Complete Guide: How to Generate Your Deriv API Token (2026 Update)

To start using automated trading systems on bot.maviatrade.com, you need to connect your Deriv account securely using an API token. This token acts as a secure bridge, allowing our bot to execute trades on your behalf without requiring your login credentials.

Follow this complete, step-by-step guide to generating your API token correctly.

Step 1: Log in or Create a Deriv Account

  1. If you are new or want to ensure your account is properly linked to our network for priority support, please open the Deriv platform using our official link below:
  2. Click here to access Deriv securely.
  3. Log in using your email and password, or complete the registration process if you don't have an account yet.

Step 2: Go to Security & Settings

  1. Once you are logged into your Deriv dashboard (Trader's Hub), look at the top right corner of your screen.
  2. Click on your Profile Icon or the Manage Account Settings gear icon.
  3. From the menu, select Security & settings.

Step 3: Navigate to the API Token Section

  1. In the left-hand sidebar or the main settings menu, scroll down until you find the Security category.
  2. Click on API token.

Step 4: Configure Token Scopes (Permissions)

  1. You will be prompted to select the access scopes for your new token. For bot.maviatrade.com to function properly, you must check the following boxes:
    • ✔️ Read: Allows the bot to view your balance and account status.
    • ✔️ Trade: Allows the bot to buy and sell contracts based on your automated strategy.
Security Note: Do NOT check the "Payments" or "Admin" boxes. Leaving them unchecked ensures that no one (not even the bot) can withdraw or transfer your funds. Your money remains 100% safe.

Step 5: Name and Create Your Token

  1. Scroll down to the Token name field.
  2. Enter a recognizable name for this token, for example: MaviaTradeBot2026.
  3. Click the Create button.

Step 6: Copy and Connect to MaviaTrade

  1. Your newly created API token will now appear in the list below. It will look like a long string of random letters and numbers.
  2. Click the Copy icon next to the token to copy it to your device's clipboard.
  3. Return to your dashboard on bot.maviatrade.com and paste the token into the designated API connection field to activate your bot.
