We recommend that you hold onto your own bitcoin private keys. In order to do so, you must have a wallet, either on your phone or desktop or generated through a hardware wallet.

For your mobile and desktop needs, we have compiled a list of wallets we recommend: Veriphi's Wallet Analysis.

We have also compared the Coldcard, Trezor and Ledger hardware wallets: Comparing Hardware Wallets

For more users seeking a more advanced and secure bitcoin storage setup, we have also created a multisignature scheme tutorial, found here: Creating a Multi-Signature Wallet

You can always contact us if you’d like additional assistance or a more advanced or custom setup.

In order to fund your account, you’ll first need to create a deposit request in your Veriphi account.

To do so, simply select 'Deposit CAD' and enter the amount desired.

Select your preferred deposit method:

- Interac E-transfer: fastest method, but your transfer limit is $3,000 unless you contact your bank to raise your transfer limit (maximum $10,000).
- Wire Transfer: best for large transfers but can take between 1 to 3 business days to process. Some banks will charge you a fee.
- Intrabank Transfer: if you have a bank account with RBC or Desjardins, you can transfer up to $5,000 quickly, for free and online. You can send up to $100,000 with this method, but you must do so in person.

We will only accept Canadian dollars and transfers that are sent from your personal bank account.

Funds sent after 5pm EST might take a little longer to process depending on transfer method or will be processed the next business day.

Joint bank accounts are also accepted, you must just inform us and provide the ID of your partner.

Funds sent from corporate bank accounts are accepted, you must just fill out the corporate account information during the verification process of your account.
