Troubleshooting
There are a few things to remember when making a bank transfer to your Crypto.com App:
Your Named Account: We can only accept transfers from bank accounts opened under your own name. 3rd party transfers (e.g. payments from your customers, salary transferred by your employer, etc.) will not be accepted. Specifically, we will not accept transfers from crypto exchanges (e.g. Kraken, Bittrex, etc.).
Common Issues: The most common reasons for your transfer being on hold are:
the name of your bank account does not fully match your name on our record
you sent the funds from a joint account
your transfer was not made from a bank, but a payments processing company
your transfer was not a CAD transfer or came from an unsupported institution (e.g. a crypto exchange)
You did not enter a correct Crypto.com identification number or Interac reference number
We currently only accept transfers from banks that support Autodeposit, refer to the list below. Non-Autodeposits won't be processed and refunds will take up to 30 days to appear in your bank account.
Please contact us via live chat or chat.crypto.com if you do not receive your unique Interac reference number via email or bank alert.
When contacting our support, please be ready to provide us with supporting documents (e.g. a bank statement) showing your full name, the bank account you made the transfer from, and - ideally - the transaction itself.
Your bank may charge you transaction fees. Please check with your bank before proceeding.
