Deposit
A deposit moves ETH or a supported token from your wallet into your private balance.
Steps
- Open Shield in the app and choose the asset and the amount.
- Check the quote. It shows what you get in the pool and every fee.
- Press Check and deposit. The app checks the deposit first. Nothing leaves your wallet yet.
- For a deposit of $1,000 or more, your wallet asks for one more signature. It is free: no transaction and no gas.
- Confirm the deposit in your wallet. For a token, your wallet first asks you to approve it.
- Wait for the deposit to be credited. The app shows its status.
What the quote shows
- In the pool you get: the exact amount credited to your private balance.
- Deposit fee: 0.5% of the amount.
- Withdrawal fee (prepaid): the 0.5% fee of a later withdrawal, paid now. You can turn this off.
- To your Gas: ETH added to your Gas balance for later network fees. You can turn this off.
- Network & service fee: ETH held for the gas of crediting your deposit. The unused part comes back to you.
- Your wallet gas: the gas your wallet pays to send the deposit.
- Total from your wallet.
All fees are added on top, so the amount you choose is the amount you get in the pool.
How long it takes
Most deposits are credited within minutes. Some wait longer. See Deposit checks.
Minimum amounts
Each asset has a minimum deposit. See Networks and addresses.
Deposit only from a wallet you control. A deposit that is not accepted goes back to the address it came from, so never deposit from an exchange.
