Transferring cryptocurrency from your Web3 wallet to your Bitget account is a straightforward process—whether you're using Bitget Wallet, MetaMask, Trust Wallet, or a hardware wallet like Ledger. This comprehensive guide walks you through every step, from locating your unique deposit address to safely sending funds. By the end, you’ll be fully equipped to fund your Bitget account and begin trading with confidence.
Understanding the Basics: Deposits on Bitget
Before diving into the steps, it’s important to understand a few key points:
- No deposit restrictions: Bitget does not impose limits on incoming crypto deposits.
- KYC required for withdrawals only: You must complete identity verification if you plan to withdraw funds later, but it’s not needed for deposits.
- Minimum deposit threshold: Ensure your transfer meets the minimum amount—typically 0.001 USDT—or the deposit will not be credited or refunded.
With that in mind, let’s get started.
How to Find Your Bitget Deposit Address
Whether you're on desktop or mobile, finding your deposit address is simple and secure.
On the Bitget Website
👉 Learn how to securely manage your crypto deposits in minutes.
- Log in to your Bitget account and hover over the wallet icon in the top navigation bar.
- Click Deposit.
Choose the crypto asset you want to deposit (e.g., USDT, BTC, ETH) and select the appropriate network/blockchain (e.g., BEP20, ERC20, TRC20).
⚠️ Critical: Always match the network of your sending wallet with the receiving network on Bitget. Mismatched networks can result in lost funds.
- Your unique deposit address will appear as both a text string and a QR code. You can copy the address or scan the QR code directly from your wallet app.
Select your preferred funding destination:
- Spot Account: For immediate trading.
- Funding Account: For P2P transactions.
- USDT-M Account: For USDT-margined futures trading.
- After transferring, check your Deposit History to confirm receipt. Processing times depend entirely on blockchain network congestion—not Bitget’s systems.
On the Bitget Mobile App
- Open the Bitget app and tap Add Funds on the home screen.
- Select Deposit Crypto under I have crypto assets.
- Search or scroll to find the coin/token you wish to deposit (e.g., USDT).
Choose the correct network (e.g., BNB Chain, Ethereum). The interface will display:
- Minimum deposit amount
- Estimated crediting time based on network speed
- Your deposit address will be generated instantly in QR and text format.
- Copy the address or scan the QR code using your external wallet.
Transferring Funds from Your Web3 Wallet to Bitget
Now that you have your Bitget deposit address, it’s time to send funds from your Web3 wallet—such as Bitget Wallet, MetaMask, or Trust Wallet.
Step 1: Open Your Web3 Wallet
Launch your wallet app (or browser extension) and navigate to the Wallet or Assets section.
Tap Send, Transfer, or a similarly labeled option.
Step 2: Select Asset and Network
Choose the same cryptocurrency and blockchain network as specified in your Bitget deposit settings.
For example:
If depositing USDT via BEP20 (BNB Chain), ensure:
- The token selected is USDT
- The network is set to BNB Chain

🔍 Double-check everything: Sending USDT on ERC20 to a BEP20 address will result in failed delivery. While some assets may be recoverable through support, this is not guaranteed.
Step 3: Enter Bitget’s Deposit Address
Paste the deposit address copied from Bitget or use your wallet’s camera feature to scan the QR code.
Enter the amount you wish to send. Before confirming:
- Verify the address matches exactly
- Confirm the network one final time
- Ensure you have enough native gas token (e.g., BNB for BNB Chain, ETH for Ethereum) to cover transaction fees
Tap Confirm to initiate the transfer.
Key Considerations for Safe Transfers
To protect your assets and ensure smooth transactions, keep these best practices in mind:
✅ Always Match Networks
Cryptocurrencies exist across multiple blockchains. For example:
- USDT exists on ERC20 (Ethereum), BEP20 (BNB Chain), and TRC20 (Tron)
- Each has its own address format and fee structure
Sending across mismatched chains risks permanent loss.
✅ Keep Gas Fees Covered
Every blockchain transaction requires gas fees paid in the network’s native token:
- Ethereum → ETH
- BNB Chain → BNB
- Polygon → MATIC
Without sufficient gas funds, your transaction will fail or stall indefinitely.
✅ Wait Patiently for Confirmation
Processing times vary:
- BNB Chain: ~15 seconds
- Ethereum: 1–15 minutes (depending on congestion)
- Bitcoin: 10+ minutes
Bitget cannot accelerate blockchain confirmations.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Do I need KYC to deposit funds?
No. KYC verification is only required when withdrawing funds. You can deposit crypto at any time without completing identity verification.
Q: What happens if I send crypto to the wrong network?
If you send funds using an incorrect network (e.g., ERC20 to a BEP20 address), they may not arrive. Contact Bitget support immediately with your transaction hash (TXID) for possible recovery—but success depends on blockchain compatibility.
Q: Why hasn’t my deposit arrived yet?
Deposits depend on blockchain confirmation times. Check your transaction on a blockchain explorer (like BscScan or Etherscan) using the TXID. If confirmed but still not credited, reach out to Bitget support with proof.
Q: Can I use MetaMask or Trust Wallet to deposit?
Yes! Any Web3 wallet works as long as you correctly select the matching asset and network on both ends.
Q: Is there a minimum deposit amount?
Yes. Most tokens require a minimum of 0.001 USDT equivalent. Deposits below this threshold won’t be processed or refunded.
Q: Where do my funds go after deposit?
You can choose between:
- Spot Account: Trade instantly
- Funding Account: Use for P2P trades
- USDT-M Futures Account: Trade perpetual contracts with USDT margin
Final Tips for a Smooth Experience
- Save your frequently used Bitget deposit addresses (with correct networks) for faster future transfers.
- Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on both Bitget and your Web3 wallet for enhanced security.
- Never share your private keys or recovery phrases.
- Test with a small amount first before sending large sums.
