Transferring YNG from Step to Young Platform
In brief
Step is Young Platform's free app for learning about the crypto world and earning YNG tokens. The YNG you accumulate on Step can then be transferred to the Young Platform exchange.
How YNG rewards work
On Step, you earn YNG by collecting XP points, which in turn are earned in several ways:
answering quizzes on the crypto world and leveling up;
using Up&Downs by predicting market trends;
walking and completing challenges and Quests (with steps synced from Apple Health or Google Fit);
taking part in leaderboards against other users;
earning up to 20% cashback when buying through the app's Cashback section.
You can find dedicated guides in the Play with Step section of our support center.
How to link Step to Young Platform
To transfer YNG, you must first link the two accounts. If you don't have one yet, create an account on Young Platform (you can use a different email address from your Step account).
Method 1: From your Young Platform profile
This is the recommended method to set up the connection in advance.
Log in to Young Platform (via app or website).
Go to the Profile section.
Find the Step item and select Connect.
Follow the instructions to complete the link.
Method 2: Directly from Young Platform Step
You can also initiate the connection at the moment of your first transfer.
Open the Young Platform Step app.
Tap your YNG balance on the main screen.
Press the “Transfer to Young Platform” button.
The app will guide you through the linking process with your Young Platform account.
Note: Account linking is permanent and cannot be undone—make sure you use a single Step account and connect the correct one.
How to transfer YNG to Young Platform

For your first transfer, a few mandatory steps are required on Young Platform:
Verify your identity.

24 hours after completing these steps, you can request your first transfer. For future transfers, you can start directly from Step:
Select your YNG balance.
Tap Transfer.
Choose the amount of YNG.
Tap Create Gift Card to generate the code.
Tap Redeem Now and follow the steps to redeem the Gift Card on Young Platform.
Limits to remember:
Minimum transfer amount: 5 YNG;

You can only transfer from one Step account and exclusively to your linked Young Platform account.
Transferred YNG are credited to your Young (YNG) Wallet on Young Platform, where you can use them for trading or to join a Club.
