Before the coin leaves the wallet
Depositing crypto at a casino: six things to check before you send
A blockchain transaction cannot be undone. Six checks before you send, from the address and the network to the minimum amount and the rate, decide whether the amount lands in the gaming account or disappears.
A crypto deposit differs from a card deposit on one decisive point: once the transaction is on the chain, there is no bank that can reverse it. If something goes wrong, it is the operator's terms that decide whether you get the money back, and several of them say outright that you do not.
So it pays to spend a couple of minutes on six checks before you press send. The examples below come from terms read on 2 September 2026 at the operators in the overview with files. The comparison of the operators itself, with all five points gathered, starts on the home page of kryptospill.
Blocks confirming a transfer
Depositing crypto: six things to check
- The address comes from the cashier and is pasted in, never copied out by hand.
- The network is the same in the cashier and in the wallet you send from.
- The memo or tag is included when the cashier asks for it.
- The minimum amount has been reached, and the amount sits below any upper limit.
- The confirmations are a number of blocks, and you know how many the cashier requires.
- The rate and the fee are accounted for, so that the amount credited is the one you expect.
Each point has a section of its own below.

Every To the casino button in this table opens the same place: the casino this page is paid to show, and not the operator standing in the row beside it. File goes to the operator's own entry, where the clauses behind the scores are quoted. The scores are counted from published terms and register entries, and that count is not for sale.
The address from the cashier
The cashier shows a deposit address for the coin you choose, often together with a QR code. Copy the address with the button in the cashier, paste it into the wallet and compare the beginning and the end of the string. If you scan the QR code with a phone, you make the same comparison on the screen.
Fetch the address again every time you deposit. Some cashiers change the address, and an old address from the wallet's history is not necessarily valid any more. An address also applies only to the coin it was shown for, so an address for BTC does not receive LTC.
The network has to match on both sides
Several coins exist on more than one chain, and then each network has its own addresses and fees. USDT is the best-known example. Rocketpot, for instance, carries two variants of USDT in its coin list.
Rainbet is clear about what happens on a wrong choice: under cl. 7.9 coins arriving on a network the cashier does not support are lost. So choose the network in the cashier first, and then choose exactly the same network in the wallet or at the exchange service you send from. If the wallet shows a different name for the network than the cashier, stop and find out why before you go on.
The number of coins varies a great deal between operators. Wolfbet has 32 on its FAQ list, Rocketpot names 13 in its terms, Bitcasino.io mentions 12 in its help centre, and Wild Fortune showed 10 on its payments page. At Shuffle.com the coins are only in the cashier after you have registered (cl. 9.4).
The memo and the tag
Coins such as XRP and XLM often use an extra code, called a destination tag or memo, when a service receives deposits from many customers at the same address. The address sends the coin to the operator, while the code says which account it belongs to.
If the cashier shows such a field, the code has to go with the transaction. If it is missing, the coin arrives but is not linked to your account, and you have to contact customer service with the transaction ID to have it placed. If the cashier shows no field, you should not invent a code either.
The minimum amount and the upper limit for a crypto deposit
The minimum amount is the point that most often costs money, because several operators write that amounts below the limit are not credited or refunded.
- Rocketpot sets the minimum at 0.001 BTC, and smaller deposits are lost (cl. 10.2).
- Wild Fortune requires at least €20 per deposit (cl. 10.4).
- Bitcasino.io counts a deposit below the minimum as invalid, and the amount is not refunded (cl. 5).
- Wolfbet does not credit deposits below the minimum (cl. 14 §9) and accepts at most $50,000 in one deposit (cl. 14 §6).
Remember the fee. Send exactly the minimum amount from a service that takes the fee off the sum, and what arrives can land below the limit. So build in a margin.
A bonus can have a minimum of its own. Bitcasino.io's welcome package, for example, required at least 50 USDT per deposit when we read the promotion page on 2 September 2026.
Confirmations are counted in blocks
A confirmation is a block added to the chain after the block carrying your transaction. The operator waits for a certain number before the balance is counted as secure. The number is in the terms, while the time between blocks depends on the chain and on the traffic there.
Rocketpot credits after one confirmation (cl. 10.5). Three confirmations is the requirement at Bitcasino.io before you may ask for a withdrawal of the funds (cl. 6.1). If the transaction is stuck with no confirmations, it is usually because the fee was low relative to the traffic, and then sending again does not help.
The rate and the fee at crediting
The cashier often converts the coin into the account currency at the moment the deposit is counted as confirmed. The rate at that time decides the balance, not the rate when you pressed send. Wild Fortune states in cl. 11.1 which source is used for the exchange rate, and that is a piece of information worth looking for at others too.
The fee you pay to the network, not to the operator, and it varies with the chain and the traffic. A worked example: send 100 USDT and the network takes 1 USDT in fees, and 99 USDT arrives. If the minimum amount is 100 USDT, the deposit is then below the limit.
Rate swings work the same way. Another worked example: you send 0.01 BTC while it corresponds to $600, and the rate has fallen 2% by the time the deposit is counted as confirmed. The balance then comes out at $588, even though you sent exactly what you intended.
Deposits that are only put in and taken straight out again can also have consequences. Rocketpot raises the turnover requirement from three to five times if the account is used as a mixer (cl. 12.6), while Bitcasino.io can require fivefold turnover when such use is suspected (cl. 6.8). How the money comes out again is described in the step-by-step guide to withdrawals.
A deposit from start to balance
This is how an ordinary round looks when all six checks are included. The example uses USDT, but the order is the same for other coins.
- Log in, open the cashier and choose USDT.
- Choose the network in the cashier and note the name exactly as it stands.
- Copy the address, and the memo if there is one, with the buttons in the cashier.
- Open the wallet, choose the same coin and the same network, and paste the address in.
- Enter the amount with a margin above the minimum and see which fee the wallet shows.
- Compare the beginning and the end of the address one last time, and send.
- Take a screenshot of the transaction and note the transaction ID.
- Follow the confirmations in a block explorer until the number the cashier requires has been reached.
The first time you use a new cashier or a new network, it can be wise to send a small amount above the minimum before you send the rest.
When the deposit does not turn up
If the balance stands unchanged, you start with the transaction ID. Look it up in a block explorer that shows the chain you sent on, and look at three things: whether the transaction exists, how many confirmations it has, and which address it went to.
- No transaction: it was never sent. Check the history in the wallet.
- Too few confirmations: wait until the number is reached. A new deposit solves nothing.
- The right address and enough confirmations: contact customer service with the transaction ID, a screenshot, the coin, the network and any tag.
- The wrong address or network: contact customer service at once, but be prepared for the terms to say the amount is lost.
Write down the date and what answer you got. That makes it easier to refer to the case later.
Before you buy the coin for kroner
If you have no crypto to begin with, you buy it at an exchange service or an exchange with Norwegian kroner, usually by bank transfer or card. Look for three things: which fee is added to the purchase, which networks the service can send on, and whether it requires a tag for coins such as XRP. Many choose a stablecoin such as USDT or USDC to avoid rate swings between the purchase and the deposit.
Some operators have requirements of their own already at this stage. Wild Fortune requires ID before you can deposit and play with BTC (cl. 2.7), and Bitsler wants ID and proof of address before you buy crypto by card through the site. Rainbet also accepts cards, bank transfers and gift cards.
What happens to the win when it is to come out depends on the caps and instalments in the terms. That is gathered in the walk-through of withdrawal caps, and how you check the game rounds themselves is on the page about provably fair.
