Yellow.pro supports two ways to access the platform:
  1. Connecting an external wallet
  2. Signing in using Google
Both methods let you trade on the platform, but the balance structure and transfer flow work differently. This guide explains the main differences and gives the complete deposit, transfer, and withdrawal flow for each account type.
You can connect supported wallets such as MetaMask, Rabby, Phantom, or WalletConnect directly to Yellow.pro. Deposits and withdrawals happen directly through the connected wallet. External wallet users do NOT use Account Balance.Deposit flowExternal Wallet → Trading Account → Perpetual AccountDeposits go directly into the Trading Account. If you want to use funds for Perpetual trading, transfer them internally to the Perpetual Account.
  1. Initiate a deposit from Yellow.pro.
  2. Approve the spending limit in case of ERC20 transaction (like USDT)
  3. Approve the deposit transaction in your connected wallet.
  4. Wait for on-chain execution.
  5. Funds appear in your Trading Account.
  6. Transfer to the Perpetual Account if needed for perpetual trading.
Withdrawal flowPerpetual Account → Trading Account → External Wallet If funds are currently inside the Perpetual Account, they must first be transferred back to the Trading Account before withdrawal.
  1. Go to the Withdrawal page.
  2. Select the asset and amount.
  3. Funds are sent directly to your connected wallet.
  4. No recipient address needed — your wallet is already connected.

Important Things to Know

  • External wallet users interact directly through their connected wallet. They do not use Account Balance.
  • Google Sign-in users have an additional Account Balance layer (Yellow Wallet) for deposits and withdrawals.
  • Spot ↔ Perpetual transfers are internal and normally instant for both account types.
  • Account Balance ↔ Trading Account transfers are processed on-chain and may take time.
  • Funds locked in active orders or positions are not transferable.
  • Blockchain transactions cannot be reversed once completed.
For Google Sign-in users, withdrawals can be sent to any external wallet address on a supported blockchain. There are two separate things to keep in mind:
  • Wrong address or unsupported blockchain — possible loss of funds. If assets are withdrawn to an incorrect address, or to a blockchain Yellow.pro doesn’t support, the funds may be permanently unrecoverable. Always double-check the destination address and network before confirming a withdrawal.
  • Account-abstraction detection — a display limitation, not a loss. Your Yellow Wallet is a smart (account-abstraction) wallet. External apps or wallets that don’t support account abstraction may not automatically detect its balance, so your funds can appear “missing” in those apps even though they are safe. Contact the destination app support for resolution.

Which Option Should You Choose?

  • External wallet connection is generally better for users already familiar with crypto wallets and direct wallet interaction. It’s more straightforward since there’s no Account Balance layer.
  • Google Sign-in is designed for users who want a simpler onboarding experience without manually connecting a wallet first. Your Yellow Wallet is created automatically and is also accessible on Yellow.com.
Both methods provide access to the same trading platform and features. Choose whichever feels most comfortable for your workflow.
