Step by step
Getting your Binance.US API keys
- 1Check your stateBinance.US does not serve 16 US states (Alaska, Connecticut, Georgia, Maine, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Texas, Vermont, Washington, plus US territories). Kansas and Wisconsin are crypto-only (no USD).
- 2Open Binance.US on a DESKTOP browserThe Binance.US mobile app does not show this menu — you must use a desktop or laptop.
- 3Tap "Create API"Name the key something like "Soar Bot". Enter your 2-factor code when prompted.
Soar Bot - 4Click the email verification linkBinance.US sends a confirmation email. Open it in a new tab and click the link. Then come back to the Binance.US tab.
- 5Copy both valuesYou get an API Key and a Secret — two 64-character random strings. The secret is shown ONCE only.
- 6Set permissions
- Turn ON: Spot Trading
- Leave OFF: Withdrawals (NEVER turn on)
- Leave OFF: IP whitelist (would block Soar bots)
Permissions
What to enable — and what to leave OFF
✓Enable these
- Spot Trading
✕Never enable these
- Withdrawals (NEVER turn on)
Why this matters:Soar only ever needs read + place-order permissions. If you give a key withdraw or transfer access, anyone with that key could move funds — including a security risk if your machine is ever compromised. Disabling withdraw on the key itself means even a worst-case leak can't drain your account.

Security & trust
Where your keys live
Soar passes your Binance.USkeys straight from your browser into YOUR Cloudflare Worker. Soar's servers see them once during the ~30-second deploy window, then never again.
The bot that talks to Binance.US runs on the free Cloudflare Workers tier in your own Cloudflare account. You see + control everything from your Cloudflare dashboard. You can rotate the keys, pause the bot, or destroy the Worker at any time — Soar has zero ability to undo that.
