# How to deposit crypto into your Roxom account

> Step-by-step guide to deposit BTC, USDC, or USDT into your Roxom Funding Account.

Depositing crypto into Roxom is fast and secure. You can fund your account with **BTC**, **USDC**, or **USDT**. This guide walks you through the steps, requirements, and important details for each currency.

## Before you begin

Your account must be **verified** to access deposit addresses. If your **Account Verification (KYC)** is still pending, you won't be able to make deposits yet.

## Supported currencies and networks

<Info>
  **Polygon**, **Base**, and **Ethereum** are all EVM-compatible networks. Your deposit address is the same across all three networks and for both USDC and USDT, you only need one address for all EVM deposits.
</Info>

## How to start a deposit

From the main navigation, click the [**Deposit**](https://roxom.com/exchange/account/deposit) button (top-right) to open the **Deposit Crypto** screen.

## Deposit flow

<Steps>
  <Step title="Select coin">
    Choose the currency you want to deposit: **BTC**, **USDC**, or **USDT**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select network">
    * For **BTC**: the network is fixed to **Bitcoin (BTC)**.
    * For **USDC** or **USDT**: choose between **Polygon**, **Base**, and **Ethereum**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm deposit details">
    You'll see your personal deposit address and a QR code. Copy the address or scan the QR code from your sending wallet.

    * **BTC addresses** start with: `1`, `3`, `bc1q`, or `bc1p`
    * **USDC/USDT addresses** are EVM addresses starting with `0x`

    Below the address, you'll find key details:

    * **Minimum deposit required** (e.g., 1 USDT)
    * **Deposits credited to**: Funding Account
    * **Deposit completion**: number of confirmations needed

    <Note>
      For **USDC/USDT deposits**, the platform will display a reminder to verify you are sending the **native token on the selected network**. Always confirm the contract address before depositing.
    </Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Send funds from your wallet">
    Initiate the transfer from your external wallet or exchange using the copied address. Double-check the address and selected network before confirming.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Here's an example of the deposit screen when depositing **USDT on Polygon**:

</Frame>

<Warning>
  **Send only the correct asset on the correct network.**

  * **BTC** must be sent over the **native Bitcoin network** only.
  * **USDC/USDT** must be sent over **Polygon**, **Base**, or **Ethereum** only.

  Do **not** send BTC via BEP-20, ERC-20, Lightning, or any other network. Do **not** send USDC/USDT on unsupported networks (e.g., Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Chain).

  Deposits made through an incorrect network or involving unsupported assets may result in **permanent loss of funds**. Roxom cannot recover them.
</Warning>

## Are there any deposit fees?

Roxom does **not** charge fees for crypto deposits. However, your sending wallet or exchange may charge a network fee when sending the transaction. This fee is not collected by Roxom.

## When will my deposit be available?

As soon as Roxom detects the transaction on the network, it will appear as **Pending** in the **Recent Deposits** section.

Your funds become available once the transaction reaches the required number of confirmations for the selected network. Until then, the deposit is visible but not usable for trading or withdrawal.

## All deposits go to your Funding Account

Regardless of the currency you deposit, BTC, USDC, or USDT, all funds are credited to your **Funding Account**. From there, you can transfer them to your **Unified Trading Account (UTA)**. BTC can be used for trading immediately. If you transferred USDC or USDT, you must first sell them for BTC using [One-Click Trade (Swap)](/help-center/one-click-trade/what-is-one-click-trade-what-assets-are-available) before you can trade. See [Understanding your Roxom accounts](/help-center/account-basics/understanding-your-roxom-accounts) to learn how these accounts work, or [How to transfer funds](/help-center/account-basics/how-to-transfer-funds-between-accounts) for a step-by-step guide.

## Compliance and protection

Roxom monitors all incoming deposits under strict **anti-money laundering (AML)** standards. If a deposit is flagged due to high-risk activity, it may be temporarily held or rejected as part of our **Transaction Monitoring** protocols.

<Tip>
  Always double-check the deposit address and network before sending. Blockchain transactions are irreversible.
