KuCoin Futures API Setup

To connect your Coinrule account to KuCoin Futures, you will need to create an API Key.

1. First, you will need to sign in or create an account with KuCoin. You will also need to set up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). Once signed in and on the homepage, hover over the profile icon on the top right of the page and select “Futures API” from the drop-down menu.

2. Next, select “Create API” then name your API and set an API Passphrase. Make sure to keep a note of this.

Once you’ve named your API, set and remembered the Passphrase, enable the “Trade” permission. Next, set IP Restriction to “No” and Period of Validity to “Permanent”.

Once connected you will be able to automate your KuCoin Futures trades with Coinrule! Trade safely!

Important note: KuCoin recently changed their API policy and wallets that do not have IPs whitelisted need to be renewed every month. This is temporary and we will create an IP whitelisting process for Kucoin users soon.
