Step-by-Step Participation Guide

This guide consists of two parts:

• Part 1: A guide that leads you through our whitelisting / KYC process. Since we do our token sale under German law, this process is required for any contribution. Read the MADANA Whitelisting Guide for more details.
• Part 2: A guide that leads you through the contribution process.

If you are already whitelisted, skip Part 1 and continue with Part 2 below.

Part 1: Whitelisting / KYC Process

Whitelisting — Step 1

• Go to https://www.madana.io and click on JOIN PRE-SALE.
  Now you should be on https://tokensale.madana.io

Whitelisting — Step 2

• Enter your email address and click on START REGISTRATION.
  Your email address is necessary to access your contribution account later on. Make sure to stay in control of your email account and make sure nobody else has access. Register with only one email account. Multiple registrations for the same individual will result in all registrations being rejected.

Whitelisting — Step 3

Our invitation to acquire tokens is exclusively addressed to entrepreneurs. It is not possible for us to check whether you are actually acting in exercise of your trade, business or profession. Your confirmation that you are making the investment as part of your professional or business activity means that the legal requirements for consumer protection in e-commerce do not apply. For example, the 14-day right of withdrawal granted by law does not apply to entrepreneurs. Therefore, your purchase decision as entrepreneur is final.
• Optional: If you want to receive marketing & advertising material from MADANA in the future you will need to read the “Marketing Consent Policy” and accept by clicking on the fourth checkbox.

Whitelisting — Step 5
