• Match Key's are case sensitive. Ensure you know which case your need your Key letters to be in. Not all sites are the same.

• On 23andMe, your match's key can be seen in the address bar when viewing their match to you. It is in the same format as your own 23andMe ID.

• At MyHeritage, your match's key can also be seen in the address bar. It is the second half of the long alphanumeric string, starting with the second D-

• Gedmatch match keys are the kit number you have compared with.

• Where and how to find the ICW information varies according to which site you are using. This will not be covered in the guide at this time.

Take care when entering data.
