Book.io How Do I Mint? (Buy a book)

Step 1: create an account


  1. Go to https://app.book.io/.
  2. Click “Sign up” on the top right.
  3. Provide a valid email address and a password.
  4. Verify your email by clicking the link in the verification email.
  5. You’re in!

Issues?

  • No verification email received: wait 5 minutes, check your spam folder or try to create an account again with that email (if it lets you, it means you were not registered).
  • Forgot my password: use the password recovery function. If you don’t get an email with instructions, do the same as described above.

Step 2: get ready for the mint

  1. Once logged in, click “Mints” on the top right.
  2. You will see a list of books which mints are open or upcoming. Click “details” to see the book page.
  3. ALL the information is visible: number of books, price, wallet/transaction limit, policy ID and mint time.
  4. Transfer ADA to your wallet. Calculate your funding based on the PUBLIC price.
  5. If the mint is not open, you will see a timer. It will change automatically to “Mint now” when the sale opens. No need to refresh!

Step 3: mint ( 3 / 4)

  1. If there are still NFTs left, you will see the address and the amount of ADA to send.
  2. Send EXACTLY the amount of ADA indicated before the timer expires.
  3. In case of special pricing (OG club), you will pay full price and get your discount back with the NFT.
  4. Every transaction that was confirmed on the blockchain before the timer expires will be honored.
  5. Every transaction after that or with an incorrect ADA amount will be automatically refunded later.

 

Notes: No wallet connection is required to make the payment. Any wallet (including mobile) can send the ADA to the address and get the books.
