Independent Reserve is a Sydney-based Australian cryptocurrency exchange, founded in 2013.
Their trade commission stands at 0.1% to 0.5% depending on your 30 day trade volume.
Bitcoin and Ether deposits are free and an important fact, AUD withdrawals are free to Australian bank accounts!

~Step one~

Make an Independent Reserve account.

~Step two~

Next you are automatically taken to the steemconnect window, accept the transfer.
It will take a while for the confirmations on the transaction to go through and for the ETH

Expect 10 mins to 30 mins wait.
You can refresh your ETH wallet on the Independent reserve page labeled Deposit Wallets.
