Deposits

Fund your Liquid account with Apple Pay, Google Pay, card, bank transfer, PayPal, Venmo, Cash App, Coinbase, or USDC on Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Solana, and more. Deposits land in minutes.

Funding your Liquid account takes a few minutes. All deposits land as USDC, which is what every market on Liquid settles in, so there is nothing to convert before you trade.

Deposit Methods

Tap Deposit in the app or at app.liquid.trade and pick a method:

  • Cards and wallets. Apple Pay, Google Pay, and any Visa or Mastercard debit or credit card.

  • Bank and payment apps. Bank transfer (ACH in the US, SEPA in Europe, or wire), Cash App, PayPal, and Venmo.

  • Other apps. Deposit directly from Coinbase, Robinhood, and 100+ other apps and exchanges.

  • Crypto. Send USDC, USDT, BTC, ETH, or SOL from a supported chain to your Liquid deposit address. Liquid converts non-USDC deposits to USDC for you.

Supported Chains for Crypto Deposits

Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Solana, Bitcoin, BNB Smart Chain, Optimism, Polygon, Abstract, and more. Minimums vary by chain and are shown on the deposit screen (typically $10 to $50). Always send to the address shown for the chain you selected.

Fiat Deposit Minimums

Card and bank deposits start from as little as $2, depending on the payment provider and your region. Some payment providers require a one-time identity verification for fiat deposits. Identity verification is not required to create an account or trade with crypto you deposit.

How Long Do Deposits Take?

  • Cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay: minutes.

  • Bank transfer: minutes to one business day depending on the bank.

  • Crypto: as soon as the transaction confirms on-chain, usually under a few minutes.

Depositing with Co-Invest

Ask Co-Invest show me my deposit options in Claude, ChatGPT, or over iMessage. It offers a card onramp, a transfer from another app, or a USDC deposit address for the chain you choose.

Moving Funds Between Balances

Your trading balance and your prediction markets balance are separate. Move USDC between them, or into Liquid Earn, in a few taps from the Portfolio screen. You can also send money instantly to any other Liquid user by username.
