What is Transaction ID?

Transaction ID (TXID), also known as transaction hash, is a string of characters calculated based on the size, time, type, creator and machine of each cryptocurrency transaction. It is equivalent to the identity certificate (ID) of each cryptocurrency transaction, with uniqueness and immutability. Also, it can be regarded as the “transaction serial number" when transferring money with a bank card.

Why can’t I find Transaction ID?

Due to network crowdedness, your transaction might be delayed and it will take longer to generate a transaction ID for your transfer. Please kindly wait.
If you fail to see any TXID for a long time, please contact the withdrawal platform to check if they have sent your assets successfully.

What is Confirmation?

Confirmation refers to the process in which the transaction is included in the block and added to the blockchain. When a transaction is broadcasted to the blockchain network, it is presented to be packed in a block by the miners. Once the transaction is included in a block, the transaction will have 1 confirmation. Besides, the number of confirmations for a transaction represents the number of blocks that contain this transaction. In general, the more confirmations it gets, the more irreversible the transaction will be.

Why the deposit is not credited to my account yet?

No one can affect the speed when transactions are confirmed on the blockchain, which is purely based on the conditions of the network. Time for block generation varies from coins to coins and so do required confirmations. Therefore, the exact arrival time of your deposit depends on network crowdedness. Your deposit will be credited to your account when confirmations meet CoinEx deposit confirmation requirement.

Can I cancel the pending deposit?

It depends on your withdrawal platform. In general, if the TXID is already available on the blockchain explorer, you will NOT be able to cancel this deposit.

Can I change my deposit address?

You can click [Use new address] on the deposit page to change the address.
Note: Only the used address can be changed. If the address has never been used, CoinEx cannot generate a new address.

What happens if I deposit to my old address?

Don’t worry. Your deposit to old deposit address will be credited to your account if you still use the deposit address.

What should I do if deposit to a wrong address?

Digital currency transactions are irreversible. Once it is sent out, only the receiver can return the coin to you and CoinEx is unable to help you get it back. In this case, we suggest you contact the recipient platform of the wrong address for help. If you do not know whose address is, the assets will not be recovered.

Why hasnt my account balance increased when the transaction gets enough confirmations?

1. Different coins have different confirmation requirement for deposit. Please confirm carefully whether your deposit address is correct and whether the confirmation qty reaches to the deposit requirement.

2. If you mistakenly deposit via smart contract, please submit a ticket for assistance.

3. If your deposit address is correct with enough confirmations yet your account balance didn’t increase, please submit a ticket to contact support for assistance.

What should I do if I didnt receive the asset after a deposit?

1. If the transaction is confirmed on the blockchain (it has enough confirmations), and the transfer amount is over the minimum deposit amount but your CoinEx account still didnt receive, please submit a ticket for assistance.

2. If the transaction is confirming on the blockchain (it doesnt have enough confirmations), please kindly wait for block packing and confirmation.
