P2P is through identity verification. Both buyers and sellers need to complete this before using Binance P2P. Here's a simple guide on how to complete identity verification.
Platform Rules
Follow the platform rules. Here are the most important ones:
all stated prices are final and the seller has no right to demand additional fees;
users must pay in one payment and in an amount corresponding to the order amount.
For a complete list, please refer to our P2P Platform Transaction Rules and Binance P2P Merchant Guide.
Trading conditions
When choosing an offer, carefully read the requirements of the seller or buyer who posted the ad.
On Binance P2P, anyone can specify their preferred terms for a trade. By opening an order, the counterparty agrees to these terms. If the terms of the deal do not suit you, it is better to choose another offer.
The terms of the transaction may indicate a specific bank for payment, a request to leave a comment when making a payment, the need for additional verification, etc.
Payment window
Before placing an order, pay attention to the time specified in the Payment Window field. If you want to buy cryptocurrency, then this is the allotted time to pay. If you are selling cryptocurrency, this is the time within which the buyer will have to make the payment.
In addition, for sellers, an order can only be canceled after the time specified in the counterparty’s announcement has expired.
For P2P buyers
Limits
When choosing an offer, always pay attention to the limit set by the seller in the offer. Although there is a minimum limit depending on the location of trade, the seller himself determines the minimum and maximum amounts in his advertisements.
Studying user statistics
User statistics are available on Binance P2P. It allows you to see the number of transactions made by the user and the percentage of successfully completed transactions. Before responding to an ad, pay attention to the number of transactions completed, as this indicates the level of responsibility of the seller.
In addition, on the seller's page you can check how quickly they process orders.
For more convenient and secure trading, Binance P2P marks verified merchants with a yellow icon. Such merchants have undergone additional verification and proven that they have experience in P2P cryptocurrency trading.
Payment
Find advertisements based on the payment method you need
Many people believe that the payment method is one of the most significant factors when choosing an offer. To quickly find listings that support your payment method, use the Binance P2P filter.
We have added a bank transfer option as it is one of the most popular payment methods.
Use the payment method specified in the ad
To avoid delays in interbank transactions, buyers are advised to make payments through the seller's bank. The preferred payment method is specified in the terms and conditions of the ad.
Do not use third party accounts for payment
According to the rules of the Binance P2P platform, the use of third-party accounts for payment is prohibited. You must be the owner of the account/account from which the payment is sent to the seller.
Don't ask the seller to send cryptocurrency before payment is completed
The Binance P2P platform uses an escrow system to ensure the safety of your assets until payment is made. If you request a cryptocurrency transfer before the payment has been successfully processed, it may be considered fraud and your account may be blocked.
Cancel
When an order is open, the seller's assets are frozen. This means that he will not be able to trade them with others. If you decide to abandon the trade, be sure to cancel the order.
For P2P sellers
Specify your conditions
If there is little information in the ad, buyers may refuse the deal. To prevent temporary freezing of assets, when creating a sale announcement, fill out the “Conditions” section in detail.
Don't forget to indicate your preferred payment methods (for example, bank cards), whether additional verification is required (and instructions for its implementation), and what region the buyers live in (if you want to know about inter-regional commissions).
All this information will constitute the trading terms and will be displayed in the sale advertisement.
Chat directly on Binance P2P
Many orders are canceled because buyers are unable to contact sellers for clarification before paying.
To communicate with the buyer, use the built-in chat in Binance P2P. It will be available immediately after placing the order. When opening an order, greet the user, ensure they are online, and answer any questions necessary to complete the transaction.
