How to Connect Coinstash to Summ
Summ is a crypto tax platform that automatically imports your Coinstash trading history, calculates your capital gains, and generates tax reports ready for your accountant or the ATO. Setup takes about 5 minutes.
Step 1 — Add your Coinstash account in Summ
Log in to Summ and navigate through the onboarding flow: confirm your country, then click Add accounts. On the Import data step, search for Coinstash and click it to open the import panel.
You'll see two options: Sync via API (recommended) and Upload File. Select Sync via API.

Step 2 — Generate a read-only API key in Coinstash
You'll need to create a read-only API key in Coinstash to give Summ secure access to your transaction data.
- Log in to Coinstash and click your profile icon in the top-right corner, then select Account Settings

- From the left menu, click Security, then scroll down to API Keys and click Create API Key

- Enter Summ as the API Key Name
- Enter your Coinstash password
- Toggle Trade Permission and Withdraw Permission both to OFF
- Click Create API Key — a 2FA verification will be sent to your email

⚠️ Important: Keep both Trade and Withdraw permissions OFF. Summ requests view permissions only — it will never request private keys or transfer your funds.
Once created, your key will appear in the list with Permissions: read.
Step 3 — Paste your API key into Summ and connect
- Copy the Access Token shown in Coinstash
- Return to Summ and paste it into the API Key field
- Optionally enter a name in the API name field (e.g. "Coinstash")
- Click Secure Connect
Summ will begin syncing your Coinstash transaction history. Your account will appear in the Accounts list with a Syncing status, then update automatically once complete.

✅ You're all set! Head to Reports in Summ's left menu to view your capital gains summary and download your annual tax report.
