Important notice before making a deposit

  • While filling out the bank transfer form, make sure all details are the same as on your receipt. If any fields are different, it may result in a processing error or a delay.

  • For Individual accounts: We can only accept the payment sent from your personal bank account. If the name of the sender is different from the name of the account owner, we won’t be able to process the deposit.

  • For Corporate accounts: You can fund your Corporate CEX.IO account only by using your corporate bank account. If you fund a corporate CEX.IO account using your individual bank account, the deposit will not be processed.

These simple measures will ensure a flawless deposit experience.
