Transfer Networks

A variety of cryptocurrencies, like USDC and ETH, operate on multiple networks. When receiving coins into your CoinSpot wallets, please ensure that the sending wallet is sending your assets via a CoinSpot supported network.

To determine the accepted transfer networks when sending coins into CoinSpot, head on over to your coins wallet and within the Receives Tab you will be able to review the supported transfer networks.

Below we have provided an example regarding the supported transfer network when transferring ETH.

What is an invalid Coin/Token deposit?

If a deposit has been made into CoinSpot via an unsupported transfer network or is not listed on CoinSpot - this will not be reflective within your wallet and may require a recovery of assets.

Any asset deemed as an 'invalid deposit', will not be received into your CoinSpot account.

Examples of invalid Coin deposit

• Coin not listed: Depositing SFM into CoinSpot
• ICO Tokens: Receiving ICO Tokens to a CoinSpot wallet
• Wrong wallet address: Depositing BCH to BTC receiving wallet address
• Unsupported Transfer network: Depositing USDT via KCC Transfer Network

If any of the above examples apply to your coin deposit, contact us and our Support team will be able to assist you further.
