Possible Problems with Deposits
Most deposit issues on Stake are straightforward to resolve once you identify the cause. Below are the most common problems Indian players encounter and how to fix them.
- Deposit not reflecting in balance: Crypto deposits require blockchain confirmations before funds appear. BTC requires at least 1 confirmation, while TRC-20 USDT and TRX typically require 20 or more. Wait for the required confirmations and check the transaction status in your account history.
- UPI payment declined: Your UPI app or bank may block transfers flagged as international transactions. Contact your bank to request approval for international payment processing, or switch to a crypto deposit method.
- Incorrect wallet address entered: Sending crypto to a wrong or incompatible wallet address results in permanent loss of funds. Always copy the Stake deposit address directly from the cashier and verify the network (e.g., TRC-20 vs ERC-20 for USDT) before confirming.
- Deposit below the minimum limit: Transactions below the minimum deposit threshold are rejected automatically. Ensure your deposit meets the INR 100 minimum or the equivalent crypto value before submitting.
- Account verification pending: Stake may place a temporary hold on deposits if your KYC verification is incomplete. Submit the required identity documents in the verification section of your account to lift the restriction.
- Duplicate transaction error: Submitting the same deposit request multiple times can trigger a fraud flag. Wait at least 15 minutes between attempts and check your transaction history before resubmitting.

Does Stake charge any fees on deposits?
Stake does not charge platform fees on any deposit transaction. However, crypto network fees (gas fees) are determined by the blockchain itself and are not controlled by Stake. TRX and EOS typically carry the lowest network fees among available crypto options.

Processing times vary by blockchain. TRX and EOS deposits settle in 1 to 5 minutes. ETH and LTC deposits take 5 to 15 minutes. BTC deposits may take up to 30 minutes during periods of high network activity.
Do I need to complete KYC verification before making my first deposit?
You can make an initial deposit without full KYC verification. However, Stake may request identity documents before processing withdrawals or if your account triggers a security review. Submitting your KYC early avoids delays when you request a payout.
Is the 200% first deposit bonus automatically applied to my account?
The 200% welcome bonus up to INR 1,00,000 must be opted into before or during your first deposit. Navigate to the Promotions section of your account, activate the offer, and then proceed to the cashier. Deposits made without activating the bonus first will not qualify for the reward.
