In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to transfer cryptocurrencies to your One Trading account from an external wallet. We’ll also cover key requirements and best practices to ensure a smooth and secure transfer.
Step 1: Sign in to Your One Trading Account
Start by logging into your One Trading account to initiate the transfer process.
Step 2: Navigate to the Deposit Section
Once logged in, go to the 'Accounts' section on the platform. Inside this section, click on 'Deposit'. This will display the available options for funding your One Trading account.
Step 3: Select Your Cryptocurrency
Choose the specific cryptocurrency you wish to transfer to One Trading. Different cryptocurrencies may have unique transfer requirements, so it’s important to select the correct one from the available options.
Step 4: Ensure You Are Using the Correct Blockchain Network
After selecting your cryptocurrency, you’ll see the supported blockchain network for that asset in the “Network” field. This step is critical to avoid losing your assets.
It’s essential that both the sending wallet (external wallet) and the receiving wallet (One Trading) operate on the same blockchain network. If the networks are incompatible, your assets will be permanently lost. You can typically find the network details of the sending wallet in the withdrawal section of the external wallet or platform.
Step 5: Copy the Deposit Address
One Trading will provide you with a unique deposit address—a string of numbers and letters—specific to your wallet.
Copy this deposit address and paste it into the appropriate "wallet address" field in the external wallet or platform from which you are sending the cryptocurrency. Double-check that the address and network match to avoid errors. Mistakes in copying the deposit address or selecting the wrong network can lead to the irreversible loss of your funds.
Important Considerations:
- Cryptocurrencies sent to the wrong address or through the wrong network are permanently lost on the blockchain and cannot be recovered.
- If the cryptocurrency requires additional information, such as a memo, reference, or message, make sure to include it when sending the funds. Some cryptocurrencies need this information to ensure the deposit is credited correctly. Failing to provide these details could result in a failed transfer.
Step 6: Wait for Network Confirmation
Once the transaction is initiated from your external wallet, the blockchain network will need to confirm it. The time required for confirmation varies depending on the cryptocurrency and its network.
You can monitor the status of your transaction either within your external wallet or by using a blockchain explorer. Most platforms will provide you with a transaction ID, which you can use to track the status of the transfer on a blockchain explorer.
Once the transaction is confirmed on the blockchain, the cryptocurrency will appear in your One Trading account under the corresponding balance.
If you haven’t received the assets after a few hours, and the transaction is confirmed by the blockchain explorer, please contact us with the transaction details, and we’ll assist you further.
