    **Step 1: Use the Referral Link**

    * To enable reduced trading fees and full bot functionality, you must create your account through the unCoded referral link:
      * **Referral Link:** [**Click Here to Register on Binance**](https://bit.ly/B-20Fee)
    * By signing up via this link, you’ll pay **20% less in trading fees** on Binance. Plus, your unCoded bot profit share drops from 30% to **20%** when you register with the referral link. Ensure you complete the signup process using this link, as it’s mandatory for unCoded compatibility.

    **Step 2: Sign Up on Binance**

    1. Visit the Binance website via the [referral link](https://bit.ly/B-20Fee).
    2. Click on **Sign Up** and choose your preferred method:
       * **Email:** Enter your email address and create a secure password.
       * **Phone Number:** Use your phone number to register.
    3. Enter the referral code if it’s not prefilled.
    4. Agree to Binance’s terms and conditions and click **Create Account**.

    **Step 3: Verify Your Identity**

    * Complete the **KYC** (Know Your Customer) **process** to enable full trading capabilities:
      1. Provide your government-issued ID (e.g., passport, driver’s license).
      2. Upload a selfie for identity verification.
      3. Submit proof of address if required.
    * Verification usually takes a few hours but may vary based on your region.
