# Set Up Your Jua Predictions Account

> Learn how to create your Jua Predictions account, verify your profile, link a payment method, and configure your notification preferences.

Before you place your first trade, it's worth taking a few minutes to make sure your account is fully configured. This page covers everything from initial sign-up to payment methods, notification preferences, and security settings — so you can trade with confidence from day one.

<Note>
  All account actions, including sign-up, deposits, trading, and withdrawals, are performed through the Jua Predictions website. There is no standalone mobile app — use your mobile browser for the best experience on a phone or tablet.

## Creating Your Account

To create your account, go to juapredictions.com and click **Sign In**. You can sign up using:

* **Email and password** — Enter your email address, choose a password, and verify your email with the confirmation link sent to your inbox.
* **Social login** — Sign in with a supported provider (such as Google) for a faster, password-free setup.

Once you complete sign-up, your Jua Predictions profile is created automatically. You are signed in and ready to explore the platform straight away — no additional registration steps are required.

## Your Profile

Your profile is your public identity on Jua Predictions. You can customise the following from the **Profile** section in your account settings:

* **Display name** — The name other community members see on leaderboards and public activity feeds. Choose something you're comfortable sharing publicly.
* **Avatar** — Upload a profile picture to personalise your account. If you signed up via a social provider, your social avatar may be imported automatically.

<Tip>
  Keep your display name appropriate and unique. It appears alongside your trading activity in any community-facing features on the platform.

## Payment Methods

Jua Predictions supports two deposit and withdrawal rails. You can link one or both to your account depending on your location and preference.

**M-Pesa (Kenya)**
M-Pesa is the primary payment rail for KES deposits and withdrawals. To link M-Pesa:

1. Go to **Wallet → Payment Methods** and select **Add M-Pesa**.
2. Enter your M-Pesa registered phone number.
3. Complete a small verification transaction to confirm ownership of the number.

Once verified, you can deposit funds instantly using the M-Pesa push flow and request KES withdrawals directly to your M-Pesa account.

**Crypto Wallet (Polygon USDC)**
For crypto deposits, Jua Predictions accepts USDC on the Polygon network. To use this rail:

1. Go to **Wallet → Payment Methods** and select **Add Crypto Wallet**.
2. Copy your unique Polygon deposit address or scan the QR code.
3. Send USDC from your external wallet to that address on the Polygon network.

<Warning>
  Only send USDC on the **Polygon** network to your deposit address. Sending funds on a different network (such as Ethereum mainnet or Solana) may result in permanent loss of funds.
</Warning>
