    *For certain cryptocurrencies, you will need to include more details than just the address:

    • Ripple (XRP) deposits need a ‘destination tag’ tag’      
    • Lumens (XLM) deposits need a 'memo' if you do not use a muxed address 
    • Stacks (STX) deposits need a 'memo'
    • EOS deposits need a 'memo'  
    Alternatively, you can also use the provided ‘QR code’. IMPORTANT: If you use the QR code for XRP and XLM ensure the tag/memo is included. For EOS, the memo will need to be manually typed in.
  5. 5
    Once you have initiated a valid transaction from your wallet, the deposit will be credited to your account when the minimum number of required confirmations has been reached.

Note:

  • If you didn't include the correct tag or memo, please create a support ticket.
  • The only way for a deposit address to be removed is for it to expire. Valid transactions sent to an expired deposit address can still be credited minus a fee.

Tokens sent from ICOs to a deposit addresses on Kraken are not recoverable.
