    INSTANCE_NAME : A Display name of your masternode
CONTACT_DETAILS : Your Email ID

d. Start your Node

sudo docker-compose -f docker-services.yml up -d

You should be able to see your node listed on this page: http://Xinfin.Network (Make sure, you are connected to XinFin Testnet. If not, switch to Testnet on top right corner.)

Your coinbase address can be found in xdcchain/coinbase.txt file.

4. Become a Candidate

Add your account address and click on ‘Become a Candidate’ to become a masternode. You must have minimum 10 Million XDC in your account. Once your candidature is accepted your stake of 10 Million XDC is locked._

3. Factoring Process

In a typical factoring on infactor.io, there are 3 parties involved. Supplier, Buyer, and Financier. Supplier is a starting point. Supplier uploads Invoice, Buyer validates invoice, and Financier factors on invoice.
