How to find my Binance deposit address?

Cryptocurrencies are deposited via a “deposit address”. To view the deposit address of your Binance Wallet, go to [Wallet] - [Overview] - [Deposit]. Click [Crypto Deposit] and select the coin you wish to deposit and the network you’re using. You will see the deposit address. Copy and paste the address to the platform or wallet you are withdrawing from to transfer them to your Binance Wallet. In some cases, you will also need to include a MEMO.

Step-by-step tutorial

1. Log into your Binance account and click [Wallet] - [Overview].

2. Click [Deposit] and you will see a pop-up window.

3.Click [Crypto Deposit].

4. Select the cryptocurrency you want to deposit, such as USDT.

5. Next, choose the deposit network. Please make sure that the selected network is the same as the network of the platform you are withdrawing funds from. If you select the wrong network, you will lose your funds.

Summary of network selection:

BEP2 refers to the BNB Beacon Chain (former Binance Chain).
BEP20 refers to the BNB Smart Chain (BSC) (former Binance Smart Chain).
ERC20 refers to the Ethereum network.
TRC20 refers to the TRON network.
BTC refers to the Bitcoin network.
BTC (SegWit) refers to Native Segwit (bech32), and the address starts with “bc1”. Users are allowed to withdraw or send their Bitcoin holdings to SegWit (bech32) addresses.

6. In this example, we will withdraw USDT from another platform and deposit it into Binance. Since we are withdrawing from an ERC20 address (Ethereum blockchain), we will select the ERC20 deposit network.

The network selection depends on the options provided by the external wallet/exchange that you are making the withdrawal from. If the external platform only supports ERC20, you must select the ERC20 deposit network.
DO NOT select the cheapest fee option. Select the one that is compatible with the external platform. For example, you can only send ERC20 tokens to another ERC20 address, and you can only send BSC tokens to another BSC address. If you select incompatible/different deposit networks, you will lose your funds.

7. Click to copy your Binance Wallet’s deposit address and paste it to the address field on the platform you intend to withdraw crypto from.

Alternatively, you can click the QR code icon to get a QR code of the address and import it to the platform you’re withdrawing.

8. After confirming the withdrawal request, it takes time for the transaction to be confirmed. The confirmation time varies depending on the blockchain and its current network traffic.

Once the transfer is processed the funds will be credited to your Binance account shortly after.

9. You can check the status of your deposit from [Transaction History], as well as more information on your recent transactions.

Deposit Crypto on Binance (App)

4. You will see a QR code and the deposit address. Click to copy your Binance Wallet’s deposit address and paste it to the address field on the platform you intend to withdraw crypto from. You may also click [Save as Image] and import the QR code on the withdrawing platform directly.

You can tap [Change Wallet], and select either “Spot Wallet” or “Funding Wallet” to make a deposit to.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a tag/memo and why do I need to enter it when depositing crypto?

Tag or memo is a unique identifier assigned to each account for identifying a deposit and crediting the appropriate account. When depositing certain crypto, such as BNB, XEM, XLM, XRP, KAVA, ATOM, BAND, EOS, etc., you need to enter the respective tag or memo for it to be successfully credited.

How long does it take for my funds to arrive? What is the transaction fee?

After confirming your request on Binance, it takes time for the transaction to be confirmed on the blockchain. The confirmation time varies depending on the blockchain and its current network traffic.

For example, if you’re depositing USDT, Binance supports the ERC20, BEP2, and TRC20 networks. You can select the desired network from the platform you’re withdrawing from, enter the amount to withdraw, and you will see the relevant transaction fees.

The funds will be credited to your Binance account shortly after the network confirms the transaction.

Please note if you entered the wrong deposit address or selected an unsupported network, your funds will be lost. Always check carefully before you confirm the transaction.

How to check my transaction history?

You can check the status of your deposit or withdrawal from [Wallet] - [Overview] - [Transaction History].

If you’re using the App, go to [Wallets] - [Overview] - [Spot] and tap the [Transaction History] icon on the right.

If you don’t own any cryptocurrency, you can click [Buy Crypto] to buy from P2P trading.

Why Hasn’t My Deposit Been Credited

1. Why has my deposit been credited yet?

Transferring funds from an external platform to Binance involves three steps:

Withdrawal from the external platform
Blockchain network confirmation
Binance credits the funds to your account

An asset withdrawal marked as “completed” or “success” in the platform youre withdrawing your crypto from means that the transaction was successfully broadcast to the blockchain network. However, it might still take some time for that particular transaction to be fully confirmed and credited to the platform you’re withdrawing your crypto to. The amount of required “network confirmations” varies for different blockchains.

For example:

Alice wants to deposit 2 BTC into her Binance wallet. The first step is to create a transaction that will transfer the funds from her personal wallet into Binance.
After creating the transaction, Alice needs to wait for the network confirmations. She will be able to see the pending deposit on her Binance account.
The funds will be temporarily unavailable until the deposit is complete (1 network confirmation).
If Alice decides to withdraw these funds, she needs to wait for 2 network confirmations.

Due to possible network congestion, there might be a significant delay in processing your transaction. You may use the TxID (Transaction ID) to look up the status of the transfer of your assets by using a blockchain explorer.

If the transaction has not yet been fully confirmed by the blockchain network nodes, or has not reached the minimum amount of network confirmations specified by our system, please wait patiently for it to be processed. When the transaction has been confirmed, Binance will credit the funds to your account.
If the transaction is confirmed by the blockchain but not credited to your Binance account, you may check the deposit status from the Deposit Status Query. You can then follow the instructions on the page to check your account, or submit an enquiry for the issue.

2. How do I check the transaction status on the blockchain?

Log in to your Binance account and click [Wallet] - [Overview] - [Transaction History] to view your cryptocurrency deposit record. Then click on the [TxID] to check the transaction details.

How to Trade Crypto at Binance

A spot trade is a simple transaction between a buyer and a seller to trade at the current market rate, known as the spot price. The trade takes place immediately when the order is fulfilled.

If the market price of BNB/BTC is at 0.002, but you want to buy at a specific price, for example, 0.001, you can place a [Limit] order. When the market price reaches your set price, your placed order will be executed.
The percentages shown below the BNB [Amount] field refer to the percentage amount of your held BTC you wish to trade for BNB. Pull the slider across to change the desired amount.

(2). In the [Amount] field, input the amount of BNB you wish to purchase. You may also use the percentages underneath to select how much of your held BTC you want to use to buy BNB.

(3). Once the market price of BNB reaches 0.002 BTC, the limit order will trigger and complete. 1 BNB will be sent to your spot wallet.

You can follow the same steps to sell BNB or any other chosen cryptocurrency by selecting the [Sell] tab.

The percentages shown below the BNB [Amount] field refer to the percentage amount of your held BTC you wish to trade for BNB. Pull the slider across to change the desired amount.

What is the Stop-Limit Function and How to use it

What is a stop-limit order?

A stop-limit order is a limit order that has a limit price and a stop price. When the stop price is reached, the limit order will be placed on the order book. Once the limit price is reached, the limit order will be executed.

Stop price: When the asset’s price reaches the stop price, the stop-limit order is executed to buy or sell the asset at the limit price or better.
Limit price: The selected (or potentially better) price at which the stop-limit order is executed.

You can set the stop price and limit price at the same price. However, it’s recommended that the stop price for sell orders should be slightly higher than the limit price. This price difference will allow for a safety gap in price between the time the order is triggered and when it is fulfilled. You can set the stop price slightly lower than the limit price for buy orders. This will also reduce the risk of your order not being fulfilled.

Please note that after the market price reaches your limit price, your order will be executed as a limit order. If you set the stop-loss limit too high or the take-profit limit too low, your order may never be filled because the market price cannot reach the limit price you set.

How to create a stop-limit order

How does a stop-limit order work?

The current price is 2,400 (A). You can set the stop price above the current price, such as 3,000 (B), or below the current price, such as 1,500 (C). Once the price goes up to 3,000 (B) or drops to 1,500 (C), the stop-limit order will be triggered, and the limit order will be automatically placed on the order book.

Note

Limit price can be set above or below the stop price for both buy and sell orders. For example, stop price B can be placed along with a lower limit price B1 or a higher limit price B2.
A limit order is invalid before the stop price is triggered, including when the limit price is reached ahead of the stop price.
When the stop price is reached, it only indicates that a limit order is activated and will be submitted to the order book, rather than the limit order being filled immediately. The limit order will be executed according to its own rules.

How to place a stop-limit order on Binance?

1. Log in to your Binance account and go to [Trade] - [Spot]. Select either [Buy] or [Sell], then click [Stop-limit].

2. Enter the stop price, limit price, and the amount of crypto you wish to purchase. Click [Buy BNB] to confirm the details of the transaction.

How to view my stop-limit orders?

Once you submit the orders, you can view and edit your stop-limit orders under [Open Orders].

To view executed or canceled orders, go to the [Order History] tab.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is a Limit Order

A limit order is an order that you place on the order book with a specific limit price. It will not be executed immediately like a market order. Instead, the limit order will only be executed if the market price reaches your limit price (or better). Therefore, you may use limit orders to buy at a lower price or sell at a higher price than the current market price.

For example, you place a buy limit order for 1 BTC at $60,000, and the current BTC price is 50,000. Your limit order will be filled immediately at $50,000, as it is a better price than the one you set ($60,000).

Similarly, if you place a sell limit order for 1 BTC at $40,000 and the current BTC price is $50,000. The order will be filled immediately at $50,000 because it is a better price than $40,000.

Market Order	Limit Order
Purchases an asset at the market price	Purchases an asset at a set price or better
Fills immediately	Fills only at the limit order’s price or better
Manual	Can be set in advance

What is Market Order

A market order is executed at the current market price as quickly as possible when you place the order. You can use it to place both buy and sell orders.

You can select [Amount] or [Total] to place a buy or sell market order. For example, if you want to buy a certain quantity of BTC, you can enter the amount directly. But if you want to buy BTC with a certain amount of funds, such as 10,000 USDT, you can use [Total] to place the buy order.
