Deposit Assets

Overview

BitGo enables you to deposit both crypto and fiat currencies. Your Go Account is the only wallet type that's multi asset and capable of holding fiat currencies. All other wallets are coin specific.

Depositing coins and tokens into a wallet requires you to get your BitGo wallet address and initiating the deposit from another wallet you control.

Depositing fiat currency into your Go Account requires a wire transfer from your bank account to a BitGo bank account. Your bank may charge a wire-transfer fee. Contact your bank to learn more. If you created your testnet enterprise through the Developer Portal, your Go Account automatically includes test fiat. To request more, contact support@bitgo.com.

Note: Before depositing other assets to your Go Account for trading, ensure the asset is tradable by calling the List Products endpoint. Depositing an unsupported asset may result in the asset becoming unrecoverable.
