How to sign in with qID

"Sign in with qID" proves you control a BTX address — and that address is your account on the site. No email, no password. There are three ways to do it; pick whichever matches where your wallet is. They all end the same way: you approve in your wallet, and you are signed in.

🛡️ A sign-in can never move funds. A qID login is signed in a different cryptographic domain than transactions — the worst any site can ever get from it is a login for itself, never your coins.

phone Scan with phone

Your wallet is on your phone. This is the quickest way.

  1. Open the dialog on the site and stay on the "Scan with phone" tab. A QR code is shown, with a countdown — it refreshes itself for your security.
  2. Open your qID mobile wallet and use its scanner. Either the wallet's built-in scanner or its universal QR scanner will recognize a qID code.
  3. Check the site name and approve. Your wallet shows you which site is asking and which address you'll sign in with. Approve it.
  4. You're in. The browser you scanned from signs in automatically within a second or two. You can put your phone away.
Which wallets? The bonuz mobile wallet scans qID codes. Any qID-compatible mobile wallet works the same way — the QR carries everything the wallet needs.

desktop Desktop wallet (copy & paste)

Your wallet is a desktop app on the same computer. This works with every version and needs no special setup.

  1. Copy the sign-in request. On the "Desktop wallet" tab, click Copy — it copies the request shown in the box.
  2. Open your BTX PQ Wallet and go to Settings → qID Sign-In. Paste the request there.
  3. Review and sign. The wallet shows you the site and the address, and signs with your post-quantum key. It gives you back a proof.
  4. Paste the proof back into the site's dialog and click Verify and sign in. Done.
Why copy-paste? It's the most compatible path — nothing to install or register, and it works even on a locked-down machine. Take your time; the desktop tab won't expire the request out from under you mid-signing.

1-click Open in wallet

Your BTX PQ Wallet is installed on this computer and you want one-click connect — no copying.

  1. Click "Open in BTX PQ Wallet". Your browser asks permission to open the wallet app, then launches it with the request.
  2. Approve in the wallet. Pick which wallet signs, review the site, and sign.
  3. You're in — the site picks it up automatically, no paste needed.
Heads up — this needs the notarized wallet build. One-click "Open in wallet" relies on your operating system knowing which app handles qID links. On macOS this is fully reliable once you're running a notarized release of the BTX PQ Wallet from the App Store or the signed download. If clicking does nothing, or you see a "file can't be found" message, your wallet build isn't registered yet — use "Desktop wallet" (copy & paste) above instead; it always works. This is a wallet-installation matter, not a problem with the site or your account.

Still stuck? The safest fallback is always Desktop wallet copy-and-paste — it works everywhere. Try the whole flow with no wallet at all on the live demo.
