# How to Deposit on Bitget

> **Quick answer**
> **If you already have crypto:** in the Bitget app tap **Add Funds** → **Deposit Crypto**, pick the coin, then the **network that matches the sending side**, choose the account it lands in (**Spot** or **Funding**), and tap **Copy Address**. Send from the other wallet or exchange on **the same network**. **If you don't have crypto yet:** buy USDT with your local currency on **Bitget P2P** (no Bitget fees) or with a **bank card**. **You need a verified account to deposit.**
>
> **[Open Bitget →]**
>
> **Right after you sign up:** verify your account and have your ID card or passport ready. The steps are here: [Bitget identity verification](https://exchangesteps.com/bitget-identity-verification).

| | |
|---|---|
| **Requirement** | A verified account |
| **Bitget deposit fee** | None (the sending network charges its own fee) |
| **Crypto deposits** | Same network on both ends + memo if the screen shows one |
| **With local currency** | Bitget P2P (no Bitget fees) or Visa/Mastercard card |

## Method 1: Deposit crypto from another wallet or exchange

### Step 1: Open the deposit screen

In the app, tap **Add Funds** at the top of the home screen, then **Deposit Crypto**. On the website: profile icon (top right) → **Deposit**.

### Step 2: Choose the coin

Search for the coin (USDT, for example) and tap it.

### Step 3: Choose the network

Pick **the network the sending side will use**. Bitget's example: if you send USDT over Ethereum, choose **ERC-20**. In Bitget's words, using the wrong network "may result in permanent loss of funds".

Networks explained: [TRC20, BEP20 and ERC20](https://exchangesteps.com/usdt-networks).

### Step 4: Choose where it lands

Pick the account, such as **Spot** or **Funding**. The coins appear there automatically once they're credited.

### Step 5: Copy the address (and the memo, if there is one)

Tap **Copy Address** or use the QR code. Some networks (Bitget gives **EOS** as an example) also need a **memo**. If a memo is shown, enter it on the sending side. Without it, the deposit may not arrive on its own.

> 💡 **Copy a fresh address each time.** Bitget may change deposit addresses from time to time. Always use the address shown on the Deposit page now, not an old one.

### Step 6: Send from the other side

Paste the address on the sending wallet or exchange, check that the network matches, and send. Each coin has a **minimum deposit**, so send at least that. First time? Try a small amount first.

After the network confirms the transfer, the coins show up under **Assets**. The time depends on the network and how busy it is. You can track it with the transaction ID (**TxID**) on a block explorer.

## Method 2: Buy USDT with your local currency on P2P

No crypto yet? On **Bitget P2P** you buy USDT from another user and pay them by bank transfer or e-wallet. Bitget **charges no P2P fees** (your bank or wallet may charge its own), and it **locks the seller's crypto in escrow** until the order is done. Bitget says P2P supports **over 100 payment methods**.

Currencies on Bitget's official P2P list include the **Egyptian pound, UAE dirham and Moroccan dirham**, as well as USD, EUR, GBP, Turkish lira, Pakistani rupee and many others.

## Method 3: Buy with a bank card

1. Tap **Add Funds** and choose your currency.
2. Choose **Credit/Debit Card**, enter the amount and pick the coin.
3. Tap **Add New Card** and enter the card number, expiry date and CVV.
4. Check the amount, price and **fee shown on screen**, then tap **Confirm**.
5. Approve the payment in your bank app or with the code your bank sends (3D Secure).

Bitget accepts **Visa, Mastercard, Google Pay and Apple Pay**. The card must be **in your own name**, matching your verification, and allow international and crypto payments. Some banks block crypto purchases, which is a common reason for a failed payment.

## Common problems

**I can't deposit**
- Deposits need a verified account. [Verify your account](https://exchangesteps.com/bitget-identity-verification).

**My deposit hasn't arrived**
- Look up the TxID on a block explorer. If it's confirmed there, check the address and network, then open a ticket with the TxID.

**I sent on the wrong network or forgot the memo**
- On the website, open **Deposit** → **Refund of uncredited deposit** and fill in the form with the TxID. Bitget says this can take up to 10 working days and recovery isn't guaranteed.

## Frequently asked questions

**Does Bitget charge a deposit fee?**
No. Only the network fee on the sending side applies, and Bitget doesn't receive it.

**Can I deposit before verifying?**
No. Since 1 January 2024, crypto deposits need a verified account.

**Can I deposit in my local currency?**
Yes, by buying USDT on Bitget P2P, or with a Visa or Mastercard card in your name.

**Do I need a memo for USDT?**
Usually not. If the deposit screen shows a memo, enter it.

**Can I cancel a deposit?**
No. A blockchain transfer can't be cancelled or reversed once sent.
