Depositing a token to OKX when it exists on several networks
Stablecoins and many other tokens exist on several blockchains, and choosing the wrong one is a common deposit mistake. How Swiss users can pick the right network, address and memo when depositing to OKX.
OKX | Switzerland | CHF | fees, access and account safety
When you open the deposit page for a popular token on OKX, you may see a list of networks to choose from. The token has the same name on each, but technically they are different assets living on different blockchains, with different address formats and confirmation times. If you send on a network that does not match the deposit address you selected, the funds may not arrive in your account. This guide walks through choosing the network carefully and confirming every detail before you press send in your wallet or at the platform you are withdrawing from.
Start from what the sending side supports
Before opening the deposit page, check which networks your sending wallet or the platform you are withdrawing from offers for this token. The correct network is one that both sides support. If the sending side only supports one network, choose that same network on OKX. If both support several, pick the one you understand best and whose name matches exactly, not one that merely sounds similar. Read any notices on the deposit page about suspended or congested networks.
Copy the address and memo for that network
Once you select the network, OKX shows the deposit address for it, and sometimes a memo or tag as well. Copy the address directly from the app and paste it into the sending side. Then compare the first and last several characters on both screens. If a memo is shown, enter it exactly; without it, a deposit to a shared address may not be matched to your account. Do not reuse an old address from your notes without checking it again.
Test with a small amount
For any new combination of token and network, send a small amount first. Watch the deposit record in OKX until it shows as credited after the required confirmations. Keep the transaction hash from the sending side. When the test arrives correctly, send the rest using the same details. The extra network fee for the test is a small price compared with a lost deposit.
If something went wrong
If a deposit does not appear after the expected time, check the transaction hash in a block explorer for the chosen network and confirm it was completed. Then review the deposit history and any network notices. If you used the wrong network or forgot the memo, read the help centre guidance on incorrect deposits and contact support through the official app with the hash, amount and time. Never pay anyone outside official channels who claims they can retrieve it.
