Before You Start

Info

Polygon shares the same 0x address format as Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, and Avalanche. You must select "Polygon" as the network when sending — not "Ethereum" or another chain. Wrong network means lost funds.

Make sure you have the following before initiating a Polygon deposit:

  • A Peanut account. No identity verification required for deposits. You can deposit immediately after creating your account.

  • USDC or USDT on the Polygon network. These must be on Polygon (PoS), not Ethereum mainnet or another chain.

  • A wallet or exchange that supports Polygon withdrawals. Most major exchanges (Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, OKX, KuCoin) support Polygon.

    Tap "Deposit" from your home screen to reach the deposit options.

  2. 2

    Select Polygon

    Choose Polygon as the network. The app displays your EVM deposit address (0x format) — this is the same address used across Polygon, Arbitrum, Base, Ethereum, and Avalanche.

  3. 3

    Choose your stablecoin

    Select USDC or USDT. Both are accepted on Polygon.

  4. 4

    Copy the deposit address

    Copy the deposit address exactly as shown. This is your personal reusable address.

  5. 5

    Send from your wallet or exchange

    Open your wallet or exchange, select "Polygon" as the network, paste the Peanut deposit address, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction.

  6. 6

    Wait for confirmation

    Your balance updates automatically once the transaction confirms on-chain — typically under 5 minutes.

Confirmation Times

Polygon deposits are fast and reliable:

  • Typical confirmation: 1-5 minutes. Polygon produces blocks every 2 seconds. Most deposits appear in your Peanut balance within minutes.

  • Available 24/7/365. No business day restrictions. Deposits arrive any time of day, on weekends and holidays.

If your deposit does not appear within a few minutes, check the transaction on Polygonscan. If confirmed on-chain but not in Peanut, contact support with the transaction hash.

Fees

  • Peanut deposit fee: free. No fees from Peanut. Gas fees on the Peanut side are covered by Peanut.

  • Sender-side gas fee. You pay the Polygon network gas fee when sending — typically under $0.01 per transaction. Polygon consistently has some of the lowest gas fees among all networks. Gas is paid in POL (formerly MATIC).

  • Exchange withdrawal fee (if applicable). Most exchanges charge a small withdrawal fee for Polygon. This is typically lower than Ethereum mainnet withdrawals.
