Sent crypto on the wrong network or the wrong coin to RedotPay? What can be recovered

What happens when you deposit an unsupported coin or use the wrong network on RedotPay, how to file a recovery request in the app, what it costs (10 USD to 20%), and the one case that's free to fix.

Updated View as Markdown

A deposit in a coin or on a network that RedotPay doesn’t accept for that address is not credited. Sometimes it can be recovered, for a fee, in 7 to 15 business days. It isn’t guaranteed.

First, check which case you’re in

What happened Credited? What to do
Right coin and network, but below the minimum No, until you top it up Send another deposit of the same coin on the same network that reaches the minimum. Both are credited together, free
Wrong network, for example USDT sent on Ethereum to a Tron address No File a recovery request
Wrong coin, for example EURC sent to a USDC address No File a recovery request
Network supported but the deposit is still missing Not yet See money held for review

How to file a recovery request

  1. Open Deposit and choose the coin you sent.
  2. Tap the ? icon in the top right corner to open the asset recovery form.
  3. Enter the transaction ID (TxID or hash) and the network you actually used.
  4. Pay the handling fee.
  5. Enter a refund address and tap Submit.

What it costs

Amount deposited Recovery fee
10 to 100 USD 10 USD
100 to 5,000 USD 10% of the deposit
Over 5,000 USD 500 USD
Complex cases Up to 20%

The official table starts at 10 USD and doesn’t say what happens to smaller amounts. For a mistaken deposit of a few dollars, the fee can be more than the money.

How to never need this

Before every deposit, the app warns you twice. Both warnings matter.

Popup over the network list: the deposit network must match the withdrawal network, otherwise it may result in asset loss
Pick the same network on both sides, for example TRC20 in RedotPay and TRC20 on your exchange.
  • Choose the coin first, then the network, then copy the address. Each coin has its own address.
  • Send a small test amount the first time.
