When you're expecting a cryptocurrency transfer, you've got two easy options:

  • Receive Crypto with QR: Share your unique QR Code for the specific cryptocurrency you're expecting. This QR Code acts like a digital fingerprint, ensuring the sender knows precisely where to send their crypto.

  • Receive Crypto with Wallet Address / Cryptocurrency Address: Send your cryptocurrency address or wallet address directly to the sender. This address is a string of characters unique to your account on the blockchain network. By providing this address, you're giving the sender the exact destination for their cryptocurrency transfer.

Note: Each cryptocurrency account has its own unique address and QR Code. Sending any different cryptocurrency may result in their loss.

Example: In your Bitcoin account you can only receive Bitcoins.

Steps

  1. Navigate to your Crypto account.

  2. Click on the [Receive] button.

  3. A window will appear displaying your Wallet String and a QR Code. You can choose to share the QR Code or copy the wallet address to your clipboard.

What is the Expected Timeframe for the Funds to be Credited in my Account?

The timeframe for crediting crypto payments may vary on the network of the asset, the current traffic and the volatility. However, it will usually takes between thirty minutes and two hours to complete the process.


What are the recommended steps if a transfer has not reached my account as expected?

Ask for the transaction Hash/ID from the Sender (often abbreviated as tx hash or txn hash). This can be used to track the transaction and serves as a record of the transaction. It contains information about the sender and receiver addresses, the amount of cryptocurrency sent, and any additional information such as a memo or destination tag. This information is important for tracking and verifying the transaction.

Sending crypto to the wrong address will result in lost funds, as transactions are irreversible. Double-check the address carefully before confirming.
