How do I get my Bitstamp API key?
API is the initially preferred method of integration.
Log in to your Bitstamp account.
Click on the Profile Icon in the upper-right corner and select Settings.
Now select API access on the left and press the green button Create new API key.
Create a new key and select only the Read account balances and transactions permission. Now finish by entering your 2FA code.
Your API key and Secret are now visible in the API-List. Copy them directly into Blockpit as described in the next steps.
To import your data, you must first create an Integration in the Blockpit Web App.
To do so, navigate to the menu item Integrations in your Dashboard and click on +Integration.Then select Bitstamp. However, do not complete the creation process of your Blockpit Integration until the key has been activated!
Activate the generated key and at last enter your Customer ID (can be found in the Account Settings - is called User ID) into your Blockpit Bitstamp Integration as Memo/Passphrase.
Confirm your entries by clicking Continue.
💡 When using subaccounts, each subaccount must be imported into a separate Blockpit Integration. To do this, you must create a new Blockpit Integration using a special subaccount API key.
Which data can be imported via Bitstamp API?
Your complete transaction history always serves as the basis for your tax report. Preferably, automatic API solutions are used to import your transactions. Our team is committed to implementing all API data provided by your exchange for you.
Using the following list, you can identify all products that are implemented:
Transactions
Supported
✅ Deposits & Withdrawals
(Inconsistencies between main- and subaccount trasnfers: Missing transfers from main to subaccount - subaccount transactions are already fully imported. Matching connectable/mergeable counterpart transactions have to be created manually in the mainaccount Integration)
✅ Spot Market Trades
✅ Fees
In case of missing transactions, you can help our support team via chat-request to include them in our import spectrum (if technically possible).
Missing transactions can be found by comparing the actual history of your exchange. You can add these subsequently as individual manual entries or by migrating your CSV data into our Excel template.
Synced Balance
Supported
✅ Complete import scope
If your Synced Balance is displayed incompletely, you can help our support team via chat-request to include it in our import spectrum (if technically possible).
How do I get my Bitstamp CSV file?
Download and upload your Bitstamp CSV file
The following steps will help you download your Bitstamp CSV file and import it into Blockpit:
Log into your Bitstamp account.
Navigate to Account and select Transaction history.
Click on Open export options and configure the export settings as follows:
Transaction types: Enable all transaction types.
Currencies: Select all currencies.
Date range: Choose a timeframe covering your entire transaction history (or full tax years).
Click on Export selection to initiate the export request.
Once the export is generated, click the download icon to save your
.csvfile.Click Export (or Generate / Submit) to initiate the export request.
Once the file status changes to Completed / Ready, click the Download icon to save your
.csvfile. We recommend renaming the file with its content type and timeframe (e.g., Bitstamp Trades 2023-01-01 - 2023-12-31.csv).
You can now import the file into Blockpit:
Option A – New Standalone CSV Integration: Click Add Integration > select Bitstamp > switch to the CSV tab.
Option B – Existing Integration (Consecutive Upload): Go to your Integrations tab, click Edit / Upload CSV on your existing Bitstamp integration as shown below.
Now drag the corresponding file(s) into the field displayed below and confirm your entry with Save to upload your transactions.
❗ When uploading your transactions into your Integration, the system does not check for transaction duplicates.
Transactions that already exist in your Integration must therefore be removed from the CSV file before uploading.
💡 If the upload of your original CSV file does not work, please try to update your internet browser version first or use an alternative browser to eliminate potential sources of error.
