Before you start
You'll need:
- An Android phone (Google Play app — iOS not yet supported).
- A real Cardano wallet with at least 150 ADA — Eternl, Lace, Daedalus,
Yoroi, or Typhon.
- An email address you can read from your phone.
- About 10 minutes.
Why a real wallet — We strongly recommend NOT paying from
Revolut, Wirex, Binance, Coinbase, or any similar fintech / exchange. Their
ADA withdrawals batch every 30–90 minutes and your payment will arrive
after the price-lock window expires. It will still work, but it makes
onboarding slower and may need manual reconciliation. Real Cardano wallets
confirm in under 90 seconds.
Step 1
Install NoteG from Google Play (no longer possible — the app has been unpublished)
- You opened the Google Play Store on your phone.
- You searched for "NoteG" and tapped Install.
- Once installed, you opened the app.
- On first launch the app showed a Welcome screen. Tapping
"Subscribe" opened your browser at the NoteG
subscription page, which has since been taken offline.
Step 2
Subscribe and pay (no longer possible — subscriptions are closed)
In the browser, you saw a short form. It asked for:
- Your email address (the one you can read on this phone).
- Your name.
- Your country (we use this for VAT — required by law).
- Payment currency: ADA or USDM. Pick whichever you have in your
wallet.
Tap "Get quote". You'll see the exact amount to send, a
Cardano receive address, and a countdown timer. The price is locked for
30 minutes.
- Open your Cardano wallet (Eternl, Lace, etc.).
- Tap Send. Paste the receive address.
- Enter the exact amount shown on the subscription page.
- Confirm and send. Cardano confirmations take 30–90 seconds.
Stay on the page — The status updates from "pending" to
"paid" automatically once your transaction confirms. No need to refresh.
Step 3
Receive your tenant credentials by email
Within 2–3 minutes of your payment confirming, we send you an email
with:
- Your personal NoteG URL (looks like
abc12345.posada.io).
- An API token (a long hex string).
- A wallet receive address — this is where you'll fund your bot.
Check spam — First-time emails sometimes land in spam.
If you don't see it within 5 minutes, check the spam folder and mark it
Not Spam.
Step 4
Pair your phone with your bot
- Open the URL from the email on this same phone OR on your laptop.
- An Auth dialog appears. Paste the API token from the email.
- Tap "Pair new device". A QR code appears on the
screen.
- Open the NoteG app on your phone (the one you installed in Step 1).
- Tap "Pair" in the app, then scan the QR code.
- The app and the bot will show a 4-digit confirmation code. Make sure
both show the same code, then tap Confirm on both
sides.
Your phone is now paired. From now on, every change you make in the app
(strategy parameters, dry-run toggle, manual sells) is cryptographically
signed before it reaches the bot. Nobody can impersonate your phone.
Step 5
Fund your bot
Your bot has its own wallet on the server. Send ADA to the wallet
address shown in the email (or in the app under Banking → Receive). You
decide how much:
- Minimum 150 ADA — below this, fees eat too much of
each trade.
- Sensible starter: 200–500 ADA.
- Maximum: only as much as you'd be comfortable losing
in a worst case.
Honest scope — The bot signs trades on the server. We
take strong precautions, but anything held on the server is at higher
risk than ADA in your personal wallet. Read the disclosure email we
sent — and don't put in more than you can write off.
Step 6
Start trading
By default the bot starts in "DRY RUN" — it picks
trades but does not actually send anything to the blockchain. You can
watch it for a day or two to make sure you like its decisions.
- Open the NoteG app on your phone.
- Open the MODE card on the Home tab.
- Toggle DRY RUN → LIVE. Your phone will ask for
biometric confirmation (fingerprint / face). Approve.
The bot is now live. Every trade will appear in the Activity Log in real
time. From the app you can change strategies, adjust safety limits,
pause individual positions, force a sell, or stop the bot entirely —
anytime.
Refunds and support
If something is wrong with your purchase, email
support@posada.io within 14 days.
Include:
- The transaction hash from your wallet (the long string after you
sent).
- The Cardano address you want the refund sent to.
We refund to the original sending address within 5 business days, minus
the network fee.
What if I run into trouble?
Common issues and quick fixes:
- Email never arrived: Check spam folder. If still not
there after 10 minutes, email
support@posada.io with your
payment transaction hash.
- QR code won't scan: Make sure the phone camera is
focused. Move it slightly closer or further. Bright screen helps. Try
refreshing the laptop browser to regenerate the QR.
- Strategy toggle does nothing: Pull-to-refresh in the
app. If the bot is still in DRY RUN you have to flip MODE to LIVE first
before strategies can fire trades.
- Bot says insufficient funds: Add more ADA to the bot's
wallet, or lower the per-trade size in each strategy under Settings.
