Where to Look Up the TxID for Your Binance Deposit?
Binance requires a different number of blockchain confirmations for deposits to be credited, depending on the cryptocurrency and network used. To prevent double-spending risks, the platform sets a unique confirmation threshold for each asset, which you can view directly on Binance's deposit page or in your deposit history records.

1. First Step: Understand What "Blockchain Confirmation" Means
Transactions on the blockchain are not processed instantly. After you initiate a transfer, it needs to be packed into a block by miners, with new blocks continuously appended to the chain. Every new block added counts as 1 extra "confirmation" for your transaction.
The higher the number of confirmations, the harder it is to tamper with the transaction, and only then will the platform recognize the funds as secure and credit them to your account.
Key Pre-Note: Internal fund transfers within your Binance account (for example, moving funds from your Spot Wallet to your Futures Wallet) do not require any blockchain confirmations. Confirmations are only needed for on-chain deposits to Binance or on-chain withdrawals from Binance.
2. Second Step: Examples of Required Confirmations for Different Cryptocurrencies
Binance sets different confirmation requirements for different assets. Below are common examples:
| Cryptocurrency / Network | Required Confirmations | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| BTC (Bitcoin Network) | At least 2 confirmations | While BTC mainnet transactions are fully packed after 1 confirmation, Binance requires 2 confirmations to unlock funds for crediting |
| ETH (Ethereum Mainnet) | ~12 confirmations | Ethereum block time is roughly 12 seconds, 12 confirmations take 2 to 3 minutes |
| BNB Chain (BEP-20) | ~15-30 confirmations | BSC block time is roughly 3 seconds, meeting the requirement takes 1 to 2 minutes |
| ERC-20 Tokens | ~12 confirmations | Matches the required confirmation number for Ethereum mainnet |
Important Notice: The data above is for reference only. Actual required confirmation numbers may change due to network upgrades or platform risk control adjustments. Always refer to the real-time requirements displayed on Binance's deposit page.
3. Third Step: Where to Check Binance's Confirmation Requirements for a Specific Asset
You do not need to memorize the confirmation number for every coin, as you can look it up directly on Binance during your operation:
Check before making a deposit:
Open the Binance App or web platform, navigate to the [Deposit] page
Select the cryptocurrency and network you plan to deposit
The deposit page will display a clear notice stating how many blockchain confirmations are required for that asset to be credited
The page will also show the Minimum Deposit Amount — any deposit lower than this threshold will not be credited to your account even if the on-chain transaction succeeds
Check your deposit progress after sending funds:
Navigate to [Assets] → [Deposit History] or [Wallet Transaction History]
Locate the corresponding deposit record, click to view details, and you will get the TxID for that specific transaction
The system will display a progress bar showing Current Confirmations and Required Confirmations for the deposit
Completion Marker: Once the number of confirmations meets the requirement, the transaction status will update to "Deposit Successful".
4. Fourth Step: What to Do If Your Balance Does Not Update Even After Confirmation Requirements Are Met
If a blockchain explorer confirms your transaction is successful, and the number of confirmations already meets Binance's requirement, but your account balance has not updated, follow these steps:
Verify the deposit address and network: Confirm the address you sent funds to exactly matches the one displayed on Binance's deposit page, and that you selected the identical blockchain network
Confirm your deposit amount meets the threshold: Check if your deposit amount is lower than the minimum required deposit for that asset
Wait for internal processing: After the on-chain confirmation completes, Binance still needs to process internal fund aggregation, which usually takes 5 to 30 minutes
If funds are not received after 1 hour: Use your transaction TxID to submit a Self-Service Recovery Application, and the Binance support team will process it manually
FAQ
Q: BTC only requires 2 confirmations, but my blockchain explorer already shows 3 confirmations, why haven't my funds arrived? This is most likely caused by internal processing delays on Binance. First double check that your deposit address matches the one provided by Binance. If both the address and deposit amount are correct, and you still have not received funds after 1 hour, submit a self-service recovery application or contact Binance customer support.
Q: Ethereum mainnet transactions require 12 confirmations, how long does that usually take? Ethereum mainnet has an average block time of 12 to 15 seconds, so 12 confirmations take roughly 2 to 3 minutes. Wait times may extend significantly during periods of high network congestion. Layer 2 networks such as Arbitrum and Base have far shorter block times, so you will meet the confirmation requirement much faster on these chains.
Q: Where can I check the required confirmation number and minimum deposit amount? Navigate to Binance's [Deposit] page, select the corresponding cryptocurrency and network, and the page will automatically display the minimum deposit amount and required blockchain confirmations for that asset. It is recommended to check these details before every deposit, as Binance may adjust these parameters occasionally.
