# Deposit

> Getting SOL into your balance.

Open **Wallet → Deposit** and choose a chain. You get an address that is derived
for your account and does not change, so you can save it and top up whenever you
like.

## There is no "I've sent it" button

Ace Up watches the chain. Your deposit is detected and credited on its own,
normally within about 30 seconds of confirmation. There is nothing for you to
press, and nothing you can press to make it faster.

While the screen is open it shows **Watching for a deposit ● live**, so you can
tell the difference between "nothing has arrived yet" and "the screen is stuck".

If a deposit is seen but not yet credited, the wallet says so explicitly, with
the amount, the transaction, and when it becomes playable and withdrawable.

## After it lands

| | When |
| - | - |
| Playable | Immediately |
| Withdrawable | 60 minutes after the deposit |

The hold exists so a deposit cannot be bounced straight back out. It never stops
you playing. See [Holds and limits](https://aceup.mintlify.site/money/holds-and-limits.md).

## Topping up

Send more to the same address. Ace Up credits only the difference, so a second
deposit to an address that already had a balance credits the new amount and not
the total.

> [!WARNING]
>
> **Send only the named asset on the named network.** This is the one mistake
> that costs real time. Ace Up shows the chain ID and a link to the explorer on
> the deposit screen precisely so you can check your wallet is pointed at the
> right place first. If it goes wrong, [Wrong network](https://aceup.mintlify.site/money/wrong-network.md) is
> the recovery path.
