# Connect Binance Futures to VOOI Ultra

This guide explains how to connect Binance Futures trading to VOOI Ultra.

To trade through VOOI Ultra, you need to create a Binance API key and enable the required trading permissions.

## Before You Start

Make sure that:

* your Binance account is verified
* two-factor authentication is enabled
* Binance Futures is enabled on your account

## Create a Binance API Key

1. Log in to Binance at <https://www.binance.com/>
2. Go to **API Management**.
3. If the **Default Security Controls** checkbox is selected, clear it:

   **By checking this box, all existing API Key(s) on your master account and sub-accounts will be subject to Default Security Controls.**

   Complete Binance security verification if prompted.
4. Click **Create API**.
5. Create a new API key.

   Example name: `VOOI Ultra`
6. Complete Binance security verification.
7. Copy the **API Key** and **Secret Key**.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Important:** Copy the Secret Key when Binance shows it. It may not be available again after the API key is saved.
{% endhint %}

8. After **Default Security Controls** have been cleared and the required Binance security verification has been completed, open the API key permissions and enable:
   1. **Enable Futures**
   2. **Enable Spot & Margin Trading**

{% hint style="info" %}
**Important:** Enable these permissions only after updating the Default Security Controls setting and completing the required verification. If the steps are done in the opposite order, Binance may not apply or save the trading permissions correctly.
{% endhint %}

9. Do not enable:
   1. **Enable Withdrawals**
10. Save the API key settings.

## Add the API Key to VOOI Ultra

1. Open VOOI Ultra at <https://ultra.vooi.io/>
2. Go to the Binance enabling flow.
3. Paste the **API Key**.
4. Paste the **Secret Key**.
5. Save the connection.

After the connection is saved, Binance Futures trading will be available in VOOI Ultra if the API key permissions are configured correctly.

## If Permissions Are Not Available

If Binance does not allow trading permissions, follow the security steps shown in Binance.

Depending on the account, Binance may require IP restrictions, a self-generated API key, or changes to Default Security Controls.

If **Enable Futures** is not available, make sure Binance Futures was enabled before the API key was created. If needed, create a new API key after enabling Binance Futures.
