New to Coinfig? Here is the shortest path from sign-up to your first figures.

After you sign up, Overview shows how far you are from your tax report: three steps. Coinfig is read-only. It can never trade, withdraw or move your funds.

Step one: pick where you keep your crypto. Coinfig works out how to import it. Choose your exchange, Wallet address for your own wallet, or upload a file. Here, choose Luno and upload the file you exported from it. Help with this step sits at the top of every screen.

Coinfig then imports and checks your transactions. A file usually takes under a minute, longer for large files. The count updates live as your transactions arrive. Capital gains, income and your transaction count fill in after that first import. Your jurisdiction and reporting currency start from where you are. Check them in Preferences.

Pick your exchange. Let it import. Check your settings.
