KuCoin lending setup: API credentials, USDT and activation checks
Confirm access to Crypto Lending Pro before connecting KuCoin. LendPace’s integration currently supports USDT and requires three API credentials.
Create a dedicated key
Save the Key, Secret and chosen Passphrase securely. Enable necessary general read and KuCoin Earn permissions, keeping withdrawals, universal transfer and unrelated permissions off. If the account’s labels differ, verify them in the official interface instead of enabling everything.
Complete required verification and IP restrictions. The Passphrase is not your trading password or LendPace login password.
Connect and start
- Add a KuCoin connection in account settings with all three credentials.
- Save, test and enable the key. The first saved lending key starts an eligible account’s 14-day trial.
- Select KuCoin and USDT in My Lending, then review available funds, strategy and limits.
- Start explicitly and inspect execution records and KuCoin subscription status.
The tool minimum is currently 100 USDT, subject to exchange requirements too. Funds held in another account or already committed may not be available.
Stopping and reconciliation
Stopping does not confirm redemption is complete. The service attempts to handle relevant subscriptions, but permissions, API failures or pool liquidity can delay or prevent completion. Check KuCoin directly.
Use the exchange’s interest records to reconcile earnings. Unsynchronized data is not zero income, and subscribed capital is not necessarily fully lent.
