Ahead

Bybit for beginners: the first steps, in order

Eight short steps, from opening an account to your first withdrawal. Each one is checked against Bybit’s own help pages. None of them tells you what to buy.

Last updated on . All 8 steps are written. Ahead is a Bybit affiliate: how we make money.

  1. Step 1: Sign up

    Six steps on Bybit’s sign-up page, and the one box to check before you tap Sign Up.

  2. Step 2: Add a code you skippedOnly if you signed up without one

    An affiliate code can still be added within 14 days of signing up. After that, never.

  3. Step 3: Verify your identity

    An ID and a face scan, usually about 15 minutes. Needed before rewards and fiat deposits.

  4. Step 4: Secure your account and deposit

    Turn on two-factor authentication, then send crypto in: the right network, above the minimum.

  5. Step 5: Claim the welcome rewards

    Where rewards are claimed, and why a bonus is not cash you can withdraw.

  6. Step 6: Your first trade

    Buy and sell on spot, the simplest market. How to get in, how to get out, and what it costs.

    Goes with it: Order types compared

  7. Step 7: Withdraw

    Send money back out: networks, addresses, fees, and the checks worth doing twice.

  8. Step 8: Spot and avoid scams

    Fake support accounts, phishing messages, and the requests that are always a scam.

What this course is, and isn’t

It shows how Bybit works: the screens, the order of things, what each step costs and what can go wrong. It doesn’t promise profit, give signals or tell you when to trade. Crypto prices move fast, and leveraged contracts can lose your entire margin.
